Meghan Markle has reportedly declined an invitation to attend King Charles III’s coronation, scheduled for May 6th, 2023. This decision comes amid ongoing tensions within the royal family, following Meghan and Prince Harry’s bombshell Oprah interview in 2021. In the interview, they made several serious allegations against the royal institution, including concerns about unconscious bias and the impact of Meghan’s royal role on her mental health.
According to insiders, Meghan was not satisfied with King Charles’ response to a letter she sent him, expressing concerns about unconscious bias within the royal family. This has led to her decision not to attend the coronation, despite being invited by the palace. Prince Harry, on the other hand, is expected to attend the event alone before returning to the United States.
Meghan’s absence from this significant royal event highlights the ongoing tensions within the royal family, despite Prince William’s previous statement that they are ‘not a racist family.’ The lukewarm reaction to the Oprah interview has reportedly left a sour taste in Meghan’s mouth, contributing to her decision to decline the invitation to the coronation.
It remains to be seen how the royal family will react to Meghan’s decision and whether it will further strain the already fragile relationships within the family.
