Duke and Duchess’ Attendance at King Charles’ Coronation Raises Concerns Among Royal Family

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, have left the royal family on edge as they remain undecided about attending King Charles' coronation on May 6th.

Although they have received invitations to the event, reports suggest that there are concerns within the royal family about their presence.

In a recent episode of the Pod Save the King podcast, co-hosts Russell Myers and Zoe Forsey discussed the potential reunion of Harry and Meghan with the royals.

Mr. Myers stated that while the couple has not made a final decision, it is certain that they will be invited to the coronation.

He emphasized that they would regret missing such a significant opportunity and questioned why they would pass it up.

Mr. Forsey added that regardless of any tensions, the coronation is a historic event that they would regret not being a part of.

However, there are indications that the Duke and Duchess would decline the invitation if they were to face the same uncomfortable atmosphere experienced during the late Queen's platinum jubilee celebrations and funeral.

Some members of the royal family still harbor deep feelings of hurt and believe that Harry and Meghan should not attend the coronation, fearing it may turn into a media spectacle.

Mr. Myers expressed his discomfort with this situation, as he believes it will likely be the same as previous events.

In his memoir, Harry expressed his desire for a sit-down conversation with his family, particularly his brother and father, to address the tensions between them and his wife.

He seeks apologies, reconciliation, or at least a willingness to reconcile.

Mr. Myers noted that no progress has been made since Harry's media interviews last month, and it seems unlikely that substantial discussions will occur before the coronation.

Harry's arrival at Balmoral after his grandmother's death did not receive a warm welcome from the family, even before the release of his book.

Mr. Myers questioned how the situation could be any different, considering these circumstances.

The cooling of tensions seems unlikely to happen anytime soon, and Harry may have to accept this reality.

Royal expert and commentator Fitzwilliams suggested that Harry might choose to stay home to avoid further public ridicule.

His concerns about security, especially after revealing his personal encounters with Taliban insurgents, could heavily influence his decision.

Despite the reports and concerns, some royal commentators believe that Harry and Meghan will ultimately attend the coronation.

They argue that it is a momentous occasion that they should not miss, regardless of any tensions.

It is expected that they will receive invitations, as the king would not want to exclude them.

Myers and Forsyth's comments reflect the ongoing speculation and curiosity surrounding the Duke and Duchess.

While some believe that the royal family has reservations about their attendance, others are convinced that Harry and Meghan will be present at the coronation.

Only time will tell if they decide to attend and what kind of reception they will receive from the royal family.
