Prince Harry and Meghan Markle invited to King Charles III's coronation
Prince Harry and his wife Meghan have been invited to his father King Charles' coronation, but a spokesman for Harry said on Sunday that they won't say for sure if they will go yet. Reports also say that Queen Consort Camilla will no longer be called "queen consort" and will just be called "queen."
In February 2022, a few months before she died, the late queen helped Camilla celebrate the 70th anniversary of her rule. At the time, the queen said it was her "sincere wish" that Charles's wife is called "Queen Consort" when her son takes over.
Preparations for the May event have been overshadowed by the couple's damaging comments about the King, Harry's older brother Prince William, and other royals in his recent memoir, a Netflix documentary, and a series of TV interviews.
People were wondering if Harry, who left his royal duties in 2020, would be invited to the coronation and, if so if he would go. This was because of his recent high profile and harsh criticism of his family.
They say that they got an email about the coronation on May 6, but they won't say if they plan to go or not. Some possible guests are being asked to "save the date" before they get official invitations, which will come later. Buckingham Palace won't say anything about invitations.
People have wondered if the US-based couple would be invited and if they would go to King Charles and Camilla's coronation as King and Queen Consort. Prince Harry and Meghan said in a statement that they had been asked about the coronation. A spokesperson for the couple said:
“„I can confirm the Duke has recently received email correspondence from His Majesty's office regarding the coronation. An immediate decision on whether the Duke and Duchess will attend will not be disclosed by us at this time.- Prince Harry and Meghan spokesperson
Prince Harry is no longer a "working royal," so no one knows what role he might play at the coronation if he comes back. Prince Harry and Meghan did not appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. The crowds will also see these traditional events as part of the coronation celebrations.
In an online interview on Saturday, Prince Harry said that he and his late mother, Diana, have always "felt slightly different" from the rest of their family. Last week, it also came out that Prince Harry and Meghan had been asked to leave their home in Windsor, Frogmore Cottage.
Conclusion
Even though there is still a lot of tension in the monarchy, King Charles III is trying to bring his family back together. Harry and Meghan were invited to King Charles' coronation in May. It's not clear whether or not the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be there.
Charles will be officially crowned on May 6 at Westminster Abbey in London. This is almost nine months after he took the throne after Queen Elizabeth II died.
