Prince Harry still has no idea where he'll be seated for King Charles …
Prince Harry still has no clue where he will sit when he joins his relatives for King Charles' coronation, sources told Page Six. So far, officials have not told the renegade royal how far down he will be in the pecking order at Westminster Abbey on May 6, despite being the king's youngest son. Princess Diana's former butler Paul Burrell -- who was accused by Harry and his brother, Prince William, of "betraying" the late princess for publishing her private letters -- this week mooted that Harry may be stuck in a 10th-row seat at the ceremony.
One source sniffed: "Harry has not been told where he's sitting yet, but I highly doubt that [it's as far back as the 10th row]. "Harry's going to show up to support his dad. All I know is that it's a stretch to ask much more for him ... he doesn't have any sort of agenda other than just getting in and getting out."

Harry, 38, and wife Meghan Markle were placed in the second row behind William and his wife, Kate Middleton, at Queen Elizabeth's funeral in September.
As non-working royals, the Sussexes were not allowed on the balcony at Buckingham Palace for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations last June. Page Six is told that Harry did ask about seating before making the decision to fly over to England from his home in California for the coronation.

"Harry's heard nothing from Buckingham Palace for the seating," another insider told Page Six. "For the most part, I think all parties will be focused on making the day as special as possible for the king."

A rep for the Sussexes was unavailable for comment. The insider adds that although Harry is estranged from William, 40, he remains close to many of his cousins -- including Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, the daughters of Prince Andrew; as well as Princess Anne's daughter Zara Phillips and her husband Mike Tindall.

It's unlikely that Harry will be in attendance at a celebratory concert at Buckingham Palace as part of the post-coronation festivities.
Sources told Page Six that Harry plans to leave soon after the church service ends to fly back to the US, where the time difference could allow him to be with his son, Archie, on the boy's 4th birthday. Markle, 41, will miss her father-in-law's coronation amid the news that she had exchanged letters with Charles about "unconscious bias" within the royal family.

As Page Six previously revealed, the former "Suits" actress thinks it would be "inauthentic" to join the royal family at the event. Instead, she will stay home in California with her children to celebrate Archie's birthday.
The Sussexes don't appear to be letting coronation stress get the best of them, as they looked loved up on an outing to watch the Los Angeles Lakers play at home Monday night.
We're told they took their Archewell staff to the game and were seated in a private box at the Crypto.com arena.
