Should Harry and Meghan go to the Coronation? YOU voted

OK! readers have voted overwhelmingly for Harry and Meghan to stay AWAY from King Charles III'sCoronation later this year.

A hefty 1,012 of you were against the Duke and Duchess of Sussex showing their faces, with merely 122 saying they should grace the event on May 6.

It is widely believed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be invited to the ceremony, despite the claims levelled against the royal family in the prince's recent book Spare, and in the couple's Netflix series Harry and Meghan.

The pair have savagely hit out at the royals in the past few months, with Harry having accused his brother Prince William of physically attacking him, while also detailing how he had previously begged his father not to marry Queen Consort Camilla.

So far, the Sussexes appear to still be on the guest list, however one key detail that remains up in the air is whether or not the prince will actually accept his father’s invitation.

If the couple were on better terms with the King, Harry could potentially have taken on a bigger role in the ceremony, but according to one royal historian, Dr Tessa Dunlop, fans shouldn’t hold their breath for the pair to have much of a role if they do appear.

Speaking to the Mirror, she said: "Causing maximum angst is the vexed question of the Sussexes; will they attend the big day and if so in what capacity? Historical precedent doesn't bode well.

“After his own abdication and fall from grace Edward VIII attended neither the 1937 coronation of his brother George VI nor his niece Elizabeth's in 1953.”

She then concluded: ”However in our changed times with a father-King who wants both his sons by his side, expect to see Harry there but minus a coronet and robe.”
