Scotland’s First Minister Bans Sussexes from King Charles’ Scottish Coronation
In a surprising turn of events, Scotland’s First Minister has issued a ban on the participation of the Sussexes in King Charles’ upcoming coronation.
This decision comes after the British Royal Family seemingly ignored the Sussexes during the official coronation ceremony held in May.
With this ban in place, it appears that the Sussexes will not have a chance to be a part of the royal event in Scotland.
King Charles is set to be officially crowned as the Head of State in Scotland on July 5th, following his coronation as the British Monarch on May 6th.
According to a report by CNN, Scotland is planning its own celebrations to mark the accession of King Charles.

The publication states that King Charles and Queen Camilla will be joined by Prince William and Kate Middleton for these festivities.
The First Minister of Scotland released a statement expressing the country’s excitement to welcome the new King and Queen in July.
A series of events, including a People’s Procession, a Royal Procession, a National Service of Thanksgiving, and a Gun Salute, will take place in Edinburgh to commemorate the coronation.
However, the Daily Mail reports that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, will not be attending the Scottish coronation of King Charles.
Prince Harry had previously attended the official coronation of King Charles without his wife Meghan Markle and their children, Archie and Lilibet.
Just when you thought all the major royal moments for the year were over, Scotland is gearing up to celebrate the accession of King Charles III with its own festivities.
These ceremonial events are part of Holyrood Week, also known as Royal Week, which occurs annually and traditionally involves the monarch traveling to different regions of Scotland to celebrate Scottish culture, achievements, and community.
King Charles and Queen Camilla will be accompanied by Prince William and Kate, who hold the Scottish titles of the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay, during their visit to Scotland.
The country is preparing for a series of events in July to mark the coronation, including a People’s Procession, a Royal Procession, a National Service of Thanksgiving, and a Gun Salute, all taking place in Edinburgh.
The First Minister of Scotland, Yousaf, has mentioned that individuals representing various communities and organizations will participate in these events.
He also stated that there will be opportunities for the public to join in the festivities.
The Thanksgiving service will be held at St. Giles Cathedral, which may be familiar to some as a stop on the Queen’s final journey from Balmoral to London last year.
During this service, the Scottish crown jewels will be presented to King Charles.
These regalia pieces, including the crown, scepter, and sword, date back to the early 16th century and are considered the oldest crown jewels in Britain.
Made of gold, silver, and precious gems, they hold great historical significance.
The crown was first worn by James V at the coronation of Queen Mary of Guise in 1540, while the origin of the solid silver scepter remains somewhat mysterious.
Some speculate that it was a powerful gift from Innocent VIII to James IV in 1494.
These precious regalia items are currently housed at Edinburgh Castle, although they were temporarily moved for protection during Oliver Cromwell’s army occupation between 1651 and 1660.
After the restoration of the monarchy, new items had to be commissioned to replace those destroyed during that period.
Another notable artifact that will be present at the coronation is the Stone of Scone, also known as the Stone of Destiny.
Some royal enthusiasts may recall its appearance during the Westminster Abbey coronation in early May.
