Prince Harry has been chosen as his brother's best man and Kate Middleton's sister Philippa will be her maid of honour at the British royal wedding on April 29.
    
Prince Charles's office made the announcement Monday, ending weeks of speculation.

Prince William and Middleton also named a number of bridesmaids and page boys for the nuptials at Westminster Abbey.

The bridesmaids include Lady Louise Windsor, 7, the daughter of the Earl and Countess of Wessex; Margarita Armstrong-Jones, 8, the daughter of Viscount and Viscountess Linley; Eliza Lopes, 3, daughter of Harry Lopes and Camilla Parker Bowles's daughter, Laura; and Grace van Cutsem, 3, a godchild of William's.

Page boys for the wedding will be William Lowther-Pinkerton, 10, the son of William's private secretary, and Tom Pettifer, 8, another of William's godchildren.

Officials said details about the bridesmaids' dresses and the page boys' uniforms will be made available on the wedding day.
