After weeks of tense speculation, Prince Harry is confirmed to attend King Charles III’s coronation.
However, Meghan Markle will not join him.
“Buckingham Palace is pleased to confirm that the Duke of Sussex will attend the coronation service at Westminster Abbey on May 6,” a palace spokesperson tells Pvnew.
“The Duchess of Sussex will remain in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.”
This will be Harry’s first reunion with members of the royal family since the January release of his blockbuster memoir, “Spare.”
As Pvnew revealed, the decision was made after Harry sent over a laundry list of questions to Buckingham Palace, including where he would sit and what security would be provided.
It’s believed Harry will stay at Frogmore Cottage, his Windsor home, for the very last time, as Charles has asked him and Markle to move out.
This means palace officials will be able to take a breath after a difficult few months.
Harry, 38, made a series of damning claims about his father, his brother, Prince William, and his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, in his book.
They include saying that Charles had been a distant parent and revealing an alleged physical fight with William, as well as claiming it was William and Kate who persuaded him to wear his now-infamous Nazi party costume.
Harry, who quit royal life with Markle for a new life in California in March 2020, has said he expected an apology from his family.
While Harry is not believed to have spoken to his father and brother, it has already been made clear that he will not be allowed to stand on the palace balcony next to the king and Queen Camilla because he is no longer a working royal.
The monarch will be joined by a select few who show the “heartbeat and future of his family” and who have dedicated their lives to public service.
Charles and Camilla, 75, will arrive at Buckingham Palace from Westminster Abbey in a gold state coach, followed by family.
At Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022, Harry and Markle were relegated to the second row at the service, also at Westminster Abbey.
