Prince Harry and
Meghan Markle are unlikely to be hitting the red carpet for the staple event at this year's
Met Gala due to ongoing "drama" with the royal family. The annual fundraising gala held by
Vogue is "Hollywood's most prestigious red carpet event", but the Duke and
Duchess of Sussex "aren't likely to attend" this year, says a PR expert. The Met Gala will be taking place just five days before King Charles' Coronation, with Harry and Meghan's rift with the
