There is always a first time. Even at 70. Camilla Parker Bowles is the 2.0 version of Pretty Woman, itself a modern and action-packed take on Cinderella. In short, Camilla is living the long-cherished and long-awaited fairy tale: King Charles III’s wife. is officially Queen and not Queen Consort. It’s written in black and white on the red and blue floral invitations to Charles’ coronation, scheduled for May 6 at Westminster Abbey in London.
The invitations were released a month after the ceremony, which will attract over 2,000 guests, including royalty and heads of state, to the UK. The ticket for the momentous event carries the RSVP formula (ask for confirmation please) and the deadline has been set for early April. Guess who didn’t answer? Harry of England and wife Meghan Markle. The Dukes of Sussex have confirmed their invitation but remain silent on whether they will fly to London from Montecito. A snub from the father monarch following his asking for a seal of approval to celebrate. According to In Touch magazine, the Duchess of Sussex actually pressured her husband to demand $11 million for the presence. Prince Harry would have been at a loss and would have replied: “It’s a lot if they want us”.
It’s not certain if the inquiry was launched, it could be a hypothesis based on Meghan’s annoyed amazement during the 2018 tour of Australia, representing the British Crown. At the time, the former actress fumed about the lack of pay (“it feels incredible to shake all those hands and not get paid for it”) and back in London she began planning, along with the doting Harry, a goodbye to real ones Duties (but not titles and privileges).
However, there is certain news: on the balcony of Buckingham Palace will be King Charles III, Queen Camilla and the G-15. Things? The number of working royals welcoming the crowd. Only 15, only those actively and constantly working for Her Majesty and the British subjects. All the lazy ones down there. Starting with Andrea, Duke of York, his daughters Beatrice and Eugenie and ça va sans dire the Sussex.
