The kids weren’t invited and Charles knew full well it was Archie’s bday when selecting the event date. They designed it so she wouldn’t attend. It’s fine, he makes quick appearance then heads straight home. Little to no drama.

They so many family members, the coronation would inevitably fall on someone's bday. Besides, I doubt Archie knows when his birthday is and can wait to celebrate.

Wait, what? Of course he knows when his birthday is. He's almost 4. Do you even have children? Good grief, you are on the wrong website.

I don't know what to tell you. Maybe you have an unusually astute 4-year old. My youngest is almost five and he has no idea when his birthday is. He would gleefully celebrate it whenever he's told.

This is true, and so would any reasonable adult. My birthday fell on a Monday this year. We celebrated with family at dinner the following Saturday. Not traumatizing.

It's a State event, not a place for foreign toddlers to run around.

So not one single person in their entire organization would say "that's your grandson's birthday" while planning such a massive event. GTFOH

And don't say it's because 'why would she go if everyone hates her there?' That negative stimulus hasn't ever stopped Meghan and can be argued that she thrives on it.

Harry has said that the Queen's handlers prevented him from seeing her and talking to her on the phone. He had to fly on a public airline to get there when she died because the Family wouldn't send a royal plane for him. You really need to stop acting the Royal family has been so kind towards him and Harry is the only problem in the relationship.

I believe the issue with that was that Harry wanted Meghan to join him on the royal plane and the family absolutely wouldn't have her there.

If true, this alone would be reason enough for Harry and Meghan to never want to see them again. Imagine if your parents and siblings refused to give you a ride to see your beloved grandmother one last time because you wanted to bring your spouse and they didn't like them. It's petty and controlling AF.

So she could sell images, stories and recordings of the dying Monarch to the tabloid press? Get real! You can't be serious.

Why should they? Kate had been a member of the family much longer and wasn't invited either. Meghan barely knew QEII, didn't belong on that plane. And that's aside from the fact that she had already established she could not be trusted.

Harry is being dishonest if that's his line. The Queen was the Head of State. She orders handlers around, not the other way. Harry simply couldn't distinguish between his beloved granny who loved her grandchild, and Queen Elizabeth the Monarch, who was devoted to the preservation of the monarchy at all costs. When the Queen decided Harry was being destructive to the monarchy, she made herself scarce. Do you really think the monarch needs permission to see someone she wants to see, or to speak on the phone to someone she wants to speak to?

You can see this clearly in his writings, even though he isn't self aware enough to recognize it. First the granny is this powerful intelligent figure who takes important decisions every day. But when it comes to Harry, she instantly becomes a quiet shriveled figure who doesn't say anything and appears to be shrinking into the corner while Charles and Williams run roughshod over him. Harry doesn't recognize that the Queen makes decisions and lets other people implement it. He simply couldn't fathom that granny wouldn't give him what he wants.

Yes absolutely. The same monarchy that shielded Charles during his lurid affair while married to Dianna and all the glowing press published about Camila once he married her. The same monoarchy that is silent about the pediphile prince Andrew. Yes, at her age the Queen was absolutely handled.

I think there will be a reconciliation when Harry and Meghan divorce. It's coming. No one could tolerate being married to her for very long. She is estranged from nearly every member of her family save her mother.

She was an only child. Her father is trash. I would question if she WEREN'T estranged from those wack jobs.

He’s trash because he stupidly posed for a magazine? She loved him just fine before that. What about her maid of honor (gone), all aunts and uncles and cousins? She basically has her mother and that’s it. She’s clearly the problem.

He took money to spill the tea about her. He took money to publicize a personal letter she'd written him. What kind of a parent does that? Trash.

SHE publicized it through her friends. What kind of child does that?

Also, didn't Kate tell some royal biographer recently that doing their "walk abouts" with Harry and Meghan before the funeral was "one of the hardest things she's ever had to do"? Like merely being in the near vicinity of Meghan was apparently too much to bear. In that case, not going to the coronation seems polite.

Kate recently attended church services with noted pedophile Prince Andrew, but apparently that was not nearly so trying as standing near a black woman who used to be on the television show Suits.

These people are THE WORST.

Huh, I thought Kate meant it was difficult to face the crowds on such a devastating occasion, not making it all about Meghan.

That isn't how it was reported in the British press, and we know the British press works with the BRF on the angles they take on many of these stories.

Here is the excerpt:

"Catherine later admitted to a senior royal that, such was the ill feeling between the two couples, the joint walkabout was one of the hardest things she's ever had to do," Jobson, the Evening Standard's royal editor, writes in his book.

Also, Kate "faces crowds" all the time, it's a central part of her job, and while it was sad when the queen died, she was 96 and Kate's job was simply to put on a public face (with the help of a team of professionals) in order to show the British family acting in solidarity. If this is really one of the hardest things she's ever had to do, then perhaps the term "working royal" is a bit generous for her job title. I once had to work alongside someone who spread nasty rumors about me to my colleagues and friends, for over two years, making far less than whatever Kate's clothing budget is. I'm sorry, but doing a public event with your SIL who you don't like very much isn't really that big of a deal.

But yes, Meghan is the "drama queen"

I truly don't get this way of thinking. A grandchild's birthday is a relatively small occasion. It is dwarfed by a coronation. I dunno, I can't imagine our family postponing any kind of event in deference to one of the children's birthdays. Of course we always celebrate kids' birthdays. But we don't ever care if the celebration is on the actual day or not.

The RF probably requested that Meghan be screened for wires and mics and she refused... a six hour Netflix documentary bashing your inlaws and making you seem like a saint definitely needs a sequel and she needs material/ drama!

I think they have to balance many, many considerations, and Archie's bday just isn't high up on the list of them.

Wow this thread exploded fast. There is something so universally detestable about Meghan Markle, isn't there?

Of course they did not want someone who showed she was willing to sell any private tidbit to the highest bidder. Good lord, this was about a beloved matriarch and queen's death. The family did not need to worry about the details of their grief broadcast to millions in the next Oprah interview. I'm sure they didn't want H there either, for the same reason. The fact that she felt she was *entitled* to be there is mind-boggling in and of itself.

It's not quite universal, but it's getting there. Will never be 100% IMO, b/c some, as exemplified in this thread, are in wayyyyy too deep and would rather go down with the MM ship.
