In a recent development, Nigel Farage has urged that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle be prohibited from appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony during King Charles III’s coronation, citing their status as non-working royals.
While acknowledging the difficulty Charles may face in snubbing his youngest son, the former UKIP leader emphasized the importance of respecting the historic moment.
Farage expressed his view on Fox Business Network, stating that the balcony is reserved for working royals, referencing the iconic picture of the late Queen alongside Winston Churchill on VE Day.
He highlighted that the Queen was a working member of the royal family, unlike Harry and Meghan who chose to pursue a new life on the West Coast of America.
While they are welcome to attend the coronation at the Abbey, Farage made it clear that they should not be allowed on the balcony.
The discussion surrounding Harry and Meghan intensified following the release of Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” in January.
The book, which quickly became the world’s fastest-selling non-fiction book, contained several astonishing revelations.
Among them were accounts of a physical altercation between Harry and his older brother Prince William, as well as Queen Camilla’s apparent snub towards the younger sibling.
Nigel Farage also addressed claims made by royal author Tom Bowe, suggesting that Charles was paralyzed with fear over the decision to invite Harry.
Farage regarded Bowe as the country’s leading biographer and a skilled psychologist, agreeing that Charles faced a dilemma.
On one hand, he could not invite his own son to the coronation, as it would contradict his paternal instincts.
On the other hand, if Harry and Meghan were invited, there was concern that they might attempt to disrupt the event, potentially tarnishing the global spectacle witnessed by billions.
It seems that Charles is caught in a lose-lose situation, unable to satisfy everyone.
Farage expressed hope that Harry and Meghan would behave appropriately during the coronation.
Buckingham Palace has yet to disclose the exact lineup for the balcony appearance alongside King Charles.
However, it is widely expected that his wife, Queen Camilla, and his son and heir, Prince William, will be present.
The coronation itself is a significant religious ceremony that marks the crowning of the sovereign monarch and includes the iconic moment when the crown is placed upon their head.
