Why is Sarah Rafferty not Meghan’s maid of honour?

There were rumours that Sarah would be chosen to be Meghan's right-hand girl for the big day.

Unlike Kate, who had younger sister Pippa Matthews by her side at her wedding, Meghan will be going it alone.

"Ms Markle will not have a Maid of Honour,"; a Buckingham Palace spokesperson told Cosmopolitan.

"She has a very close-knit group of friends and she did not want to choose one over the other.

"They have all been actively involved in helping her prepare and will be there with her to celebrate on the day."
