The King has asked the Archbishop of Canterbury to broker a deal to allow Harry to attend his Coronation – but has met resistance from William, The Mail on Sunday can reveal
Speculation has been rife about whether the Sussexes would attend the high-profile event since they stepped away from Royal duties – and especially since the publication of Harry’s tell-all memoirs, Spare, earlier this month, that contained a string of wounding attacks on senior members of the Royal Family.
It comes amid reports that Charles is mulling over doing his own TV interview ahead of the Coronation.
The King is said to believe that Harry and Meghan’s absence at the coronation would be a greater distraction than their presence, so is prepared to make concessions to persuade them to attend.
But William is understood to be concerned that his brother will use the event to stage a ‘stunt’ that would overshadow the event.
Sources say Harry could be guaranteed a high-profile seating position in the Abbey or an informal assurance that he will be able to keep his titles as an inducement to attend.
