King Charles Bars Harry and Meghan from Trooping the Colour 2024

Amidst royal tensions, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were recently seen engaging in a heated argument while in a car.

This altercation followed an announcement by King Charles that the couple would not be permitted to participate in the upcoming Trooping the Colour event in 2024.

The Trooping the Colour is a longstanding tradition, dating back to 1748, where a military parade is held in London to celebrate the reigning monarch's birthday.

It is considered a prestigious royal engagement that is broadcast globally.

Typically, members of the royal family, both working and non-working, come together on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to witness the flyby and interact with the crowds.

However, reports have surfaced suggesting that King Charles has made it clear that he does not want Harry and Meghan to have any official role during the 2024 Trooping of the Colours, which will be the first time the event takes place during his reign.

According to sources cited by the Daily Mail, King Charles has relayed his decision through a senior ministry advisor, specifying that Harry and Meghan should not be included in the balcony arrangements or any official capacity at the event.

Since stepping down as high-ranking working royals and relocating to the United States in 2020, Harry and Meghan have not participated in any military activities.

The upcoming Trooping the Colour event was anticipated to be a significant moment for Harry and Meghan, as it would have been their first opportunity to partake in such festivities under Queen Elizabeth's rule.

Normally, all monarchs, heirs, and spouses, along with other working royals, gather on the balcony during this event.

Harry and Meghan likely expected to attend as representatives of the British royal family on the global stage.

However, King Charles' decision to exclude them from the event has been interpreted by some experts as a deliberate move to diminish their status within the monarchy.

It has been suggested that King Charles does not want Harry and Meghan to enjoy the privileges associated with their royal positions without fulfilling their official duties.

Individuals close to the couple have expressed discontent with the decision, labeling it as petty and vindictive.

They believe that Harry and Meghan are being unfairly sidelined.
