Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will “upstage” King Charles’ coronation, according to a royal expert

If the couple does attend the constitutional ceremony, it appears that they will try to divert attention away from the monarch.

The coronation takes place on May 6, which also happens to be Archie’s birthday.

Archie, whose full name is Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, will turn four later this year, and Harry and Meghan are expected to throw a party at Frogmore Cottage to commemorate the occasion.

The release of photos from the event, according to royal columnist Lee Cohen, could overshadow coverage of the coronation.

“It’s terribly petty, but the Sussexes, who no longer have their royal platform, seem to relish any opportunity to attempt to upstage a royal occasion”, he told the Express.

“It’s not as if the Royal Family seek occasions to upstage the antics of the Sussexes, quite the opposite.”

It would not be the first time the couple chose to hold their own celebrations on important royal dates.

During the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee last year, they celebrated Lilbet Diana’s birthday.

At Princess Eugenie’s wedding, the couple also revealed Meghan was pregnant with Archie.

One royal correspondent advised the couple against pulling any stunts.

“We might see them at one or two events but largely they will be kept in the shadows because they don’t want to take away from the historical event”, Royal correspondent Natalie Oliveri told the Express.

“It’s also Archie’s birthday too so they might host a little party at Frogmore Cottage like they did with Lilibet.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s attendance has been a source of much speculation.

Although official invitations have not yet been distributed, one royal commentator claims that King Charles wants his son to attend but not Meghan.

“Meghan believes the palace is only fighting to get Prince Harry to attend and doesn’t care if she shows up or not.” According to Kinsey Schofield of Fox News.

“That is not acceptable to her. One of Meghan’s biggest fears is rejection.”
