Will Prince Harry and Meghan attend King Charles' coronation?

Oprah Winfrey gives honest opinion on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s coronation dilemma

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have a close friendship with Oprah Winfrey, who recently discussed whether the couple should attend King Charles’ coronation in May.

Following the publication of the comprehensive book Spare and the docuseries Harry & Meghan, Oprah was asked about whether they would appear and meet up with their family during an interview with Gayle King on CBS Morning.

“Do you believe they ought to go or ought not to go? Do you have anything to say about it? I’m hearing you, “Gayle, a close friend of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, commented.

Which Oprah answered: “I believe they should act in a way that they and their family feel is best. That is my opinion.

“In the end, it all comes down to that. What do you believe to be the best course of action for you?” Next she added: “They did not solicit my opinion. They haven’t, in fact.”

King Charles’ invitation to his son Harry and daughter-in-law Meghan to attend his coronation, which will take place at Westminster Abbey on May 6th, was made public earlier this month.

However, a couple representative would not confirm if they would go. It was said: “I can attest that The Duke recently received email communication from His Majesty’s office regarding the coronation.

We won’t immediately announce whether or not The Duke and Duchess will attend, according to our statement.

Given the allegations Harry has made about the royal family in his memoir Spare, in numerous TV interviews, and on the couple’s Netflix show, there was much speculation about whether the couple would even be invited.

The Sussex family’s relationship with the royal family has deteriorated over time. Harry and Meghan retired from their royal responsibilities in March 2020 and have been residing in Montecito since then.
