And the fashion photographer turns out to have an impressive aristocratic heritage of his own.
Lubomirski, 42, whose official title is “His Serene Highness Prince Alexi Lubomirski” is descended from an influential Polish family who received their hereditary title in the 17th century.
Born in England, before moving to Botswana aged eight, Lubomirski now lives in New York with his wife and two sons.
The Royal wedding will take place at St George’s Chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle.
Prince Harry and Meghan have invited 600 select friends and colleagues to attend the ceremony, with a further 2,640 people invited to celebrate inside the castle walls.
