Royal Family LIVE: Charles in Coronation dilemma as Sussexes threaten to 'overshadow' day


King Charles is facing the prospect of having his Coronation “overshadowed” by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, a royal expert has said. And Daniela Esler has warned the monarch he is currently in a no-win situation when it comes to his son and daughter-in-law.

Writing for the New Zealand Herald, and with the Coronation barely a month away, Ms Elser said: “For His Majesty, he is damned if the Sussexes do come, and equally damned if they don’t.

“Should Harry and Meghan front up in their best bib and tucker and with their bravest faces plastered on, their presence back in the royal midst will be the only story people really care about.”

She continued: “Charles will be in obvious danger of having his august moment overshadowed by his pouty, lip-jutting son and his couture-clad daughter-in-law.

“But … he is equally stuffed if they don’t turn up in London. Their absence inside Westminster Abbey would only really drive home how badly broken things are inside the House of Windsor.”
