**Meghan Markle’s Request for Royal Title for Mother Doria Snubbed Ahead of King Charles’s Coronation**
Meghan Markle's plea for her mother, Doria Ragland, to be granted a royal title at King Charles's upcoming coronation has been flatly rejected.
According to a report by Daily Express UK, despite Meghan's insistence, there will be no Countess or Lady title bestowed upon Doria during the ceremony.
Speculation is rife that Doria may accompany Meghan and Prince Harry to the UK for the coronation, with the primary purpose of looking after her grandchildren.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have received an invitation to attend the event scheduled for May 6th.
However, it is believed that Archie and Lilibet, their young children, may require supervision during the service at Westminster Abbey.
In a surprising turn of events, Meghan had requested the palace to arrange an intimate birthday celebration for Archie, to which she invited Doria.
Alongside this request, Meghan had also implored King Charles to bestow a royal title upon Doria, arguing that she deserved recognition for her role in caring for the children.
However, these requests were met with a firm refusal.
The royal family made it clear that the coronation is not a family affair, and there is no obligation to include Doria or any other family members.
Furthermore, it was emphasized that no external guests would be invited to Archie's birthday party, as the hosts are solely Prince Harry and Meghan.
Despite the rejection of Meghan's pleas, reports suggest that she remains determined to secure a title for her mother.
It is rumored that Meghan is exploring alternative avenues to acquire a title for Doria, including purchasing one through auctions held by the Memorial Society in the UK.
Adding to the intrigue, leaked information indicates that Prince Harry and Meghan, who now reside in the US, are prohibited from participating in the royal procession at the coronation.
Sources claim that while King Charles desires their presence, they will not be treated as senior royals due to their decision to step back from their official roles three years ago.
Notably, Prince Andrew, who has been embroiled in controversy surrounding his association with Jeffrey Epstein, has also been excluded from the coronation proceedings.
The snub extends to others, including Prince Andrew's daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie, highlighting the complexities within the royal family dynamics.
