哈里王子婚礼空座位留给戴安娜？肯辛顿宫：女王前面不能坐人

在数百位名流贵宾和全球观众的注视下，哈里王子与梅根•马克尔19日在温莎城堡的圣乔治教堂举行婚礼仪式。两人深情对视，许下了永恒的爱的誓言。

眼尖的网友发现，在哈里与梅根的婚礼上，女王前面空出一个座位，不少网友猜测，这个位子是为哈里已故的母亲戴安娜王妃留的。

As Meghan Markle met her prince at the altar, cameras showed Prince Charles, Camilla and Kate looking up at the happy couple.

当梅根在婚礼殿堂见到她的王子时，摄像机拍到查尔斯王储、卡米拉和凯特正注视着这对幸福的夫妇。

Royal fans said the sentimental move left them "tearful" and "thinking of the late princess".

There was also speculation the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge did the same at their wedding in 2011.

还有人猜测，威廉凯特2011年大婚时也做了同样的事。

瞬间，全球各地的网友都被这个“空位子”暖到了，他们纷纷跑到推特上留言，表示被感动的一塌糊涂……

事实上，这只是一场误会。英国《镜报》转引消息人士称，留出空座位只是为遵循皇家礼仪。

According to Buckingham Palace sources, the spot in front of the Queen is always left empty.

据白金汉宫消息人士透露，女王前方的位置始终是空的。

不过，哈里的确在婚礼上缅怀了戴安娜。据英媒报道，梅根手里捧着的花束，就是哈里亲手从母亲戴安娜的花园中摘下的，是戴安娜最喜欢的——勿忘我。
