The Duke of Sussex is set to fly home straight after the ceremony

Prince Harry "will not see" King Charles and Prince William during the Coronation, Princess Diana's former butler has claimed.

The Prince of Wales and his brother have reportedly not spoken since September 2022 following Queen Elizabeth II's funeral.


Paul Burrell told GB News that the Duke of Sussex does not want to spend much time around the Royal Family and that "there is no chance of reconciliation anytime soon".

He added that Prince Harry will be sat "ten rows back" from the senior members of the monarchy as he is no longer a working royal.

Burrell said: "He is coming to show face.

"He is coming to put his foot in the door. He is coming because his father wants him to be there.

"His father will be delighted that both his sons will be there to witness this incredible day in his life.

"But Harry is not going to hang around."

The former royal butler added: "He doesn't want to spend much time around them.

"There is no chance of a reconciliation anytime soon, I'm afraid - I think he will get a very icy reception from the Windsors.

"He will be sitting ten rows back. He will not even see his brother or his father in that time.

"He will be in and out in a flash."

Prince Harry is reportedly not planning to attend the lunch after the Coronation ceremony in order to fly back to the US in time for his son's birthday.

Prince Archie's fourth birthday falls on the same day as the Coronation and the Duke of Sussex is hoping to be able to spend the evening with his son back in California.

Meghan Markle is not going to the Coronation and will remain in Montecito with their two young children.
