Prince Harry decided he would attend King's Coronation in March - but had demands over Archie and Lilibet
dailyrecord.co.ukPrince Harry reportedly made the decision to attend the King's Coronation a month ago but delayed confirming it publically as he had demands for his children.
A former equerry, who is close to both Prince Harry and William, said he was aware of the Duke of Sussex's plans at the beginning of March, reports the Mirror.It has been claimed that the main reason Harry delayed confirming his attendance is that he wanted some recognition by the Royal Family for his children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.On May 6 - which is when the historic event will be held - Archie will turn four.
And according to reports, King Charles III was happy to make a nod to his grandson and raise a glass to him during a post-Coronation lunch.However, it is unclear whether Harry will attend the lunch, with rumours that he will return to California after the ceremony at Westminster Abbey.
