The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not confirmed whether they will attend the Coronation

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been reminded that the "family unit is very important" by the Duchess of York.

Harry and Meghan's relationship with the Royal Family remains tense after the Sussexes launched multiple public attacks on the Firm.


Despite this, King Charles has invited his son and Meghan to his Coronation in May 2023.

During an interview, Sarah Ferguson was asked whether King Charles is upset with Harry's bombshell autobiography Spare which contained attacks on multiple senior royals.

Fergie was asked: "Do you think he's upset with the book that Harry wrote?

"I know that reports that Harry and Meghan are invited to the Coronation and he must as a parent feel a little scarred by what was said in the book."

She replied: "Personally, I feel there should be no judgement on any level.

"Family unity is very important.

"In life, it's the three C's: communicate, compromise, compassion."

Last week, Sarah Ferguson claimed that she "does not know" Meghan Markle, in a move that contradicted claims made by the Sussexes.

Meghan and Harry have previously spoken of their closeness to the Duchess of York.

The Duchess of York told the Telegraph: "I don’t really know Meghan. I haven’t really met her."

However, the claim contradicts statements made by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.The couple has claimed that Sarah Ferguson has been one of the friendlier members of the Royal Family.

The Sussexes also said they had drinks with Sarah at her home in The Royal Lodge.

Prince Harry wrote in his autobiography Spare that Sarah Ferguson taught Meghan Markle how to curtsey ahead of her first meeting with Queen Elizabeth II.

The Sussexes also made the curtsey claim during their explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey.
