After the death of the queen, things began to be put in place for the coronation of her son, King Charles III. With this being such a monumental occasion, many assumed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would attend, but that’s not the case. While Harry will be there supporting his father in the upcoming ceremony, Meghan has opted to stay in California, per the Daily Mail.
According to the outlet, Buckingham Palace released a statement confirming Prince Harry’s attendance and briefly explained why Meghan would be missing from the coronation. The statement read, “Buckingham Palace is pleased to confirm that The Duke of Sussex will attend the Coronation Service at Westminster Abbey on May 6th. The Duchess of Sussex will remain in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.” While there’s plenty of speculation surrounding Meghan’s absence, one prominent reason she may be missing out on the big day is due to Prince Archie’s birthday, which lands on the coronation date, per People. Although it’s unclear who made the final call to have Meghan absent from the ceremony, it’s clear her priority is on her kids.
