Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are “not wanted” by the British public at the King’s coronation, a royal author has claimed.
According to The Sun, while Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could attend the King’s coronation celebrations, the pair are “unlikely” to earn a top spot on Buckingham Palace’s balcony during the event.
But speaking to Sky News Australia, commentator and Sussex critic Angela Levin said the couple “can’t be trusted” – and would steal the limelight of His Majesty’s milestone ceremony.
The royal author said: “A lot of us in the UK – and I mean a lot – really don’t want them here at all. Because you can’t trust them, and they will report everything or do another documentary about it or another book and look for all the negative.
“Or they’ll just take attention away from King Charles. This is his moment; this is what he’s waited for since he was a little boy and watched his mummy in 1953. And he deserves to have the full attention of everybody around the world.”
However, another royal expert claims that Prince Harry can mend his relationship with the Royal Family.
Relationship expert Valon Asani spoke with The Mirror on how Prince Harry can follow five steps to mend his relationship with the royal family.
Mr Asani said that first Prince Harry and his family need to acknowledge and have sympathy for the struggles they’ve been through.
Then they need to find a “common ground” such as an activity over which they can bond over.
The next step is to reach out for an olive branch. Mr Asani explained that if Harry and Meghan are invited to the King’s Coronation, they should go.
He added how establishing boundaries and respecting them is another important step in reconciling.
The Duke of Sussex also referred to an unofficial biography by Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand published in August 2020 about his and his wife’s life in his memoir.
The book claimed that Meghan Markle underwent a “mock kidnapping” to prepare for “all high-risk security scenarios” making it an “extremely intense and scary” experience for her.
In his memoir Spare, Prince Harry hit out at the claims, writing: “A best-selling book describes the day Special Forces came to our house, grabbed Meg, put her through several intense days of drills, pushing her into back seats and car boots, speeding away to safe houses.”
But in reality, the Duke said the Duchess “wasn’t given one minute of training.”
He added: “On the contrary, the Palace floated the idea of not giving her any security at all because I was now sixth in line to the throne”.
