"That's what's the bottom line it comes down to."

Oprah added during her interview with CBS Mornings: "They haven't asked me my opinion."

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's children Archie and Lilibet are not invited to the King's Coronation.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed they have received their invitations to the historic ceremony in May but their children will not be joining them if they choose to attend.

The Sussexes are facing a heartbreaking choice between attending the event at Westminster Abbey or being with their son Archie on his fourth birthday.

Archie will turn four on May 6th, the first day of King Charles's Coronation.

A possible solution for the Sussexes could be to bring Archie and Lilibet to the UK with them before attending the ceremony without their children.

However, the Sussexes' UK security concerns may mean the couple feel that is not an option.

Under the section of Succession on the website, Harry and Meghan's children are called Prince Archie of Sussex and Princess Lilibet of Sussex.

Prince Harry is fifth in line to the throne whilst his children are sixth and seventh in the line of succession.
