MEGHAN MCCAIN: God help America! Meghan has snubbed the coronation – and any hopes of her and Harry buzzing off back to the UK are lost forever. What did we do to deserve these whiny ingrates?
Only half the ‘Worldwide Privacy Tour’ will be taking the show on the road to United Kingdom.
And though that may be good news for the Royals, it’s tragically bad news for America.
On Wednesday, Buckingham Palace announced that Prince Harry – after reportedly missing the deadline to RSVP – graciously (wink-wink) accepted the invitation to attend his father’s coronation.
But there’s a catch. The Princess of Montecito won’t be with him.
Well, we’ve finally crossed the Rubicon.
There’s no making amends with the whiny distant cousin who constantly criticizes the wedding plans, only to then skip the big day anyway.
After Meghan-I’m-Still-Royalty-Markle has repeatedly trashed the Royal Family, what an insult to King Charles, Prince William – and the entire population of Great Britain.

This glorious, historic celebration is about welcoming the reign of King Charles and his Queen Camilla.
The Sussexes couldn’t even muster a good excuse.
Omid Scobie, H&M’s unofficial mouthpiece, tweeted confirmation of Harry’s solo act and added: ‘I understand that Archie’s fourth birthday (also on May 6) played a factor in the couple’s decision.’
Sure! I have to hand it to Harry and Meghan. This is a gallant effort at public-relations spin – invoking their child’s birthday party.
But let’s keep it real here. No one in their right mind believes Hollywood Meghan Markle is passing up a chance to peacock in front of the world to blow up balloons and serve cake in the backyard.
They couldn’t celebrate in the U.K.? Pssst… a preschooler has no idea what country he’s in.
There are arguably few people on Earth more obsessed with seeing themselves on camera than Meghan.
Now, all of a sudden, she doesn’t want to be pictured in public, dressed up in one of those ridiculous tiny hats? I’m sorry. I’m not buying it.
I believe brave Meghan is chickening out. It seems to me that she is clearly unwilling to face the music with her in-laws and the British public.
No matter how tone-deaf she is (and she’s pretty tone-deaf), she must be aware of how deeply unpopular she is in her husband’s home country. She would likely be booed the second the private jet’s wheels touch down.

Any hopes that they’d get tired of the California sunshine and buzz off back to Great Britain are utterly lost.
And that love of attention goes for her husband as well. For all his hatred of the media, he sure does share a lot of intimate details of his life with… the media.
I’ve read more than I’d care to about Harry’s sexual history, his genitalia and his drug use. But, as Omid also made clear, the Prince’s jaunt to London will be a short one.
‘Expect it to be a fairly quick trip to the UK for Prince Harry, who will only be attending the coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey,’ he tweeted.
I assume this means there’s no time for Harry to interact in any significant way with his family. That’s pretty cruel.
Once and for all, this demolishes the Sussexes’ claim that they’re interested in reconciliation.
Harry was asked in January, while he was promoting his memoir that exposed embarrassing secrets about his father, stepmother and brother, if he was going to attend the coronation. ‘There’s a lot that can happen between now and then,’ he said. ‘The ball is in their court.’
If that had been the truth – if these wayward two were really interested in healing the gaping wounds they’ve opened – then surely, they would have welcomed this olive-branch, both accepted the King’s invitation, chosen to attend the day in full and be done with it. But they didn’t.
For this part, the King is putting on a brave face. Charles is ‘pleased’ with his son’s decision, according to Royal Insiders.
The rest of the family, however, reportedly will be ‘relieved’ at the news. Royal experts suggested an appearance by Meghan would have been particularly ‘uncomfortable’ for the Princess of Wales.

If Meghan were to attend the coronation, she would be relegated to the same place she and Harry occupied during Queen Elizabeth’s funeral – the D-List. To her, that’s unacceptable.
You don’t say? Of course, it would be uncomfortable for Princess Kate to pretend everything is hunky dory.
They may be breathing a sigh of relief across the pond. But this means that Meghan is left stranded on our side of the water.
Good grief!
Any hopes that they’d get tired of the California sunshine and buzz off back to Great Britain are utterly lost.
In the end, it’s obvious why Meghan is choosing to pass on the coronation: It’s not about her.
This glorious, historic celebration is about welcoming the reign of a new King and his Queen. It is also about highlighting the next generation of working Royals, not the ones who hightailed it out of town to go hang out with Ellen DeGeneres.

But Meghan and the Prince of Mope have made their beds – and now they must lie in them. Their decision will hang over Harry’s trip – and it will give Americans even more reason to be disgusted by them both. No one likes an ingrate.
