Meghan has “done the right thing by not making herself the story.”
It was no doubt a difficult decision, but, a royal expert says, the right one: Prince Harry will attend his father King Charles’ Coronation on May 6 at Westminster Abbey in London, while wife Meghan Markle will stay behind in California.
“I think Meghan not attending is a huge relief for everybody involved,” said Nick Bullen, the editor-in-chief of True Royalty TV, speaking to“She knows that is she turns up, the story will become about her. All cameras will be trained on her to see, you know, ‘How does she look? Is there a nervousness in her eyes?’ All those things.”
Bullen added that attendees would have focused on how Meghan interacted with members of the royal family, including the Prince and Princess of Wales. “Then [the would be] shots of, ‘Does she give side eye to Kate or does Kate give side eye to her?’” Bullen said. “Everything will be about, ‘What was the relationship with Meghan being there?’ We’ll get some of that with Harry, but it would be even bigger if Meghan had been there. So if you are being positive about Meghan, she’s done the right thing by not making herself the story.”“As much as Meghan appreciates the invite to the Coronation, she wouldn’t miss her son’s birthday for the world.
As for Harry, “I think he’ll be nervous about how the family [will] react to him, and I think it’s pretty clear that he’s going to minimize the amount of time that he’s in London,” Bullen said. “He’s already said that he wants to be back for Archie’s birthday that afternoon, that evening. It will be very much of a fly-in visit. Harry isn’t part of the procession or the balcony appearance.”, the Sussexes are “struggling” with what to do next.
