The enigmatic toast of King Carlos III for Archie: a gesture of family reconciliation?

Prince William, in an unexpected gesture, got up during the meal and congratulated his father on this long-awaited day. Carlos, visibly moved, thanked everyone involved for making his coronation one of the most special days of his entire life. But the most emotional thing about this family reunion was the toast that Charles III made in honor of his three grandchildren, the new generation of British royals: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, who shone at the coronation. Besidesthere was also a special toast “to the absent (grandchildren)”, wishing a happy birthday to his other grandson, Archie, the eldest son of Harry and Meghan Markle, “wherever he is”.

Despite the fact that one of the supposed demands of the Dukes of Sussex to attend the enthronement of Carlos III was that a public reference to Archie’s birthday be made, the truth is that this action has surprised everyone, given that the relationship between the British sovereign and his grandson Archie has been virtually non-existent since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle abandoned their royal duties and moved to the United States in early 2020. However, in this family gathering he showed that, despite the distance, Carlos III did not forget his grandson and wanted to celebrate his birthday in a very special way.

As for Prince Harry, his presence at the coronation was very discreet and without Meghan Markle by his side. Lady Diana’s youngest son was placed in the background during the ceremony and was excluded from the family greeting on the Buckingham balcony. Royal protocol assigned him a place two rows behind her brother William, who is the heir to the throne, and also behind other members of the Royal Family, in a clear sign of his low standing in the Royal Family. british.

As it was expected, Harry’s return to London aroused great expectations. The local press reported that the Duke of Sussex arrived on a commercial flight and intended to quickly return to the United States to celebrate Archie’s birthday. However, he surprised everyone when, at the end of the ceremony, he headed for Heathrow airport to catch a flight back to California, declining Charles III’s invitation to attend the post-coronation luncheon. This caused confusion among some members of the royal family, especially Carlos III, who seemed disappointed by the departure of his son.
