King Charles attends Sandringham church service amid reports he WANTS Prince Harry at Coronation 

The King was pictured today attending a Sunday morning service in Norfolk as it was revealed that he wants Prince Harry to attend his coronation in May.

Her Majesty was accompanied by her sister, the Princess Royal, as the couple made their way to St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham.

Wearing a brown coat, the King was photographed holding an umbrella as he made his way to the service. Meanwhile, his sister, Princess Anne, rocked a coordinating outfit, also featuring a brown coat, which she paired with brown pants and boots.

The outing follows revelations published by the Mail On Sunday that the monarch has asked the Archbishop of Canterbury to broker a deal to allow Harry to attend his coronation, but was met with resistance from William.

Charles wants Justin Welby to strike a deal with his warring children that would allow Harry and his wife Meghan to attend the Westminster Abbey ceremony in May, senior sources close to Lambeth Palace say.

Speculation has abounded as to whether the Sussexes would attend the high-profile event since stepping away from royal duties, and especially since the publication of Harry’s tell-all memoir Spare earlier this month, which contained a series of hurtful attacks. against senior. members of the Royal Family.

It comes amid reports that Charles is thinking of doing his own TV interview before the Coronation.

The King is said to believe Harry and Meghan’s absence from the coronation would be more of a distraction than their presence, so he is willing to make concessions to persuade them to attend.

Good cheer: At one point, King Charles appeared to be grinning broadly as he walked alongside his sister in Sandringham today.

The King’s departure today, accompanied by his sister Princess Anne, follows reports that the monarch wants his son, Prince Harry, to attend his coronation.

The King is said to believe Harry and Meghan’s absence from the coronation would be more of a distraction than their presence.

But it is understood that William is worried that his brother will use the event to stage a “stunt” that will upstage the event.

Sources say Harry could be guaranteed a high-profile seat at the Abbey or an informal guarantee that he will be able to keep his titles as an incentive to attend.

However, William fears that unless Harry’s visit is strictly scripted, he could steal the spotlight, for example by taking a walk through a deprived London neighborhood with Meghan.

One source said: ‘The bottom line is whether they will attend the Coronation and, if they do, under what terms and conditions.

While the King is said to want Harry to attend the Coronation, reports say Prince William is apprehensive about the idea.

“The family is divided, and all indications are that Harry is being advised not to agree to anything at this stage and to ‘do the rest’ until the last minute, making negotiations with him very difficult.”

“Harry’s camp made it clear that the idea that he would just attend the coronation and behave well, but then be stripped of his titles, was a complete failure.

“While he might decide at some point to discard his titles of his own free will, he is opposed to the idea of ​​being forcibly stripped of them.

“He resents being lumped together with Andrew in the public mind as the two ‘trouble princes,’ when he considers the circumstances to be totally different.”

Last night both Lambeth Palace and Buckingham Palace refused to comment, while a source close to Prince William said they were unaware of any such Coronation negotiations.

The King has asked the Archbishop of Canterbury to negotiate a deal to allow Harry to attend his Coronation.

Charles wants Justin Welby to strike a deal with his warring children that would allow Harry and his wife Meghan to attend the Westminster Abbey ceremony in May, senior sources close to Lambeth Palace say.

Welby, who will officiate at the ceremony at Westminster Abbey, was first asked to act as go-between for William and Harry shortly after the Queen’s death in September.

He was previously drawn into the soap opera surrounding the Sussexes when Meghan claimed in a TV interview that she had secretly married them before their official wedding in 2018, forcing him to clarify that the ceremony broadcast to the world was the legal marriage.

He was also forced to withdraw from the Church’s General Synod in July 2019 to baptize the couple’s son, Archie.

Speculation about Harry and Meghan’s coronation attendance comes after the release of the couple’s Netflix docuseries and the Duke of Sussex’s tell-all memoir Spare.

Despite the King’s dignified silence on the allegations aired in Spare, Royal members say he was “furious” at his son’s attacks on Queen Consort Camilla, calling her “dangerous” and a “villain” in television interviews to promote his book.
