King Charles' forthcoming coronation will just so happen to be on the same day as his grandson Archie’s birthday.
. ET's royal expert, Katie Nicholls, is breaking down what the coincidence means for the Sussexes, and whether they'll attend the coronation.
"Well, having the coronation on Archie's birthday is definitely not a snub. I think it’s very much a happy coincidence," Nicholls said of the coronation falling on Archie's fourth birthday. "Obviously, a huge amount of planning has to go into an important moment in history, such as a coronation, and the royal calendar is full of anniversaries and birthdays, so I think this is absolutely one of those occasions where it’s a coincidence and hopefully a happy coincidence.
Whether Harry and Meghan will attend is another story, with Nicholls telling ET that it's not clear yet if they've received an invite. "We haven’t got any official details on the guest list, but I’m hearing they are likely to be invited along with other senior and extended family members," she shared."Whether or not we see them there -- we have to wait and see, but it’s my understanding they will be, of course, receiving an invitation to the coronation."
"It remains to be seen whether or not they attend," Nicholls continued, adding,"but of course, it will be down to the Sussexes to make the ultimate decision as to whether they're going to come over for King Charles coronation on May the 6th."
