Britain's Prince Harry and his wife Meghan have received an invitation to his father King Charles' coronation, but will not yet confirm publicly whether they will attend, a spokesperson for Harry said on Sunday.
This comes a week after a spokesperson for the couple confirmed the Sussexes were asked to vacate Frogmore Cottage, the house within the grounds of King Charles' Windsor Castle estate they use when in Britain.
Preparations for the event in May have been overshadowed by the couple's damning revelations about the king, Harry's elder brother Prince William and other royals in his recent memoir, a Netflix documentary and a series of TV interviews.
His recent high-profile and stinging criticism of his family had led to speculation over whether Harry, who stepped down from royal duties in 2020, would be invited to the coronation and, if he was, whether he would attend.
