Prince Harry And Meghan Markle ‘Warned Not To Attend’ King Charles’ Coronation After…

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been warned not to attend King Charles’ coronation next year, amid the backlash surrounding their Netflix Harry & Meghan docuseries as well as further anticipated backlash from his bombshell memoir Spare, which is due to be released on January 10th, 2023.

Royal Experts Say Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Will Not Be Welcomed At King Charles’ Coronation

King Charles’ coronation is due to take place on May 6th, 2023, but royal experts have suggested that he has already been warned about what inviting Prince Harry, 38, and Meghan, 41, and their two children, Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 18 months would do for the event, as their Netflix docuseries has *not* gone down well with the public.

“If King Charles wants to leave a door open to Harry and Meghan or invite them to his coronation that’s up to him,” royal expert Phil Dampier said. “But don’t be surprised if they get a hostile reception from the public,” he added, with many other people suggesting that the Sussexes should expect a chorus of boos if they attend.

Experts Say The British People Do Not Want Them There

Former conservative politician David Mellor also made similar comments, adding that the British public are not fans of the Sussexes, and do *not* want them there to dampen the happy mood of the coronation or pull focus from the new King.

“They make money out of selling their family down the river. I think it should be made clear that the British people do not want them there,” Mellor told the Daily Mail. “They shouldn’t come to the coronation. They categorically shouldn’t come,” he added, before going on to say that the British people “would be perfectly entitled to boo” them if they decide to attend the coronation. Wow!

Other people, on the other hand, don’t think the British people will have anything to worry about, as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex may not even want to attend given how they feel about the royal family and the late Queen’s legacy, after branding the Commonwealth ‘Empire 2.0’ in the docuseries. “If they dislike the Royal Family so much why would they attend the coronation?” former Conservative Party Leader Iain Duncan Smith asked when talking to the Daily Mail.

British author Lady Antonia Fraser was a little blunter, frankly saying that she hopes “they don’t come” because she wants “the King and Queen to be the center of attention. It worries me that if they come the cameras might waste time on them. They should stay holding hands in Hollywood.”

Controversy Following The ‘Harry & Meghan’ Docuseries

The Sussexes have already come under fire for the first part of their docuseries after the first three episodes premiered on December 8th (the remaining three will premiere on December 15th, FYI) with one of the controversial moments consisting of the Duchess of Sussex almost mocking her curtsy to the late Queen Elizabeth II the first time they met. Meghan recalled how she found it quite bizarre that Prince Harry would have to bow to his own grandmother, and spoke about the moment she had to practice her curtsy before she met the Queen for the first time, demonstrating the movement in a very dramatic and over-the-top fashion.

Gyles Brandreth Says Meghan’s Curtsy Was ‘Embarrassing’

“It’s embarrassing, because it is mocking – and nobody curtsies to the Queen like that, and nobody would have advised her to do it that way,” royal author Gyles Brandreth told TalkTV about that particular moment in the docuseries. “He would know that the bow, as it were, is a brief nod and the curtsy is to show respect for the sovereign,” he continued, in reference to Prince Harry. “And in the case of the Queen – a lady in her 90s who actually had earned respect through a lifetime of service, and that was it. To do this sort of mocking thing is uncomfortable, but it is a cultural difference,” he added. “It’s like you would do a curtsy if you were playing in Snow White.”

True Royalty TV Co-Founder Says Prince Harry And Meghan Are ‘Hypocritical’ And The Docuseries Provides Nothing New

Royal expert and True Royalty TV co-founder Nick Bullen criticized the docuseries as a whole – not just the curtseying moment – telling Fox News Digital that he thought it was the “most enormous pile of self-serving twaddle that I’ve watched in quite a long time,” suggesting that it didn’t offer anything new, and was just “rehashed” content from the infamous Oprah Winfrey interview in March 2021.

“I mean, please, how much of this have we heard before? I think Netflix is probably really angry with the Oprah interview because she got all the really juicy stuff,” he continued. He went on to say something that many other critics of the docuseries have said, which is that inviting the cameras into their home and showing the world their private pictures and text messages is hypocritical given their request for a more private life since stepping down as senior royals.

“The thing that is most shocking to me, though, is that this is a couple who left for a private life,” Bullen said. “They were fed up with the press intrusion and wanted their privacy. And in this series, they’ve not only opened up their home, but they’ve revealed their text messages, they’ve shown photos from their most private moments – there are even photographs from the moment that Harry went down on one knee to propose. It’s just hypocritical beyond belief that they wanted privacy and now they are opening up every single aspect of their lives.”

Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Could Be Stripped Of Royal Titles Amid Backlash

Their worst fears might soon be coming true, as many, many people think Prince Harry and Meghan should be stripped of their remaining royal titles following the controversy. Conservative MP Bob Seely said he is planning to bring forward legislation in an attempt to strip the Duke and Duchess of Sussex of their royal titles by amending the 1917 Titles Deprivation Act. “There is a political issue,” he told the PA news agency. “As well as trashing his family and monetizing his misery for public consumption, he is also attacking some important institutions in this country.” He went on to ask why Prince Harry continues to use his royal titles despite trashing “the institution of monarchy and his family.”
