Sources close to those planning the Coronation of King Charles III have claimed that Meghan Markle was “never likely” to attend the event after being put in an “impossible situation” by the royal family.

It has emerged that Prince Harry had been in talks with Buckingham Palace over the arrangements for the event, including security and family concerns. Buckingham Palace announced that Harry would be in attendance for the ceremony, but Meghan will stay in LA with their children, whose fourth birthday is on the same day as the Coronation.

Decision influenced by Archie’s birthday

Harry and Meghan’s friend Omid Scobie confirmed that Archie’s birthday played a factor in the couple’s decision not to attend the Coronation, and he expected it would be a “fairly quick trip to the UK” for Harry.

Reactions to the announcement

Reacting to the announcement, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams expressed that King Charles would be pleased that both his sons would be present at his Coronation.

He described the event as “the crowning moment of his life.”

He also stated that Meghan being with Archie on his fourth birthday was an “ideal compromise.” However, Fitzwilliams expressed doubts about the possibility of reconciliation between the Sussexes and the royal family, citing the highly publicised attacks made by the couple.
