The couple has reportedly been invited to the coronation, which will be attended by almost all members of the royal family and dignitaries from all over the world, as well as a host of famous faces. Although the deadline for RSVPs has already passed, it is still unclear whether the Sussexes will travel to the UK for the event.
According to a source close to the couple, "Harry is waiting for a positive response to his requests to the Palace before taking any decision as he and his wife Meghan Markle have many questions about how the event will work." The couple has reportedly had lengthy discussions with the Firm in this regard. However, previous reports suggest that the couple were being ‘factored into the planning’ of the ceremony.
The celebrations will continue across the weekend, with an extra bank holiday on May 8, and a special Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle, which will air on the BBC on Sunday, May 7. It is hoped that Archie and Lilibet and their parents will attend the event, which is such a historical occasion.
Harry's relationship with his royal relatives has remained troubled after the publication of his autobiography Spare in January of this year. The bookies have even got in on the act, with Coral cutting its odds to 1-3 that Harry and Meghan will attend the event as of the end of March, dropping from 4-5 earlier in the month.
