When he was informed by his father, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/prince-charles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">King Charles III</a>, that his wife <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/meghan-markle">Meghan Markle</a> was not invited to join the now-king, his wife, and his brother William on the day Queen Elizabeth II died, Prince Harry apparently snubbed his father by refusing to come by himself, according to a report from The Sun.
Harry had reportedly insisted on his wife accompanying him to Balmoral, but his father, King Charles, told it him that would be inappropriate.
“It was a massive snub,” a source told <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/19892627/harry-snub-william-charles-dinner-meghan-fury/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Sun</a> of Harry coming too late for the dinner.
Harry, also known as the Duke of Sussex, was staying at Frogmore Cottage, Windsor, when Charles informed him that Markle was not welcome with the small group of family, allegedly precipitating an argument.  That argument reportedly delayed Harry long enough that he missed his flight with Prince William and their uncles Andrew and William to Scotland, thus <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11240909/Prince-Harry-snubbed-Charles-William-Balmoral-King-BANNED-Meghan-joining.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">missing a chance</a> to say goodbye to his grandmother.
Another source has disputed The Sun&#8217;s story, <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/09/22/prince-harry-did-not-snub-king-charles-iii-over-alleged-meghan-ban/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">telling</a> the New York Post that it was other traveling difficulties that prevented Harry from making it to the queen&#8217;s bedside and that the dinner &#8220;snub&#8221; did not happen.
According to The Sun though, Harry caught a later flight, but snubbed the dinner with his father, Queen Consort Camilla and Prince William, instead eating with the Duke of York and the Earl and Countess of Wessex.
Prince Harry, who stated with Meghan Markle in 2020 they were relinquishing their roles as senior working royals, was banned from saluting Queen Elizabeth’s funeral procession to Westminster Abbey on Monday .
Reports have indicated that the rift between the royal family and Harry and Meghan ruptured when the couple refused to come to England for a memorial service for Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth’s husband and Harry’s grandfather. Harry claimed their absence resulted from an argument over security.
The British Home Office had made clear that Harry and Meghan were not permitted to fund their own security, prompting Harry’s team to issue a <a href="https://www.marieclaire.com/celebrity/royals/why-didnt-prince-harry-attend-prince-philip-memorial-service/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> saying, “While his role within the Institution has changed, his profile as a member of the royal family has not. Nor has the threat to him and his family.”
The statement added of the security the British were prepared to offer, “That security cannot replicate the necessary police protection needed whilst in the UK. In absence of such protection, Prince Harry and his family are unable to return home.”
Harry did attend Prince Philip’s funeral later, but Robert Lacey, who served as a consultant for Netflix&#8217;s “The Crown,” <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9726785/Prince-William-called-Meghan-Markle-bloody-woman-treated-staff-badly.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> of the reunion between Harry and William, “They started quarreling again.”
A friend of both men told Lacey, “There they were, at each other&#8217;s throats as fiercely as ever. The rage and anger between those two has grown so incredibly deep. Too many harsh and wounding things have been said.”

Royal TV watchers spotted an eight-legged creature hitching a ride in London on the late-Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s coffin, and it&#8217;s been dubbed the &#8220;luckiest spider in the world.&#8221;
In images that surfaced on social media Monday, we see the little spider crawling over the handwritten card left by her son, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/we-struggle-to-heat-our-homes-king-charles-iii-gets-heckled-in-wales">King Charles III,</a> and in the floral wreath on the coffin during the royal funeral procession, the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11227401/Moment-runaway-spider-Queens-garden-seen-crawling-coffin-Westminster-Abbey.html">Daily Mail</a> reported.
The spider was only seen for a few seconds, as the late monarch&#8217;s coffin was draped in the Royal Standard traveling down the nave of Westminster Abbey before the funeral.

