Prince Harry will not be wearing his military uniform for his father King Charles and Queen Camilla's coronation. The Duke of Sussex, 38, will be wearing a morning suit for the historic ceremony, which means he will not be in uniform or wearing any of his military medals. PEOPLE understands Harry was asked to wear a morning suit -- and he was happy to go along with the request.

Harry served in the British Army for 10 years and undertook two tours in Afghanistan. The prince also has no formal role in the service and he will not be a part of the Coronation Procession from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace following the crowning ceremony. During the service, Harry is expected to be sitting alongside some of his cousins, including Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.

Members of the royal family who will take part in the procession include Kate Middleton and Prince William with their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. They will ride in the first carriage following the historic Gold State Coach, which King Charles and Queen Camilla will be traveling in. Meanwhile, Princess Anne will be on horseback behind the Gold State Coach as the Gold Stick in Waiting.

The prestigious position, which Anne has held since 1998, dates back to the 15th century when two officers -- a Gold Stick and a Silver Stick -- were placed close to the monarch to protect them from harm.
