King Charles REFUTES Harry's Lies In Interviews That He Was Invited To Trooping The Color But Denied

On Saturday, June 15th, 2024, King Charles III celebrated his milestone 75th birthday at the annual Trooping the Colour ceremony in central London. This longstanding tradition marks the official birthday of the British sovereign, even though the monarch's actual birth date falls on November 14th.
The grand parade and military display, which features the Queen's Household Division of the British Army, is a highlight of the monarch's calendar and a beloved fixture in the UK's national celebrations. This year's event was particularly poignant, as it marked the first time King Charles had taken the salute as the reigning monarch, following the passing of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in 2022.
Despite the joyous occasion, the Trooping the Colour ceremony was notable for the conspicuous absence of two high-profile members of the royal family - Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. According to royal commentator Tom Quinn, there was a brief discussion among senior royals about extending an invitation to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but the idea was quickly dismissed.
"There is a feeling that they cast a dark shadow over everything," Quinn told The Mirror, alluding to the ongoing tensions and rift between Harry and Meghan, and the rest of the Windsor clan.
The Sussexes last attended the Trooping the Colour parade in 2019, just months before they stepped down as senior working royals and relocated to California. In the years since, Harry's strained relationship with his family, particularly his brother, Prince William, has kept him away from royal engagements and Buckingham Palace.
Most recently, Harry declined an invitation to attend the high-profile wedding of the Duke of Westminster, citing his ongoing estrangement from the future King.
In contrast, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, along with their three children - Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6 - were all present at the birthday celebrations. The Cambridges' high-profile appearance marked the first public outing for Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, in over six months, as she had been battling a serious illness, later revealed to be cancer.
Despite the health challenges and ongoing family tensions, the Cambridges presented a united and supportive front, waving to the cheering crowds from the balcony of Buckingham Palace. Their presence stood in stark contrast to the notable absence of the Sussexes, underscoring the continued divisions within the royal family, even as they came together to honor King Charles III's 75th birthday.
The Trooping the Colour ceremony is always a highly anticipated event in the British royal calendar, but this year's edition was imbued with an added layer of poignancy and drama, reflecting the complex dynamics that have come to define the House of Windsor in recent years.
