PRINCE HARRY’S

fellow Old Etonian Alexander Gilkes cut a solitary figure at the Royal Wedding.

He may have decided not to take his girlfriend, the Wimbledon champion Maria Sharapova, because of her intense off-court rivalry with fellow tennis star Serena Williams, who was there as a friend of Meghan Markle.

He may also have not wanted her to meet his ex-wife, fashion designer Misha Nonoo, another pal of Meghan.

I hear that Gilkes, 38, tried to make amends at the weekend by whisking Maria, 31, off to Paris, where they visited the Picasso Museum and sipped cocktails at The Ritz.
