On Saturday, Meghan Markle’s popular television show “Suits” will be made available for streaming, coinciding with King Charles III’s birthday parade.
This event, known as Trooping the Colour, holds significant importance as it marks the first time the parade will take place since Charles ascended the throne.
It also serves as one of the first major royal events following his coronation last month.
While Prince Harry attended the ceremony, Markle stayed home in California with their children.
Last month, Netflix announced that “Suits,” in which Markle starred from 2011 to 2018, would be added to their streaming service on June 17.
Previously, the show was available on other platforms such as Peacock.
However, series creator Aaron Korsche recently revealed that Markle had pushed for this specific release date, as she believed it would overshadow the king’s birthday celebration.
Korsche criticized her actions, calling her transparent and predictable, stating that she was attempting to outshine the royal family on a day of national celebration.
Furthermore, Korsche expressed regret for having worked with Markle, claiming that she was blacklisted within the industry after being banned from the event.
He stated that she would never work in Hollywood again, emphasizing that no director, producer, or studio executive wanted to associate with her.
Despite her attempts to contact industry insiders upon her return to Los Angeles, following her divorce from Prince Harry, Markle has failed to gain any traction in the industry.
Meanwhile, King Charles III celebrated his birthday parade on Saturday, June 17.
Riding on horseback, he inspected the troops, a tradition that had not been observed by a monarch since Queen Elizabeth II in 1986.
Accompanying Charles were his eldest son and heir, Prince William, his brother Edward, the Duke of Edinburgh, and his sister Anne.
Queen Camilla and Catherine, the Princess of Wales, followed in a carriage.
The Trooping the Colour parade, known for its regimental precision and pageantry, marked the beginning of Charles’s reign at the age of 74.
Although his actual birthday falls on November 14, British sovereigns celebrate twice, once privately and again publicly.
This June parade tradition dates back to 1748 when King George II desired a celebration during the summer months due to better weather conditions.
The televised event commenced with a procession from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade in central London.
A total of 1,400 soldiers, 400 musicians, and 200 horses participated in the parade, led by Juno, a 10-year-old shire mare, alongside three other drum horses named Perseus, Atlas, and Apollo.
These drum horses hold the rank of Major and are traditionally named after figures from Greek mythology, signifying their esteemed position within the army.
In conclusion, as the release of “Suits” coincides with King Charles III’s birthday parade, Meghan Markle’s attempt to overshadow the royal event has drawn criticism.
Meanwhile, King Charles III celebrated his inaugural birthday parade with a grand display of regimental precision and pageantry.
