This could be even more star-studded than Harry and Meghan’s big day.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tied the knot last month at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, in quite possibly the most star-studded ceremony in history.

But it wasn’t Elton John’s performance or the official royal wedding photographs that got everyone talking. Instead it was the royal wedding guests, with attendees ranging from Victoria Beckham and Amal Clooney to Serena Williams and Oprah.

While the now Duke and Duchess of Sussex only tied the knot last month, focus has already shifted to the impending nuptials of Prince Harry’s cousin, Princess Eugenie, set to wed her partner Jack Brooksbank at the exact same venue this October.

While Princess Eugenie keeps a lower profile than her cousins, William and Harry, the 28-year-old does run in A-list circles, and on closer inspection it looks like there could be some very famous faces in the pews.

While royals from Kate Middleton and Prince William to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will of course be in attendance, it is expected that we will see celebrity pals from James Blunt, Pippa Middleton and Jack Whitehall to Jimmy Carr and Cara Delevingne in attendance.

And it could be an awkward day for the now Duke and Duchess of Sussex, as two of Prince Harry’s ex girlfriends, Chelsy Davy and Cressida bona, are expected to attend.

There are even rumours in fact that celebrity pals could be joining Eugenie as she walks down the aisle, with reports that singer Ellie Goulding was in the running for bridesmaid.

However, royal experts are suggesting otherwise, predicting that Princess Eugenie will be going traditional with her bridal party, most probably electing her sister Beatrice as Maid of Honour.

There’s no news as to what we can expect from the after party just yet but given that her teenage palace parties reportedly featured footmen serving bacon sandwiches in the early hours, we think it might just give Harry and Meghan's a run for their money.
