Royal family news points to Prince Harry somehow turning King Charles’ coronation into an event about the son rather than the father. And the self-obsessed Duke of Sussex even got his wife Meghan Markle to take his viewpoint. As a result, the California-based couple created their very own rule book for the coronation.
Find out what Harry decided about attending the King’s coronation. And learn how Meghan played along. Get all the details below.
Prince Harry – Wants HIS Rules Obeyed At King’s Coronation!
In what royal etiquette book does a prince decide what occurs at a king’s coronation? Although none such exists, that lack doesn’t bother Prince Harry. And so the Duke of Sussex teamed up with his wife Meghan Markle to establish ground rules for whether the couple will attend King Charles’ coronation, insiders told Sky News.
For instance, Harry and Meghan agreed that they don’t want to make a definite commitment just yet. But though the two remain hesitant about flying to London for the May 6 coronation, they do know one definite requirement rule for their attendance. And that involves the Duke of Sussex’s concerns about his welcome (or lack thereof).
“Harry has been very clear,” shared one source. “And his position hasn’t wavered. He isn’t going to come if he feels the atmosphere will be as toxic as it was during the Queen’s (Elizabeth) Platinum Jubilee and funeral.”
Queen Elizabeth’s – Platinum Jubilee Set Stage For Coronation Clash
Because of the Platinum Jubilee atmosphere, Harry feels hesitant about a repeat at the coronation. And that hesitation stems from what the Duke of Sussex views as a lack of attention. For instance, while the rest of the royal family celebrated Queen Elizabeth’s decades of devotion, Harry and Meghan got stuck in the background.
And the Duke of Sussex also observed the working royal family members standing on Buckingham Palace’s balcony. But Harry did not enjoy that privilege. And though he did get to introduce his daughter Lilibet to the Queen, Harry and Meghan did not join Charles and William for extended family time. That lack reportedly added to the strained relationships.
As a result of all these factors, the Duke of Sussex might even head alone to the coronation. And that would leave Meghan celebrating their son Archie’s fourth birthday. The youngster’s birthday occurs on the same day as the coronation. But regardless of whether Harry goes alone or with Meghan, the crowd likely will boo rather than cheer the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, claim insiders.
Prince Harry – Could Become ‘Unwelcome Distraction’ During Coronation
For instance, one insider shared that the British public no longer trust Harry. “Many people feel they can’t be trusted,” shared the source. As a result, the insider predicted that the Duke of Sussex “will likely be booed in the crowds during the coronation. And that will obviously be an unwelcome distraction. But on the other hand, you could say this is sort of a power play by King Charles,” noted the source.
And the power play theory rests on the King inviting Meghan and Harry. “Because by inviting them and them turning down the invitation, it looks like they have rejected the olive branch that’s so obviously been extended,” pointed out the insider. And the source also noted that Harry and Meghan always want to spin their own narrative to favor themselves.

NO NO NO
let the two of them stay in the background, as an American I am befuddled that the king would considering bowing down to Harry and Megs demands.
Nothing good will come of providing those two a stage and I have no doupt that that is what will happen. I am not a psychic and can still see that that would be disastrous.
Long live the king ! and and Harry goodbye.
Long live the king and so long Harry.
I don’t care whether they go or not, but let me say it was not the King’s power play that put them somewhere else, it was their own spoiled antics. It wasn’t anyone else’s fault for that there was no one to ride with to the church ( where they marched in all mic-ed up for Netflix and whoever else, it was their own spoiled antics. It is no one else’s job to apologize to them for the crap in the book that has piled back on their own heads…it was their own spoiled antics.it is their fault no one in Hollywood trusts them or wants them around after all their spoiled antics on the world stage. It is no one else’s fault that they got booed in England. It’s their own spoiled antics that brought that down. And just because people watched them in Netflix and bought the book, don’t mix up curiosity for people being fond of you or being in your corner cuz your own spoiled antics have brought this on you. Don’t be surprised if the boos are louder cuz you just called out the king. Don’t be surprised if the boos ar

Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera you spoiled rotten princeling.
The day belongs to King Charles IIi;
Prince Harry and his fabricated wife
need to stay in the US. They have done enough damage to the monarchy and
themselves due to their immature and narcissistic personalities.
Since their son’s birthday is on the same day as the coronation, May 6th, than they both need to stay “home” & take care of their family since that is what they have claimed to be the MOST important part of their lives!
Go ahead king Charles but think of this you we’re led to do wrong by Camille so why are you downing Harry,and it sounds like to me Megan is sick.I have no respect for any of you.There is only one king and that is God. 6
As a US Citizen it really doesn’t concern me either way.
However, the constant calling out of Harry and Meghan even by Americans is getting a bit ridiculous.
Queen Elizabeth II may have seemed to be everyone’s favorite, lovely, very stoic and proper longest reigning Monarch. She was never groomed for the position, but she certainly handled it exactly as it should have been handled.
However, I believe that there are some within the “firm” that are engaged in using the press to promote themselves while throwing other members under the proverbial bus.
Overall, I believe that William, Prince of Wales, is as emotionally damaged by his childhood and the loss of his mother as Harry is, but he will never admit it.
Why is it so hard to believe that Meghan was suffering from postpartum depression, and yet was told that she could not seek treatment. Doesn’t anyone remember that Queen Elizabeth and her sister, Margaret, had two female cousins who had special needs, and who were kept locked away from the family and the public rather than admit that they had special needs and get them the help and treatment they needed?
In regards to whatever Harry said in his memoir (which I haven’t read). I believe that he was talking about his true emotions regarding how his childhood experiences, the loss of his mother and always being made to feel less than William affected him emotionally. No one seems to remember that he was ready to give up his position as a “Senior Royal” when he was much younger, and serving in the military. It was his grandmother who requested that he reconsider and he did.
He’s been repeatedly told that he could not look into his mother’s death. That would certainly make me suspicious, especially since conveniently the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, enabled his father to marry Camilla without being considered a divorcee.
As for Meghan, she had her own money going into the marriage.
She had an awful lot to learn in a very short time. When she first was invited to spend Christmas with the family she got a quick lesson before entering the family “home” given by Fergie on how to curtsy. Well those in the UK maybe well aware of the importance of the curtsy, Meghan didn’t know everyone including family members greeted the Queen in this manner.
The entire House of Windsor is actually of German ancestry. They just changed their name to sound more English. These are all things that need to be considered before anyone picks a side or picks at individuals they imagine are creating a problem because we really don’t know the entire story, nor should we.
I honestly wish that people would just leave the gossip alone already.
