I think Harry would almost certainly have told his brother and Kate and his father, ahead of time, as well as his grandparents.
Look, IMO the media goes with anything that produces clicks and which sells. The 'controversy' over the announcement at the reception helped guarantee quite a few clicks for the tabloids I think, which went on for days, until it was stopped by Eugenie's Like in the Meghan fan page, which was widely reported.
However, the media goes ultimately with what sells, especially the print media which is fighting for survival. Would publicity over Eugenie's wedding have continued for a week or more, would she have been on the cover of countless magazines, British and foreign? I'm sorry but I just don't think so. She simply isn't that well known. The cover of Majesty magazine or similar? Probably. Other prominent publications. Probably not. IMO.
