Yesterday, the British royal family is celebrating the first anniversary of the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla.
The ceremony was held at Westminster Abbey in London. On this occasion, a video was released in which Prince Harry was given little to NO screen time, which is surprising given that the younger son of the monarch and Princess Diana did not have an official role at the event as he has not been a working member of the royal household since 2020. This is a true putting down on the Prince who is not being liked lately. Especially because of his wife
Such relationships, such his role in the video. Last year, Prince Harry spent 28 hours in the UK, brought there by the coronation of Charles III. It is remembered how he walked into Westminster Abbey alone, and then, whether by accident or not, during the ceremony he was obscured by a huge candle.

The incident with the candle actually occurred at Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in 2022 in London, where Prince Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle, who was not present at the coronation, was also obscured by the candle that day. This is cited as a reason for her absence. The video honoring the coronation features a new song by Simon Armitage titled “Uninvited Guest,” according to the Daily Mail.
On May 8th, Prince Harry will be at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, which he sponsors. Meghan Markle will not accompany him at this event but will join him later in Nigeria, where they will both attend an event inspired by the competition.
The reason for her absence is said to be previous family scandals and her awareness of her unpopularity in Britain. Another potential reason is to avoid scandal and further distraction, especially as the royal family is currently dealing with difficult situations, with the monarch battling cancer (having recently returned to public duties) and Kate Middleton suffering from a serious illness.
The Mirror reported that even Kate and Prince William invited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to come to London with their children, Archie Harrison, who is celebrating his fifth birthday today, and Lilibet Diana, as they have not seen the boy and girl for a long time. This suggests a missed opportunity for reconciliation, although there are still hopes pinned on Harry’s arrival.
