Royal Family News – Sussexes Determined That Their Little Ones Meet Queen Elizabeth
This comes just under two weeks after Buckingham Palace announced that only working royals would accompany the Queen on the palace balcony. Harry and Meghan will, of course, not be present as they stepped down as working royals two years ago in 2020.
However, the Sussexes are still due to visit during the celebrations as Harry is determined that his children, Archie, three, and 10-month-old Lilibet, come to know their great-grandmother the Queen. The spokesperson for the royal couple said that they are “excited and honored to attend the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.”

Unfortunately, according to Daily Express Columnist Carole Malone, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex would be “booed” should they appear on the balcony. On May 7 Malone wrote, “Of course, Meghan and Harry will hate the fact they’ve been lumped into the Bad Royals Box with Prince Andrew.”
She added that as “comparisons will be made” that Andrew, as well as Harry and Meghan, have all disgraced the Monarchy and “trashed its reputation and hurt people who did nothing to deserve it.” The royal expert continued by saying that it was “good” that the Sussexes wouldn’t be on the balcony as it would probably be the first time that a royal has ever been booed by the crowds.

Of course, the columnist may be slightly mistaken in that Prince William was booed just last Saturday, May 14 by football fans during the FA Cup final between Liverpool and Chelsea at Wembley Stadium. In response to Malone’s suggestive comments, Express UK ran a poll asking their readership whether they thought the Sussexes would be booed on the balcony.
