How Prince Harry Is Involved in King Charles III's Coronation Ceremony
Prince Harry was in attendance at King Charles III's historic coronation, but his role was not what many once expected for his father's big day.Harry was spotted entering the ceremony at Westminster Abbey on Saturday morning with his cousins, Princess Beatrice, Princes Eugenie, and Zara Tindall, as well as their respective spouses. He seemed in good spirits, smiling and chatting with Beatrice's husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, and sat with his family — next to Eugenie's husband, Jack Brooksbank, and directly behind his aunt, Anne, Princess Royal.ET spoke with royal expert Eloise Parker ahead of the May 6 ceremony, who shared some insights on what would likely go down between Harry and Charles during the coronation and it wasn't too far off from what viewers saw Saturday.«I fully expect Prince Harry to be very much on the sidelines during this ceremony,» Parker shared. «This ceremony is all about King Charles III and the Queen Consort, so I would expect even the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Kate, will also be at the sidelines for this [event].»It was recently revealed that Harry would be attending the coronation alone -- while his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children — Archie, who turns 4 on Saturday, and Lilibet, 1 — will remain at home in California. "[There was] some surprise that Harry is going alone, [but] not so much when you realize that it's his son, Archie's, birthday the very same day," Parker explained.
