According to recent reports, King Charles III has enlisted the help of Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Melby to help him reach an agreement with his son Prince Harry to attend his coronation in May, but he is concerned that his eldest son, Prince William, will oppose his plans.
The Prince of Wales is said to be upset with his younger brother over “attacks” against the Royal Family poured out in the pages of his memoir ‘Spare‘. King Charles’ eldest son fears Harry will take the opportunity to overshadow his father’s coronation on Saturday, May 6th.

The king believes Harry and his wife Meghan Markle‘s absence at the coronation, would be a greater distraction than their presence, so he is ready to agree concessions, a high-profile seat within the event and a guarantee that the couple will be able to retain their titles, despite relinquishing their royal duties in 2020.
“The underlying question is whether they attend the coronation and, if they do, on what terms and conditions. The family is divided and all indications are that Harry is being advised not to agree to anything at this stage and – ‘string them along’ – until the last minute, making negotiations with him very difficult. Harry’s team made it clear that the idea that he would just attend the coronation and behave himself, but then be stripped of his titles was a total non-starter“, said a source.
