Dan Wootton, a royal expert and broadcaster of a discussion program on GB News, reprimanded the Sussexes for having received an invitation to the event but not yet indicated if they would go.
Since the invitation to Meghan and Harry to attend the Coronation was made public two months ago, the pair has remained silent. The couple’s invite was confirmed, but a representative would not confirm if the pair will travel to Britain to see the historic occasion next month.
Dan Wootton, a royal expert, and talk show host has commented on the situation and said that the Sussexes “had their opportunity” to attend and should no longer be permitted to do so.
Mr. Wootton said, “King Charles ought to rip their invitation up.” “They’re attempting to convert the King’s Coronation, the most significant event in Charles III’s life, into a sideshow, a reality TV circus, and I feel like they’ve got their moment now and want to make it all about them.
King Charles could gently rescind the offer by sending a message via his courtiers that reads, “Look, you’ve had your time, we’ve given you weeks, and you’ve plainly chosen not to attend. The invitation is gone.”
Mr. Wootton, though, thinks this is an improbable possibility. The event is now less than a month away, and he believes Charles will let the pair, Register.
They’ll arrive and attempt to steal the show because that’s basically all they have going for them right now, said Mr. Wootton on Sky News Australia, “because King Charles is a big softie and he wants to do the right thing by his son.”
“They need to be close to the Royal Family if they want to retain those lucrative agreements coming in from companies like Netflix and Spotify, but personally, I believe if Charles had any common sense, he’d say ‘enough is enough’ now,” he said.
Despite being invited, it’s been reported that Meghan and Harry and the Palace are negotiating their participation in the celebration. Their participation on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the incident seems to be a sticking issue.
According to reports, 15 active royals, including Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and Prince Andrew, will be visible from the balcony of Buckingham Palace. It is anticipated that Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, Queen Consort, will also appear on the balcony with Princess Anne and her husband Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence.
Moreover, it’s possible that Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, who spent a lot of time with the late Queen before she passed away, may attend. Together with their children Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4, the future king and queen, Prince William and Princess Kate, will join them on the balcony. The King has been quite clear about who he wants to represent the monarchy, a person with knowledge of the preparations said, according to The Mirror.
