Royal sources have confirmed to the Daily Beast that the reports that King Charles did not invite Archie and Lilibet to the crowning are accurate.
King Charles happily embraced the idea of having Prince William and Kate Middleton‘s children at the event.
Buckingham Palace rushed to confirm all of Camilla, Queen Consort‘s grandchildren, who are none royals, will take part in the most sacred moment of the ceremony.
However, King Charles has decided that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s children are too young to even be invited to participate in or witness the biggest moment of his life.
The media outlet shared: “Of course, one way Charles might have got his American grandkids to attend the coronation would have been to offer them a role in proceedings. Lilibet might be too young to be included, but Archie, who turns four on the day, could easily have been given a symbolic task alongside William and Kate’s children and Camilla’s grandchildren, who have all been given roles.”
Insiders say that King Charles opted not to invite the biracial grandchildren to the crowning because they would overshadow him.
The news organization noted: “Incredibly, however, The Daily Beast understands that the Sussex children were not invited to attend even fringe family events, let alone the coronation itself. Supporters of Charles argue that to offer the Sussexes a role would have been to risk the family drama overshadowing the solemn celebration of the day.”
However, His Majesty is trying to have a clear conscience and is feeding the media the narrative of the doting grandfather who would love to see Archie and Lilibet more often.
Yet, King Charles has all but certainly cut ties with his grandchildren by evicting them and their parents from Frogmore Cottage.
The Daily Beast pointed out: “But critics of the king might well respond that if he really wanted to see more of his grandchildren, he maybe shouldn’t have evicted their parents from their British holiday home, Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Estate.”
Royal observers ask the following question, how and when will King Charles ever see Archie and Lilibet if he keeps pushing them away from the family and the monarchy?
The media outlet added: “There is no doubt that obliging the Sussexes to vacate that house has not only made them feel very unwelcome but has also made it considerably harder on a practical level for the family to plan to spend any time in the U.K.
Indeed, most observers now believe that sightings of Meghan and her children on British soil over the next decade will be somewhere between few and none, and there is little prospect of Charles dropping in on Harry and Meghan in their Montecito home either.”
Many applaud Markle’s decision to teach her children a sense of dignity and pride by not going to a place where they are not wanted or welcomed.
