'Camilla's classic wifey attitude - and why it makes her Charles' perfect partner,' by royal expert

Queen Elizabeth II would have wanted Prince Andrew and Prince Harry on the Buckingham Palace balcony following King Charles’ Coronation, a royal expert claimed. Former royal butler Grant Harrold said the late Queen would have been “sad” that her son and grandson did not appear during the iconic balcony moment because she was “all about family”.

Prince William and Prince Harry's relationship has become more strained in recent years. Even before Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, made the decision to step away from royal life and relocate to America in 2020, the brothers showed signs of a serious rift. Today, the sons of King Charles III and the late Princess Diana are more divided than ever — but it wasn't always like that.Harry and William both attended their father's coronation on Saturday, May 6, 2023, at Westminster Abbey in London, England, marking the first time they were together since their grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II's funeral last year. The brothers did not speak or have any interaction with one another.Harry attended the coronation solo -- while Meghan and their two children — Archie, who turned 4 on Saturday, and Lilibet, 1 — remained at home in California. After attending the ceremony, the Duke of Sussex made a quick exit to the airport, presumably on his way home to America.The youngest son of King Charles III was absent from the royal family balcony after the coronation and had no notable role during the ceremony. He also skipped Sunday's coronation concert, celebrating the newly crowned king and queen.Now, ET delves into what went wrong in the brothers' relationship and where they stand today.We didn't expect a royal reconciliation at King Charles III's coronation.

Prince William has paid a touching public tribute to his father the King at the coronation concert, saying: “Pa, we are all so proud of you.” Heir to throne William also made a sweet reference to his late grandmother Queen Elizabeth II after taking to the stage, adding: “I know she’s up there, fondly keeping an eye on us.” He told his newly crowned father Charles: “She would be a very proud mother.” The prince delivered his speech in front of a crowd of 20,000 revellers at the star-studded Windsor Castle gala where the royal family gathered en masse to watch singers such as Katy Perry and Lionel Richie. He praised the King’s decades of service, his campaigning on green issues, Prince’s Trust charity and celebration of diversity and support for people of all backgrounds, communities and faiths.

Coronation celebrations are continuing in Scotland the day after King Charles III was officially crowned. Following the historic event on Saturday, a ceremony and parade will be held in Glasgow today as scores of other community celebrations are held across the country.

King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla looked "anxious" at today's historic Coronation earlier today, Saturday, 6 May, says a royal expert.The ceremony began at 11am and lasted for two hours but Royal expert Jennie Bond exclusively told OK! she was “worried” about how the pair looked during the ceremony. She said: "I was surprised by the the weirdness of some of the rituals and I was not surprised, but a bit worried, about how anxious both the King and the Queen looked." Jennie also questioned if the royals even enjoyed themselves due to the complexity of the ceremony, and said she would have liked to see them be more “relaxed”.

Timeless lady! Princess Kate arrived at King Charles III’s coronation in a regal outfit fit for a royal.

Ant and Dec are among the guests at Westminster Abbey in London today to watch King Charles' Coronation.

King Charles’ coronation on Saturday with the presence of Prince Harry and Camilla, Queen Consort.The Duke of Sussex, 38, published his tell-all memoir “Spare” earlier this year, in which he made some eyebrow-raising comments about his stepmother, 75.Ahead of the crowning on May 6, royal expert Nick Bullen claimed that Camilla is hell-bent and “furious” about the statements Harry wrote in his book.“I know from various people who are close to her [that] she was pretty furious with what was being said about her,” the True Royalty TV co-founder told Fox News recently.“But she is not someone that is going to be phoning Harry or [his wife] Meghan [Markle] and shouting down on the phone at them,” he went on.In “Spare,” the Invictus Games founder alleged that Camilla leaked stories to the press about him and the rest of the royal family.He also penned that he “begged” Charles not to marry her, as he believed that she would turn into his “wicked stepmother.”“The book was full of bomb-like moments that were going off in the palaces around Britain,” said Bullen.“For the king and the Prince of Wales, the comments that Harry made about their wives, about Camilla and Kate, I think were the most hurtful for the royal family. You can fight with your brother, you can fight with your dad, but really should you be throwing brickbats at your sister-in-law and stepmother? And particularly when they’re not going to be able to respond? So, I think those were the ones that hurt the most.”Charles and Camilla infamously had a decades-long affair while he was married to the late Princess Diana.

Gearing up for the big day. Queen Consort Camilla will be officially crowned alongside her husband, King Charles III, in just a few days, and one royal expert thinks she could be feeling anxious before the event.

Avoiding even more drama. The royal family opted to not give Prince Harry a part in King Charles III’s coronation in order to not “complicate matters,” according to royal expert Gareth Russell.

Prince Harry and King Charles III have had some conversations, albeit some awkward ones, since the release of his explosive memoir,. But when it comes to Harry and Prince William, not so much.Royal correspondent Omid Scobie, author of the Harry and Meghan Markle biography, tells ET that this trip back to London will be the first time Harry comes face-to-face with his family since the release of his memoir, but it most certainly won't be the first time that he's spoken with some of them.«Harry's had several conversations with his father over the months since the release of the book, largely about the coronation itself and, of course, matters to do with Frogmore Cottage, which the couple will no longer have the keys for any week now,» Scobie says.Harry and Meghan were evicted from the cottage just a couple of months ago, with the king's disgraced brother, Prince Andrew, set to live there. Harry and Meghan have until early summer to vacate the property. As for Harry and William's relationship, Scobie says nothing's changed in the matter.

King Charles’ Coronation will bring us together at what has indisputably been a tough time for the country, with royal experts predicting it will provide just the tonic we need.The 6 May ceremony at Westminster Abbey kicks off a special three-day Bank Holiday extravaganza that will see Britons and members of the Commonwealth salute the crowning of our new King. And while the coronation itself will undoubtedly be a time to toast the monarch, the following day, 7 May, is when the nation will really let its collective hair down.The Coronation Big Lunch – organised by the Eden Project – will see neighbours and communities across the country throw street parties and share food together in what’s being described as “a nationwide act of celebration and friendship”.

With royal engagements taking place all across the globe, members of the royal family live a rather jetset lifestyle. From meet and greets in Scotland to state visits to Germany, King Charles III ’s role as monarch has taken him to various countries in recent months where he has met people from all different walks of life.

For all the excitement and anticipation surrounding his coronation, King Charles will no doubt find the landmark day a bittersweet experience. While on the one hand he’s likely to feel immense pride when he’s finally crowned King, experts believe there will inevitably be a part of him that is tinged with sadness as he remembers the monarch who preceded him – his beloved mother, Queen Elizabeth II.

Sibling rivalry. Prince Harry and Prince William are still not on speaking terms amid their ongoing feud, according to royal expert Nick Bullen.

Katy Perry is gearing up to perform at King Charles III's coronation concert on Sunday, May 7. During an interview with Access Hollywood, the "American Idol" judge said she is "so grateful" for the opportunity.

For the best? Meghan Markle will not travel to the U.K. with Prince Harry for King Charles III’s coronation — and royal expert Nick Bullen believes the Duchess of Sussex made the right decision.
