Princess Anne Sets Conditions for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Attendance at Coronation
With just a month to go before the highly anticipated coronation at Westminster Abbey in London, tensions arise as conditions are set for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s attendance.
According to a royal insider who spoke with Page Six, after Prince Harry’s conditions were met for Buckingham Palace to accept his invitation, King Charles III has now imposed his own set of demands.
Princess Anne, in her role as the Duke of Sussex’s sister, has sent a final ultimatum to the couple, ensuring that her brother’s coronation goes as smoothly as possible.
The ultimatum includes the requirement for the Duke and Duchess to sign a contract that establishes various parameters to be met.
One of the stipulations is that the couple must not disclose any details related to the event and are strictly forbidden from speaking to the press upon entering Westminster Abbey.

Furthermore, they are expected to maintain a behavior befitting the stature of the British monarchy and avoid any actions that may tarnish their reputation while in London.
Despite attending the coronation, the Duke and Duchess will not have a balcony moment.
Instead, King Charles and Queen Consort will celebrate their coronation by appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony alongside the working royals.
This decision by His Majesty signifies his vision of a streamlined monarchy, according to sources close to the royal family.
The grand finale event on Saturday, May 6, will also feature a spectacular fly-past over the royal family’s headquarters.
Detailed plans obtained by the Mirror reveal that the King intends to express gratitude to the nation while showcasing the heartbeat and future of his family alongside a select few royals who have dedicated their lives to public service.
Prince Charles and Camilla will travel from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace in the Gold State coach, accompanied by the chosen group.
The Prince and Princess of Wales, along with their three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—will also make an appearance.
Notably absent from the final group of fifteen is Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, should they choose to attend the coronation.
Despite rumors suggesting that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have made demands to be included on the balcony, palace insiders dismiss these claims as false.
Disgraced Prince Andrew, who stepped back from royal life following allegations of s**ual abuse, will also be excluded from standing alongside the monarch during this significant moment.
Princess Anne, Charles’s trusted confidante and beloved sister, will be by the King’s side, accompanied by her husband Vice-Admiral Sir Tim Lawrence.
Additionally, Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, who shared a close bond with the late Queen, will also be present.
A source familiar with the plans stated, “The King has been very clear about who he wants to represent the monarchy.
This is a state occasion, not a family occasion, so only the working members of the family will be present at this significant public moment.”
The King has also insisted on including some of his mother’s most loyal servants and family members, despite their days as working royals being numbered.
The grand balcony moment will serve as the King’s final presentation of a streamlined monarchy, which will further reduce in size once other members, such as the Gloucesters, Duke of Kent, and Princess Alexandra, step away from public life.
This gesture is a final thank you to them for their unwavering support to the Queen during her 70-year reign.
On the other hand, the ultimate decision regarding their attendance still lies in Prince Harry’s hands.
A highly placed source admitted, “All families are difficult, but this is no normal family, of course.
Harry has many questions about how the event will unfold.”
Discussions are ongoing regarding whether the Princess of Wales will wear a tiara to the coronation, with speculation that she may choose to wear Princess Diana’s favorite headpiece, the Love is Not Tiara.
However, it is unlikely that Meghan Markle will have access to any family jewels, aside from those already gifted to her by Prince Harry.
In conclusion, Princess Anne has laid out conditions for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s attendance at the coronation, ensuring that the event proceeds smoothly.
The absence of a balcony moment for the Duke and Duchess signifies King Charles’s vision of a streamlined monarchy.
With preparations underway, the nation eagerly awaits this historic occasion at Westminster Abbey.
