British royal family news reveals that the world heaved a collective sigh yesterday when the Markles made clear their travel plans for King Charles’ May 6 coronation: Harry will be there, Meghan won’t.
Buckingham Palace confirmed the news, and we can all stop speculating about will they or won’t they attend and start speculating on how each Markle will steal Charles’ thunder on his big day. Because you know they will.
Royal Family News: Diva Meghan Stays Home
There’s been lots of conjecture about the royals’ feelings about this turn of events with most royal experts relaying that the fam must be relieved to no end to not have to deal with Diva Meghan in person. That makes sense given how Meghan has trolled them endlessly since Megxit.
But now comes precise and incendiary word from royal author Tom Bower that one of the senior royals put their foot down and “prevented Meghan coming and said she wouldn’t have her there under any circumstances.”
According to the expert, it was mild mannered Kate Middleton who declared the coronation a Meghan-free zone.
Royal Family News: Did Kate Reject Meghan?
How seriously should royal fans take this shocking revelation? For one thing Bower’s assertion contradicts what a source told Page Six about Meghan and Harry making their own “authentic” decision, one “they made together as a family.” So, you be the judge.
Bower also stated that “Harry’s presence is constitutionally important” because he is in the line of succession. “The question is, what is role will be when he gets to London? and I think that the arguments over the last few days have been very much to minimize his presence in the Abbey.”
Royal Family News: Harry Is Minimized
If that sounds harsh, consider that Harry has trash talked his family for years and even published some of Kate’s private emails in his salacious bio Spare.
What we do know for certain is what Buckingham Palace said via a statement about Prince Harry’s attendance: “Buckingham Palace is pleased to confirm that The Duke of Sussex will attend the Coronation Service at Westminster Abbey on 6th May. The Duchess of Sussex will remain in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.”

I doubt very much Kate has that much power. I bet every single major royal, from Charles, all of his siblings, Camilla, William and Kate are delighted the trouble maker is not attending. Megan is a self centered narcissist.