LONDON &#8211; On a fittingly gloomy day, thousands filled the streets of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/london" target="_blank" rel="noopener">London</a> on Monday to say goodbye to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/queen-elizabeth" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II,</a> in hopes of seeing her casket carried through the city as part of the royal procession for her <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/united-kingdom" target="_blank" rel="noopener">grand state funeral</a>.
The Queen’s casket first <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-60617519" target="_blank" rel="noopener">departed</a> from Westminster Hall, where she had been lying in state, to Westminster Abbey. At the Abbey, the Queen received a funeral service attended by 2,000 individuals, including heads of state from around the globe. President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden were in attendance.
Throngs of people from around the United Kingdom began lining up Sunday night to secure a spot in the crowd to say their final goodbyes to the monarch who served her country for 70 years on the throne. Many began making preparations for this historic day as soon as they heard she had passed away on September 8.
One wife and husband donning a dress and suit, respectively, told The Daily Wire that they woke up at 3:00 am to make the trip to see the Queen’s coffin.
“When the news broke that she had died, we spoke as a family, and without any hesitation, we booked the trains to be here,” the husband said.
When asked if the state funeral could compare to any other event in the United Kingdom, the man added that he and his wife had seen “nothing like this. But it’s an experience for us all.”
When asked how they felt about the monarchy in general, the pair remarked they were “proud. Very proud.”
“Our children are proud,” the husband added. “And [the monarch] will carry on.&#8221;
The entire city appeared to be dressed in black for the somber day as accents from all over the U.K. could be heard praying or crying. Most of the crowd was silent in reverent observance of the ceremony, with many “shushing” those who attempted to speak.
Even those who don’t necessarily support the royal family came to pay their respects to the dearly departed leader.
Throughout the procession, the city seemed to be at a standstill. No cafe, restaurant, or shop has opened its doors today.
One visitor from Germany, a 23-year-old named Nicholas, told The Daily Wire that he happened to have three trips planned to London before the Queen passed away. He also wasn’t planning on attending but did so and remarked the city-wide mourning was “an amazing thing to see.”
“We obviously don’t have these kinds of things in Germany,” he added. “I didn’t expect it to be such a huge thing. Not to be in poor taste, but it’s kind of like a festival almost. It doesn’t really feel like a funeral.”
When asked how Germany reacted to the Queen’s death, he remarked, “Everybody felt it.”
As of press time, the Queen’s casket had <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/live-news/queen-elizabeth-ii-funeral-king-charles-iii-royal-family-news" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrived</a> at Windsor Castle for her burial at St. George’s Chapel.

