The author claimed: “We should all be grateful that Kate did, in the end, I think, stop Meghan from coming, and said she ‘wouldn’t be there under any circumstances.’” [Markle] She came, she had to sit in the back.”

“I think Harry’s presence in the Royal Family is constitutionally important,” Power continued. “God forbid, the Cambridges are all dead, and we had King Harry on the throne after Charles, so he has to be there.”

Buckingham Palace confirmed on Tuesday that Prince Harry will travel to London alone for the coronation ceremony on May 6. Meanwhile, Markle will remain in California with the couple’s two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

“Like, I’m a hugger, and I’ve always been a hugger. I didn’t realize this was really upsetting to a lot of Brits,” Markle claimed, implying she received a frosty reception from the future king and queen.

Kate camp Clap back at Markle’s trash talk, however, with an anonymous friend who later told People magazine, “Kate is a great hugger. She’s warm and friendly and greets everyone with a big hug and kiss. It’s only natural for her to be like that.”

“It could have been uncomfortable for Kate,” said an anonymous royal observer. Daily Mail Wednesday, he said that all eyes will be on the couple’s sisters for making their private differences public.
