The whole world has had its eye on the coronation of King Charles since its announcement. Everyone is not only looking forward to this ceremony but also to the guests attending it. Everybody wanted to know whether Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would attend the ceremony. However, they made it clear some time ago that only the Duke of Sussex would attend while Markle stayed home with the kids. However, Markle and her kids are not the only royals not attending the ceremony.

Another Royal who won’t be present at the coronation is the third child of Prince William and Kate Middleton, Prince Louis. The young royal turned five last week and is said to be too young for such an important event. Hence, according to the Telegraph, he will not join his parents and siblings to watch his grandad getting crowned.

Meanwhile, his older brother Prince George will have a significant role as a page of honor during the ceremony. In the meantime, Princess Charlotte is said to have a look at the proceedings from the congregation. Alike Princess Charlotte, her great-grandmother late Queen Elizabeth also watched her father’s coronation from the congregation.

There is also a major update on Prince George’s role. Apparently, he, along with three other boys, will carry the robe of King Charles. Notably, the king sat near his grandmother during Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation.

When Buckingham Palace first announced the presence of Prince Harry, it made clear that Markle won’t be attending the ceremony. Prince Archie’s birthday falls on the same day as the coronation and that was concluded as the reason she is staying in the States with the kids. While others see it as a personal reason, as her close friend told People, “the scrutiny she receives outweighs the support.”
