The official statement released by the Palace states, “The Order of Service was produced before it became clear that Mr. Thomas Markle would be unable to attend the wedding on medical advice. As a result, some aspects will be different to what has been printed. As previously announced, Ms. Markle has asked The Prince of Wales to accompany her down the aisle of The Quire.”
