**Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Set to be Sidelined at Queen’s Funeral**

and his wife, , are anticipated to be sidelined during the upcoming funeral of the Queen next week in London.

The entire royal family is expected to gather for the monarch's funeral on Monday, with most members taking prominent positions.

However, speculations suggest that Harry and Meghan might not be given front-row seats.

Notably, Daniela Elsa, a vocal critic of the couple, hinted that they could be seated towards the back, reminiscent of their positioning during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee events in June.

While specific details regarding the funeral arrangements remain undisclosed, the potential seating arrangement poses a poignant moment for Harry, extending beyond the obvious reasons.

Elsa remarked on the growing gap between Harry and his brother, , which has been accentuated by recent revelations concerning Walkabout and William.

The palace's emphasis on hierarchy within the royal family does not augur well for the Sussexes in the context of the Queen's funeral.

Recent reports indicate that only working members of the royal family will be permitted to don military attire at the funeral, leaving Harry and to wear mourning suits.

In adherence to protocol, Charles, his siblings, William, the Duke of Gloucester, and the Duke of Kent will display their regimental finery, contrasting starkly with Harry and his uncle's somber black attire.

This situation is undoubtedly challenging for Harry, who served proudly in the army for a decade.

As the official funeral approaches, the Sussexes will have been separated from their young children for over two weeks, a significant period without compelling reasons.

Despite their extended stay in the UK, ostensibly to honor the Queen and her family, they have refrained from engaging with them for the past two years.

The absence of any imminent engagements underscores the flexibility for them to return briefly before the funeral, highlighting the emotional strain of their prolonged separation from their children.

Meanwhile, Jeremy Clarkson recently took a jab at in his latest column while paying tribute to the late Queen.

In his reflections on the Queen's steadfast reign of 70 years, Clarkson lauded her consistent persona, untouched by fleeting trends.

He contrasted her timeless elegance with Meghan's approach to fashion, implying that the Queen's authenticity surpassed superficial concerns.

Clarkson humorously remarked on the Queen's unchanging hairstyle, attributing her sartorial choices to practicality rather than fashion magazines.
