Prince Harry’s absence is conspicuous in a groundbreaking documentary about King Charles’ coronation, despite his attendance at the event.
The BBC documentary titled “Charles III: The Coronation Year” is set to air on Boxing Day and promises exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of the royal family during the King’s coronation year.
It will showcase rehearsals leading up to the momentous occasion as well as the events that unfolded on the historic day in May.
Despite their strained relationship, Harry made the effort to fly from his home in California to London to witness his father’s crowning at Westminster Abbey.
He sat among other members of the royal family in the congregation but promptly returned home after the ceremony.
However, to the surprise of many, Harry does not make an appearance in the documentary, as reported by the Telegraph.
Both Harry and Prince William declined to participate in on-screen interviews for the documentary.
It is believed that William’s household wanted the focus to remain solely on his father during his coronation year.
Nonetheless, the Welsh family still features prominently in the program.
One key figure interviewed is Prince San, shedding light on the late Queen’s final days before her passing at Balmoral in September 2022.
She divulges the Queen’s apprehension about dying at Balmoral but ultimately relinquishing control to Charles.
A source close to the royal circle revealed that Harry was merely a guest and no longer considered a member of the family, hence his exclusion from the palace.
This also translates to his absence from King Charles’ video.
Meghan Markle was reportedly upset by this development since her intention in allowing Harry to return to the UK for the coronation was for him to be in front of the cameras.
Harry’s appearance in the BBC’s behind-the-scenes footage would have served as valuable material for their upcoming project in 2024.
Unfortunately, Meghan’s wishes were not fulfilled.
In a separate development, there have been reports that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle might make an unexpected move as they are allegedly not invited to the royal family’s Christmas celebration.
Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams cautioned that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex could take a questionable step as they face challenges in Hollywood and encounter a deepening rift with the royal family.
He dismissed the earlier suggestion that the Sussexes would join the rest of the royal family for Christmas, deeming it absurd.
Fitzwilliams further pondered on the couple’s unpredictable nature and what their next move might be.
Harry and Meghan, who stepped back from their senior royal roles in 2020, continue to fuel the ongoing dispute with the royal family by remaining silent on allegations of discriminatory conversations regarding their son, Archie.
The couple’s silence has cast a negative light on the royal family, exacerbating the strain in their relationship with Harry and Meghan.
In conclusion, Prince Harry’s absence from King Charles’ documentary has raised eyebrows, considering his attendance at the coronation.
The decision not to feature him or include his interview in the program has sparked speculation about the state of his relationship with his father and the royal family.
Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan’s exclusion from the royal family’s Christmas celebration adds another layer of complexity to their already tumultuous journey outside the monarchy.
The couple’s silence on discriminatory claims continues to generate controversy and deepen the divide between them and the royal family.
As the Sussexes navigate their new lives in Hollywood, the question remains: what surprising twist will they take next?
