Prince Harry will be left ‘in a predicament’ if he and his wife Meghan Markle receive an invite to King Charles III ’s coronation.
The new monarch’s coronation is set to be held at Westminster Abbey on May 6, 2023.
There has been much speculation about whether or not the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will receive an invite to the event.

Yesterday, The Telegraph reported that Harry is weighing up a “million different variables” to decide whether he and Meghan should fly to the United Kingdom in May.
The prince is allegedly concerned about how the British public will react to them attending the coronation.
However, the decision to skip the monumental event could be seen as a ‘snub’.

A friend of the Duke told the publication that Harry is mindful that the coronation will be “pretty much the most important day” in his father Charles’s life.
Additionally, he would like to be by his father’s side as he is crowned Britain’s new king and would like to repair his relationship with other royals.
Earlier this week, a source close to the Royal Family told The Daily Mail the Sussexes “will definitely” be at Charles’ big day, but should not expect any reconciliation talks.
In an interview with ITV’s Tom Bradby to promote his memoir, Harry refused to commit to attending Charles’s coronation.

He said: “There’s a lot that can happen between now and then. But, the door is always open. The ball is in their court.
“There’s a lot to be discussed and I really hope that they’re willing to sit down and talk about it.”
The royal family have not publicly commented on either the Netflix documentary or Harry’s memoir.
Preparations for the coronation have begun, as it was recently reported Andrew Lloyd Webber has been commissioned to compose a new anthem for the occasion.
