President Obama and his wife Michelle will not be invited to Prince William's wedding next year.

Royal sources revealed yesterday that the American President and his wife are not among the congregation as William's wedding to Kate Middleton is not classed as a 'state occasion' - as the Prince is not yet heir to the throne.

Courtiers suggested they are more eager to ask ordinary citizens and charity workers than foreign dignitaries and VIPs at  the 'people's wedding'.The Mail also understands that the couple are under no pressure to fill the 2,000 seats at Westminster Abbey with foreign dignitaries.

Despite the Obamas not being invited, a number of heads of state are likely attend the ceremony on April 29 in line with previous royal weddings, possibly including France's president Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni.

But the decision to exclude the U.S. President and his wife Michelle from the celebrations is a break from tradition.

     Thank god for that! The bill for this wedding is astronomical to start with, without us having to entertain this man and his ego, not to mention the entourage he'd bring with him. This is a day for the Brits Obama, you're not welcome.

You don't need the so called Prez of the USA there..trust me.  I don't blame the Brits for not extending a invite.  He is an abomination to the Presidency of the USA.  He is taking this country down one piece at a time.  Good for you UK!
