After his coronation on 6 May, when Harry was already flying to the United States to celebrate his eldest son’s fourth birthday, Charles III invited all of his family to be present to be with him for this special day. thanked the members. He also toasted his three grandchildren, George, Charlotte and Louis, as well as “those who weren’t there”, before sending birthday wishes to Archie “wherever he is”. It is certainly very sad that the new sovereign has been estranged from her youngest son’s two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Archie, born at Portland Hospital in London on May 6, 2019, spent the first six months of his life in the UK.

Six months later, Harry and Meghan publicly announced they would be relinquishing their official duties and functions on behalf of the British Crown amid the COVID-19 pandemic, before settling in Vancouver and then California.

However, his absence at the coronation had saddened the sovereign. A source close to the palace told the newspaper Sun The king was “disappointed” that his daughter-in-law, the Duchess of Sussex, and grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were not attending his and Camilla’s coronation. “It is sad, he is very disappointed not to see Meghan or her grandchildren, but he understands the situation.” Today it seems that Charles III is eager to undo this misstep and quell the outrage.
