The Sussexes’ Dilemma: Will Archie and Lillibet Miss the King’s Coronation?
Speculations are rife as reports suggest that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, are set to attend the upcoming King's Coronation in May.
However, it seems unlikely that their young children, Prince Archie and Princess Lillibet, will be joining them at the prestigious event.
The ceremony, scheduled to take place at Westminster Abbey, is a grand affair within the royal family, raising questions about childcare arrangements for the royal couple.
While there is no official decree barring the attendance of young royal children, tradition dictates that very young members of the royal family are usually not present at such formal events.
This echoes the absence of Prince Louise at Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding back in 2018, shortly after the birth of the young royal.
With the coronation falling on Archie's 4th birthday, should Harry and Meghan choose to participate, they may opt to allocate part of the day to celebrate with their son.
In light of this potential conflict, Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland, residing near the family in Montecito, California, may accompany them to provide assistance in caring for the grandchildren.
Known for her hands-on approach and affection for Archie and Lillibet, Doria has reportedly been a pillar of support for the family, offering childcare when needed.
The couple also has a dedicated nanny for their children in the U.S., along with Loero Camulo, a pediatric nursing consultant who has been entrusted with Archie's care since his birth.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding Archie and Lillibet's attendance at the coronation, it is anticipated that their cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louise, will be present at the event.
Speculation abounds regarding the potential role of future King George in the ceremony, though it is unlikely that Harry and Meghan will have any official duties during the proceedings.
Furthermore, their appearance on the Buckingham Palace Balcony alongside other royal family members is not expected on the day of the coronation.
As discussions swirl around the logistics of childcare for Archie and Princess Lillibet, the focus remains on how the Sussexes will navigate this significant event while ensuring the well-being of their children.
The complexities of balancing royal duties with familial responsibilities underscore the challenges faced by the couple as they navigate their roles within the monarchy.
The upcoming King's Coronation promises to be a momentous occasion, with the absence of the youngest royals adding a layer of intrigue to the proceedings.
Amidst these deliberations, the question remains: Will Archie and Princess Lillibet miss out on the King's coronation, and who will step in to care for them if their parents choose to attend the ceremony?
