Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are facing a potential setback as their popularity dwindles, raising concerns about their future invitations to significant events.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, renowned for stepping back from their royal roles in March 2020, have experienced a sharp decline in public interest.

Renowned royal author Nicholas Owen has drawn parallels between their situation and that of Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson, suggesting a challenging road ahead for the couple.

In an interview with Sky News Australia, Nicholas Owen expressed his observations, stating that while there was initially a surge of curiosity surrounding Meghan and Harry, particularly following their headline-making conversation with Oprah Winfrey, sustaining this level of attention may prove challenging.

Drawing a historical comparison, Owen highlighted the parallels with Edward VIII’s abdication in the 1930s due to his marriage to an American divorcee, which led to a gradual fading of prestigious invitations and a sense of isolation.

The uncertainty surrounding Meghan and Harry’s attendance at the upcoming coronation adds another layer of complexity to their situation.

Following the controversial announcement of Harry’s memoir, questions have arisen regarding their potential presence at the ceremony scheduled for May 6th at Westminster Abbey, officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury.

The anticipation for the coronation has sparked plans for numerous street parties and a national call for unity during the coronation big lunch on May 7th.

Reports indicate that Harry has been engaging in discussions with representatives of his father, Prince Charles, regarding their possible participation in the event.

A spokesperson for the Sussex duo confirmed that they have been in correspondence with the King’s office regarding the coronation but refrained from disclosing any immediate decisions regarding their attendance.

The deliberations surrounding their presence at such a significant royal occasion reflect the evolving dynamics within the royal family.

As speculations mount regarding Meghan and Harry’s future engagements and royal interactions, the public remains intrigued by the unfolding narrative.
