Prince Harry's Coronation 'demands' explained with less than half honoured as historical Royal event looms
Following months of speculation around whether Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle would be attending the historic Coronation next month, it was finally confirmed last week the Duke of Sussex will be in the UK for the event.
While some of the alleged 'demands' are perfectly reasonable and have been agreed upon by the Palace according to reports in the Mirror, Harry wasn't granted all of his wishes. During an interview with Tom Bradby on ITV earlier this month, Harry was asked if he will come to the coronation if he is invited, and he said: "There's a lot that can happen between now and then. But, you know, the door is always open. The ball is in their court.
Meghan Markle's invitation Despite tensions between the Sussexes and the rest of the Royal family being at an all-time low, the Duchess did in fact get an invitation to the Coronation next month. "Expect it to be a fairly quick trip to the UK for Prince Harry, who will only be attending the coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey."
Former head of royal protection for the Met Police, Dai Davies, said: "If Harry is as concerned about his safety as he has made clear to the High Court, then he faces the prospect of essentially living under house arrest when he’s in the UK. They will be placed so far apart according to the Daily Express that it will be almost impossible to catch a shot of the brothers together, and any hopes of awkward side glances will be non-existent.
An insider told The Mirror: "Harry has been very clear and his position hasn't wavered – he isn't going to come if he feels the atmosphere will be as toxic as it was during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and funeral." And we previously reported Archie and his sister Princess Lilibet, despite being new grandkids to the King, were not invited, with sources citing that the children are "very young".
It's also been reported that Charles had toyed with the idea to honour Archie at his post-procession Coronation lunch by raising a glass, but this is no longer being considered with Harry set to rush straight off after the 11am ceremony to celebrate with his son, while Meghan has decided to avoid the Coronation altogether.
