With a theme based on Virginia Woolfe’s Orlando – which sees its central character change sex – the former Suits actress, 38, is expected to adopt a “glamorous androgynous” look.
News of her invite comes a month after she and Prince Harry announced they were stepping back from their royal duties, and dividing their time between the UK and north America.
A source added: “The Met Gala is for the Who’s Who of showbusiness.
“Naturally Meghan was one of the first names on the guest list, and Edward’s team are excited that the two will go together.
Sources say she will be attending without Harry so ‘she can establish herself once more in Hollywood’
“Meghan is keen to step out occasionally without Harry so that she can establish herself once more in Hollywood.”
