Upon hearing the news Prince Harry put a ring on it and asked Meghan Markle to marry him on Monday night, it took Twitter precisely two nano seconds to explode with happiness.
Then came the gifs…

I wonder if Prince Harry and Megan will decide to invite The Obamas instead of the Trumps to the #royalwedding ???? pic.twitter.com/zNSjDjzDTP

I can't see a reason why Trump would be invited at all. Harry isn't a future monarch, so the guest list is likely to be made up of friends and family, along with representatives from other royal houses. The US isn't a Commonwealth country, so no need to invite on that front either. The Obamas could make the cut if Harry's formed a personal relationship through the Invictus games.
Maybe they'd get an invite because Meghan is American? I checked to see if the President was invited to Prince Andrew's wedding (also a second son), and Nancy Reagan attended - perhaps Melania will go but no Donald? Oh well, if he doesn't get invited we can look forward to the "I didn't want to go to the stupid wedding anyway" tweet!
