Meghan Markle Considers Skipping King Charles’s Coronation
Reports have surfaced indicating that Meghan Markle is feeling left out of the plans for King Charles's coronation, leading to speculation that she and Prince Harry might opt out of attending.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are reportedly deliberating whether to make the trip for the event scheduled on May 6.
Close associates of the couple revealed that they find themselves in a state of uncertainty, grappling with numerous factors that could influence their decision.
Royal expert Richard Fitz Williams recently hinted that the Sussexes may choose to stay put due to concerns over security and a significant decline in public favor following the announcement of Harry's upcoming memoir.
Despite the challenges, insiders claim that Harry is keen on standing by his father's side on this momentous occasion and hopes to mend the strained relationship with the royal family.
However, the decision is fraught with complexities as they risk facing backlash and accusations of snubbing the family if they opt not to attend.
Sources close to the Duke mentioned that the couple will only finalize their decision upon receiving a formal invitation at their residence in California.
They will then deliberate on whether to grace the historic event together or if Harry, aged 38, will make a solo appearance.
There is also a possibility that neither of them will show up, hinting at the uncertainty surrounding their participation.
The anticipated visit to the UK, if it materializes, is expected to be brief.
A friend of the couple described their impending choice as lacking foresight, emphasizing that they will address the situation when the time comes.
Meanwhile, supporters of Meghan expressed her distress over the portrayal of her and Harry in a recent South Park episode titled the “Global Privacy Tour.”
The satirical depiction mocked the couple's challenges, with Meghan being derogatorily labeled as a sorority girl, actress, influencer, and victim by a character.
Despite feeling upset and overwhelmed by the episode, Meghan has refrained from watching it entirely, as per a source in California.
Notably, royal analysts have suggested that Harry and Meghan's legal team is monitoring the situation closely, hinting at potential legal implications arising from the broadcast.
The creators of South Park have yet to receive any legal communication regarding the episode that featured a caricature of the Prince and Princess of Canada, resembling the Sussexes.
In the episode, the fictionalized royal couple is depicted seeking privacy while drawing attention to themselves, with references to Harry's book and Meghan's public appearances.
The satire takes aim at the couple's perceived contradictions, portraying them in a less than flattering light.
As the scrutiny continues, insiders close to the former royals suggest that the legal team is evaluating the situation to assess any potential ramifications.
The satirical portrayal of the Prince and Princess of Canada in the program has sparked controversy, with scenes depicting their interactions with the royal family and public responses to their actions.
The episode unfolds with a series of jabs directed at the couple, highlighting the tensions between seeking privacy and maintaining public attention.
Amidst the ongoing scrutiny, the Sussexes' legal team remains vigilant in safeguarding their interests and reputation in the face of media portrayals.
