On Wednesday Tom Bower said on GB News, 'We must all be grateful that Kate, in the end I think, prevented Meghan from coming and said she 'wouldn't have her there under any circumstances'. As per the former BBC journalist, Kate Middleton also warned Meghan Markle that if she attended the coronation ceremony then the actress will be seated all the way back. Bower explained that Prince Harry's decision to attend came after lengthy negotiations as an 'ugly compromise' since his presence is constitutionally important.

The former BBC journalist also said that if anything happened to Prince Williams and all three of his children, then Prince Harry will be next in line for the throne. As per the Page Six sources, Meghan Markle also felt inauthentic to attend the coronation ceremony since her relationship with the royal family remains icy. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex wanted to make a decision that was authentic and genuine, especially after how everything has gone down.

Bower also said that it is highly likely that Prince Harry will not appear on the balcony of Buckingham Palace with the working members of the royal family after the coronation ceremony.
