On May 6, Charles III will be crowned in Westminster Abbey in London. A ceremony to which Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, although invited, have not yet responded present. Will they attend the coronation or not? A situation in all points uncomfortable for the new king …
On May 6, Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla will be crowned under the imposing vaults of Westminster Abbey in London. Many have been waiting with excitement for their invitation card, but many have been disappointed. The new monarch invited to his coronation only 2000 people, far from the 8000 guests invited to the coronation of his mother Elizabeth II in 1953. If Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have received their precious sesame, the couple in exile has not yet deigned to respond. The deadline would even be passed according to the British press. What to annoy Charles III and the organizers, who still do not know on what foot to dance.
Problem for Charles III, whether they are present or not, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry could overshadow his coronation. Either way, the new king would come out a loser. “For His Majesty, he’s damned if the Sussexes come, and just as damned if they don’t,” royal expert Daniela Esler reports The Express. If the exiled couple attends the ceremony, their behavior and attitude towards the royal family will be scrutinized and commented on extensively. But Charles III will be just as embarrassed if they don’t show up in London. “Their absence in Westminster Abbey would only underline how bad things are in the House of Windsor,” emphasizes the expert.
The surprise presence of Prince Harry in London
Prince Harry came to London as part of the lawsuit against the publisher of the Daily Mail, and met neither Charles III nor Prince William. But according to the British press, the Duke of Sussex was not there to mend fences with the Windsors but rather to restore his image and win back the hearts of the English. Without his wife Meghan Markle or his children Lilibet and Archie, Prince Harry slept at Frogmore Cottage, from which he was recently evicted, and took advantage of his presence to settle some private business. Nothing was revealed about a possible return… All eyes are now turned to the United States: what will decide the troublemaker of the crown?
