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.

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

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

Yeah I think it was just a bonus that his seriously disliked mother would be annoyed by the timing.

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.

When has Meghan ever sold images, stories, or recordings of any member of the royal family for money? She has shared images of her own family for their own PR and business reasons (William and Kate also release photos of their family to the public and the press, and also carefully cultivate a public image vie public appearances and carefully orchestrated clothes and photo opportunities).

Meghan has never recorded members of the royal family and sold those recordings for money.

Meghan has never sold stories about the royal family for money. She has shares some of her OWN stories about her experiences in the British family, including things people did or said to her. She has mostly shared these things for free in public interviews, not for money.

Prince Harry has shared stories for money, via his book, but again, every story in that book is about HIS experience. Many members of the BRF have done interviews and written books about their time in the royal family, including Sarah Ferguson and Princess Anne. Why shouldn't Harry be allowed to do the same.

What you are actually saying is that these people are mad that they cannot treat Harry and Meghan poorly without being public exposed for it. They want to be able to say racist things about Meghan or their children, criticize them and berate them, but they want that to be kept private and out of the public eye, where no one will hold them accountable for that behavior.

Prince Andrew's big sin wasn't what he did with Epstein, you know. It was getting caught and being revealed. You can be any kind of craven, venal, racist parasite you want in the BRF, but you must do it privately and then put on your Sunday best and show up for church on time to keep up appearances.

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.

The point is that of all the days Charles could have picked to hold the event, he specifically choose Archie's birthday. It was not the only day it could be held. Out of respect for his Son he couldn't have chosen any other day?

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.

I agree! Meghan could not win either way.

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 don't think it was about disliking her, it was about knowing that this person has published a highly unflattering account of you and your husband in the global media. I'm sure it was unpleasant for you to work with someone you dislike but this walkabout was something else.

Btw you could see how stressed Meghan was there by how hard she was clutching Harry's hand. She was genuinely ill at ease there.

Because a mature person would move the child’s party to another day.

Are you really equating your feelings about when to celebrate your birthday to the feelings of a FOUR YEAR OLD?

I just don't think this is something that would rank high in their thinking. And truthfully, it shouldn't. Archie is one of five grandchildren and a distant one at that.

Also, you and I just don't know if he could pick ANY day for the coronation weekend. I'm sure they have to balance dozens of "blackout dates".

The son doesn’t seem to have much respect for his father.

Don’t worry, she will have something planned.

A four year-old doesn't know how to feel about this unless told so by adults in their life.

Most four-year olds don't know when their birthday is and would let the day pass in blissful ignorance - unless told so by their family.

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.

Okay. The dad’s trash, what about her maid of honor and every aunt, uncle and cousin?

A four year old, as PP stated, will celebrate on whatever day you tell him to. He's not going to care if the party doesn't happen on THE DAY. In fact it often does not occur on the day, and everyone survives. 4 year olds are unaware. They don't. care.

I think her haters are more detestable. It's like not being able to stop yourself from looking at a crash on the side of the road. The hatred and ugliness they display is hard to look away from. A real spectacle every time her name comes up.
