Former leader of the Brexit party, Nigel Farage, has voiced his expectations for the upcoming coronation and called for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to be ruled out of appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony.
Farage, who was previously the leader of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), joins the growing chorus of voices demanding that the couple, who are no longer working royals, respect the historical significance of the event by abstaining from participation.
During an appearance on the Fox Business Network, Farage emphasized that the balcony is traditionally reserved for working members of the royal family.
He cited the iconic image of the late Queen alongside Winston Churchill on VE Day, highlighting that she was a working royal at the time.
In contrast, Harry and Meghan have chosen a different path, opting for a new life on the west coast of America.
While they are welcome to attend the coronation at the Abbey, Farage argues that they should not be granted access to the balcony.
The debate surrounding the couple’s involvement in the coronation has intensified following the release of Prince Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” which quickly became the world’s fastest-selling non-fiction book.
In this memoir, Harry made several shocking revelations, including a physical altercation between himself and his older brother, Prince William, as well as claims that Queen Camilla has snubbed him.
Addressing the claim made by royal author Tom Bowe that Charles is fearful of not inviting Harry, Farage agreed with Bowe’s assessment.
He acknowledged that it would go against every paternal instinct for Charles to exclude his own son from such a significant event.
However, the concern lies in the possibility that Harry and Meghan may attempt to cause a scene and disrupt what is expected to be a global spectacle watched by billions of people.
Farage concluded that it is highly likely that Harry and Meghan will attend the coronation, and all that can be done is to hope that they behave appropriately.
The Buckingham Palace has yet to announce who will join King Charles on the balcony during the event.
However, it is expected that his wife, Queen Camilla, and son-in-law, Prince William, will be in attendance.
The coronation itself is a symbolic religious ceremony that marks the crowning of the sovereign as monarch.
It is a momentous occasion that will capture the attention of people around the world.
One of the most anticipated moments of the event is when the crown is first placed upon the monarch’s head.
In conclusion, as preparations for King Charles III’s coronation continue, the question of whether Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be present on the Buckingham Palace balcony remains unanswered.
Nigel Farage’s call for their exclusion has added fuel to the ongoing debate surrounding their involvement.
While the final decision rests with Charles, concerns persist over the potential disruption that Harry and Meghan’s presence may bring to the historic occasion.
