Harry attending coronation alone.

Seems the best idea.

I would prefer he stayed at home but i suppose in this case 1 is better than 2.

I noted it has already been criticised on the BBC News app as indicative of the problems between him and his family.

On the contrary, it's his small son's birthday that day, so his wife is staying at home with the children. It seems perfectly reasonable to me. Not a "Harry fan" but don't see any point in creating unnecessary drama.

Ah! - a new opportunity to have a go at H & M.

Sounds like it will be a very quick visit.

Fly over, attend the ceremony, scowl, fly home again.

Done job!

Best possible outcome. Now let's move on.

Some say, online, he never went back after his court case appearance ……

Aah! So he's hiding at a friend's!

This is a diplomatic solution. He attends to avoid the bad publicity of uncaring son and lets M off what must now be an ordeal for her.

Ooh, the plot thickens!

All the family have apologised for their cruelty ?

I hoped he wouldn't.
Seriously, how is he going to get through the day watching Camilla in what he will consider to be his mother's place?

Better IMO if he'd stayed away but as he's coming, better to come alone.

I bet there’s a Netflix crew carefully filming every second and hidden microphones for his next bombshell- too good an opportunity to miss 🤬

Don't shout at me but I did wonder when the date of the Coronation was first announced whether it had been chosen because it is Archie's birthday, therefore giving H&M an excuse not to come.

Just what I was thinking! The people at the palace have been very crafty - and who can blame them? (Well, I'm sure some will!)

Of course he'll come on his own. Meagain knows that she'd likely face a hostile reception if she pitched up.

I think PH will face a somewhat hostile reception as well. And they'll all be afraid to chat with him in case he's got a hidden recording device. Quite brave of him to come at all when you think about it. Shame he doesn't have a supportive spouse to stand alongside him. I don't agree with what they've done but I do think it is such a shame his life has turned out like this.

Probably the best thing to do.

"The monarchy also denies us an independent, effective head of state. That means there is little check on the use of royal powers and no-one to arbitrate during political crises. It's like having a football match with no referee.
Charles and William have the power of royal consent which means any laws that affect their personal interests need their agreement. The impact of this is hundreds of laws that give them special privileges and exemptions.

The date of this apparently historic occasion has been chosen to coincide with a wee boy's birthday and they better watch out because Harry might be wearing a recording device.

Too many people watching too many spy movies, honestly.

It doesn't seem a good idea to have the Coronation on Archie's birthday.

I thought Charles was being officially crowned on the Monday or have I got that wrong.
They both could have come over late Saturday evening or on the Sunday.

Saturday is Coronation day and that's the day he and Camilla will be crowned. Monday is a Bank Holiday for various activities. I don't think they'll be going to the abbey twice?!
