New Delhi, Aug. 17 -- Prince William and Prince Harry could soon be in the same room, all courtesy of the Duke of Westminster. The Daily Beast reports that Britain's richest aristocrat, Hugh Grosvenor - "Hughie" to his friends - has asked William to be godfather to his newborn daughter. What's less clear is whether he plans to extend the same invitation to Harry.

The Grosvenor fortune-over £10 billion-is tied to centuries of royal favor, and Hughie himself is King Charles' godson. That reality makes it hard to imagine him risking William's trust by staging what could look like a social ambush. The British aristocracy tends to stick with the Crown, and William is its heir.
