哈里王子大婚在即 新娘梅根或打破王室传统在婚宴上演讲

Meghan Markle is expected to deliver her own speech at her wedding to Prince Harry – breaking centuries of tradition.

在与哈里王子的婚礼上，梅根.马克尔有可能发表个人演讲——这一做法将打破英国王室几个世纪以来的传统。

The former actress is understood to be ready to speak during a reception at Windsor Castle following the weeding ceremony on May 19 which is expected to be attended by 800 guests, The Sunday Times reports.

据《星期日泰晤士报》报道，这位前演员和王子的婚礼将于5月19日在温莎城堡举行，到场宾客人数预计达到800人。届时，梅根将会在婚礼之后的婚宴上发表演讲。

It is understood that Ms Markle’s 73-year-old father Thomas, a former Hollywood lighting director, is likely to walk his daughter down the aisle but is less likely to make a speech at the reception.

梅根73岁的父亲托马斯、这位好莱坞前灯光师，有可能会陪伴梅根走进婚礼的殿堂，但他可能不会在婚宴上讲话。

If her father will not speak for her, Ms Markle is understood to want to have the opportunity to thank Prince Harry, the Queen, her family and friends in an “affectionate” tribute – a move which breaks with regal customs.

如果父亲不为她致辞，据信梅根将会利用这个机会用很“深情”的方式向哈里王子、女王、她的家人和朋友致敬——而这一做法打了破王室的传统。

Ms Markle, who is expected to be made a Duchess on the day, might even dare to make a couple of jokes, the paper reports, and is said to have Prince Harry’s full support.

《星期日泰晤士报》报道，梅根预计会在婚礼当天被封为公爵夫人，在那天她甚至会讲几个笑话，而且这个想法还得到了哈里王子的全力支持。

Although this is no small feat for the American who will have to deliver the speech in front of hundreds of guests including the Queen, Ms Markle has some practice in public speaking.

对于这位美国前女演员来说，在包括女王在内的数百名宾客面前发表演讲是个不小的壮举，好在，她有一些公开演讲的经验。

A UN women’s advocate, Ms Markle promoted gender equality and publicly supported Emma Watson’s He For She campaign.

梅根是联合国妇女事业的倡导者，一直致力于推动性别平等，并公开支持艾玛.沃特森在联合国发表的“He For She”反歧视演讲。

In 2015, she gave a speech before the UN secretary general ban Ki Moon saying: “I am proud to be a woman and a feminist.... A wife is equal to her husband.”

2015年，她曾在前联合国秘书长潘基文发表演讲前讲话称：“作为一名女性和女权主义者，我非常自豪。妻子与丈夫的地位是平等的。”

Prince Harry is still to announce his best man and his brother Prince William is widely tipped to be among his top choices.

哈里王子仍未宣布伴郎人选，不过普遍认为他的哥哥威廉王子是首选。
