Catfight Between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle Over the Coronation?
The coronation of King Charles in May has sparked a rumored catfight between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle.
According to royal author Tom Bower, Kate Middleton, the wife of Prince William, was adamant that Meghan Markle should not attend the coronation.
Bower even suggested that Middleton played a role in Markle's decision to skip the event.
Describing Prince Harry's decision to attend the coronation alone as an “ugly compromise,” Bower expressed gratitude towards Middleton for preventing Markle from being present.
He emphasized the constitutional importance of Harry's presence in the royal family, stating that if something were to happen to the Cambridges, Harry would be next in line for the throne after Charles.
However, questions arise about Harry's responsibilities once he arrives in London.
Bower believes that recent arguments have attempted to downplay Harry's presence at the abbey.
The author speculates that if Markle were absent, Harry might address the crowd below Buckingham Palace.
Bower expresses concern about the potential conflict this could create, as it would require Prince Andrew to also be present on the balcony.
The focus ultimately shifts to King Charles and his reign.
Bower asserts that the coronation will determine how well-liked Charles is and whether he leaves a lasting impression as King Charles III.
The author raises the question of whether the public will accept him.
In other news, Princess Kate's choice to wear a traditional coronation tiara has caused some confusion.
Last-minute arrangements for King Charles' coronation are still being made, and the royal family has carefully planned their attire for the event.
Charles aims for a more understated coronation compared to previous ones.
Rumors circulate that some women, including Kate and Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, may not wear tiaras as is customary.
During the 1953 coronation, almost all women wore tiaras to emulate the crowning of George VI in 1937.
Disagreements and hesitations within the royal household have led to uncertainties about which tiaras the female royals will wear.
Senior female royals were only informed about their outfits recently, causing a rush to organize fittings.
However, there is a possibility that a daytime formal dress code will be established, replacing tiaras with hats.
Royal jewellery blogger Lauren Keena suggests that while tiaras may be absent, elaborate jewelry such as necklaces, brooches, and earrings could still be worn.
The attire of King Charles, Camilla, and Kate remains uncertain.
It is reported that Camilla will wear Queen Mary's crown, marking the first time a pre-worn crown is used to celebrate the coronation of a queen consort.
This decision reflects the less formal nature of the upcoming coronation.
As preparations for the coronation continue, all eyes are on the royal family and the dynamics surrounding this historic event.
The absence of Meghan Markle, the choice of tiaras, and the overall atmosphere of the ceremony will undoubtedly shape public perception of King Charles and his reign.
