King Charles’ bold plan for Prince Louis: He might follow in his grandfather’s footsteps with royal shake-up
King Charles and Camilla will have most family members in attendance for their coronation on May 6.
The question remains as to whether Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will accept their invitation, but documents as to how the big day will unfold have now been leaked.
The king’s three grandchildren, including the soon-to-be five-year-old Prince Louis, will all have a role in the coronation procession, though if they’ll play any significant part has yet to be revealed.
Prince George, Charles’ eldest grandchild, will be king himself in the future, while his siblings, Princess Charlotte and her brother, Louis, will “only” be working royals.
While it’s said Kate and William are preparing Charlotte for a life wherein she might have to work, young Prince Louis’s future remains more unclear. Interestingly, though, it’s now being speculated that King Charles might have quite the plan for the young royal, and it includes one of the most honorable titles in the royal world.
King Charles’ coronation is less than two months away. It will take place on May 6 and is expected to be celebrated nationwide by the British public
The royals will travel in procession to Westminster Abbey, where a traditional service, including an anointment with holy oil, will be performed. It’s not only the adult royals set to be involved in the coronation but also the royal children.
Charles and Camilla, the Queen Consort, won’t be traveling alone to the Abbey – where countless royal marriages, services, coronations, and funerals have taken place over the years.
That specific part of the coronation is for senior members of the Royal Family only, meaning that even if they are in the UK for the occasion, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not be involved.
That same goes for other non-working royals, including Andrew, the Duke of York, and his children, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.
Besides the debate and many reports about Harry and Meghan’s “be or not to be” showing at the coronation, another hot topic has been the potential involvement of Prince William’s eldest son, Prince George.
Which royal will attend King Charles’ coronation
Reports have suggested that he might take on a more significant role at the coronation alongside Camilla’s grandchildren, who look set to perform one of the most honorable tasks of the whole day.
According to leaked documents in The Times, the Prince and Princess of Wales – Prince William and Kate Middleton – will participate in the procession alongside their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
Alongside them will be Princess Anne and her husband, Vice Admiral Sir. Tim Laurence, the new Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh (Prince Edward and his wife Sophie), the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester (Prince Richard and his wife Birgitte), as well as the Duke of Kent (Prince Edward) and his wife, Princess Alexander.
In total, there will be 15 senior royals included in the procession, including King Charles and Camilla.
One of the biggest questions leading up to the coronation has been about Harry and Meghan. The couple was handed an official invite to King Charles’ coronation some weeks ago, but they are still yet to accept or decline the invitation.
Regardless, it seems as though they shouldn’t expect any kind of positive treatment from some of their royal peers.
Speaking with the Daily Mail, a royal family friend said that Harry and Meghan would be given the “cold shoulder” by many relatives.
