CORONATION OF CHARLES III

WITH HARRY BUT WITHOUT MEGHAN

On the program are three days of festivities, a ceremony at Westminster Abbey broadcast on television around the world, friendship lunches, a major concert at Windsor Castle and a call for volunteers.

Even Prince Harry, withdrawn from the British monarchy, will attend the coronation of his father Charles III on May 6, 2023 at Westminster Abbey in London, Buckingham Palace announced.

"The Palace is pleased to confirm that the Duke of Sussex will attend the Coronation," the Crown wrote in its statement.

His wife Meghan Markle will not accompany him, on this day which will also mark the fourth birthday of their son.

As with all important events involving the Royal Family, members of the British Crown will gather at Buckingham Palace after the ceremony on Saturday May 6, 2023. A procession will therefore leave from the heart of London to reach the palace, where the Windsors can wave to the crowd from the balcony.

But not everyone will be invited to sit around Charles and Camilla.

Despite the wind of modernity that Charles III wants to blow on the British monarchy, there is no question of making the coronation a family event, it is a state event.

This is the reason why only prominent members of the family who are very active in the Firm will have a place on the balcony.

Prince Harry should therefore not take part in the procession leaving Westminster Abbey at the end of the ceremony, nor appear on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for the traditional salute to the crowd.

Especially since the relations between the neo-Californians and the British royal family have suffered from the very intimate revelations made by the youngest of Charles III and Lady Diana in The Substitute.