Thousands Fill London Streets To Pay Final Respects To The Queen

England

<a href="https://dailywire.com/news/watch-king-charles-yells-at-pen-during-northern-ireland-signing-ceremony/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">King Charles III</a> may soon move to exclude Prince Andrew, Princess Beatrice, and Prince Harry from acting as official stand-ins if he should be &#8220;incapacitated.&#8221;
<a href="https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Edw8and1Geo6/1/16/contents" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Regency Act of 1937</a> allows a monarch&#8217;s spouse and the next four in line for the throne can on occasion be called up to act as &#8220;Councillors of State&#8221; — appearing on behalf of the king or queen to conduct official business. And according to a report published Sunday by The Telegraph, Britain&#8217;s new king may be ready to make some adjustments to that arrangement.
As noted by <a href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2022/09/17/king-charles-seeks-amend-law-who-can-act-official-stand-in/">The Telegraph</a>, &#8220;The move would see the Duke of York, the Duke of Sussex and Princess Beatrice all relieved of their duties as official stand-ins for the sovereign, should he be indisposed.&#8221;
The report suggested Charles may look to replace the Duke of York (Andrew) and the Duke of Sussex (Harry) with his sister, Princess Anne, and his younger brother, Prince Edward.
While the late Queen Elizabeth II was still living, her husband Prince Phillip filled that role until his death in April of 2021. The others who were able to occasionally appear or act on her behalf were then-Prince Charles, Prince Andrew, Prince William, and Prince Harry.
Even before the queen passed away, <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/queen-strips-prince-andrew-of-his-military-titles-and-use-of-his-royal-highness/">Prince Andrew</a> was stripped of his military titles over ties to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — and has not been a working member of the Royal Family for some time.
Prince Harry <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/watch-prince-harry-breaks-silence-on-royal-split-i-want-you-to-hear-the-truth-from-me/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stepped away</a> from his work as part of the Royal Family of his own accord, saying at the time, &#8220;I want you to hear the truth from me — as much as I can share, not as a prince or a duke, but as Harry, the same person that many of you have watched grow up over the past 35 years, but now with a clearer perspective &#8230; The decision that I have made for my wife and I to step back is not one I made lightly. It was so many months of talks after so many years of challenges. And I know I haven’t always gotten it right, but as far as this goes, there really was no other option.&#8221;
Following Prince Harry and Meghan Markle&#8217;s exit from royal life, relationships between the prince and his family have <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/prince-harry-meghan-markle-uninvited-to-state-reception-found-out-through-media-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">publicly ranged</a> from non-existent to awkward, prompting some to call for him to be stripped of his <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/pressure-builds-to-strip-meghan-markle-and-prince-harry-of-their-royal-titles-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">royal titles</a> altogether.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/prince-harry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Prince Harry</a> and wife <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/meghan-markle" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Meghan Markle</a> reportedly found out through media reports that they have been uninvited from a state reception for royals and world leaders set for Saturday.
The duo live in California and announced their <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-harry-and-meghan-announce-split-from-royal-family" target="_blank" rel="noopener">split</a> from royal life in 2020, aiming to become &#8220;financially independent.&#8221;
&#8220;The invite is for working members of the royal family only,&#8221; a spokesperson for King Charles III <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/09/17/harry-meghan-learned-about-being-uninvited-to-reception-from-press/?_ga=2.217011926.1996147791.1663069826-611153849.1658343382" target="_blank" rel="noopener">confirmed</a> to Page Six.
The pair apparently received an invite to the event, but are not welcome to attend.
“Harry and Meghan actually got the invitation and no-one has actually told them they are uninvited,” one source said.
&#8220;I’m told they only found out they were uninvited by reading press reports,&#8221; a different royal source told Page Six.
Despite their departure from royal duties, Prince Harry and Markle still have their royal titles as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. A movement is growing for the pair to have those titles stripped, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pressure-builds-to-strip-meghan-markle-and-prince-harry-of-their-royal-titles-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire</a> reported last week.
“There has been a petition, a movement from the people of the county of Sussex, they’re supposed to represent, to remove them,” royal expert Hilary Fordwich <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/pressure-builds-prince-harry-people-sussex-petition-remove-his-meghans-titles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> Fox News. “Why? Because they’re taking the name but they’re not doing anything for the people of Sussex. This is a dilemma. This is not a celebrity role. It is a role of duty. So you need to do your duty and then hold the title. Why would anybody want the title if they don’t want to do their duty to the people of the county of Sussex? You either do or you don’t. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.”
Prince Harry and Markle have attracted much attention since distancing themselves from the royal family, engaging in Woke politics, and throwing out accusations of racism.
Notably, rumors about <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/meghan-markle-bullied-royal-aides-complaint-was-filed-report-says">Markle bullying royal aides</a> popped up in the media last year.
In July, an investigation into the allegations concluded, but findings are being kept under wraps, allegedly because Buckingham Palace is “terrified” of antagonizing Markle and Prince Harry, who’ve routinely trashed all things royal.
“Considering those who participated [in the investigation] did so at great personal and reputational risk to themselves, the fact that they haven’t even been told what the findings are is unfathomable,” a source explained. “I am sure they will be deeply distressed, but perhaps not entirely surprised given how things have been handled. The household seems to be terrified of upsetting or provoking Harry and Meghan.”

Queen Elizabeth II died last week at Balmoral. She was 96 years old.
She was active during the entirety of her decades-long reign. The most well-traveled monarch in history, the queen visited 110 countries and was received so well that major parks, cities, and statues bearing her namesake can be found in nearly every corner of the globe. She was ubiquitous in popular culture, appearing in ceremonies, sporting events, and coins, and was the subject of films and shows. As of 2021, Queen Elizabeth II was named the third most admired woman in a global survey. She was the only royal on the list.
In a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/buckingham-palace-releases-first-statement-from-his-majesty-the-king" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> from the royal household shared on Twitter, the King, formerly known as Prince Charles, spoke about his mother’s death.
“The death of my beloved, Mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family.”
“We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved Mother,” it added. “I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world.”
“During this period of mourning and change, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which the Queen was so widely held,” the statement concluded.

The first incident occurred when cameras caught Charles making an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/twitter-flips-over-king-charles-iii-getting-snappy-with-staff-on-day-2-as-king">overly annoyed face</a> when a staff member didn’t remove a pen tray that was in his way quickly enough. The caption of the viral Twitter clip says, “The servant must clear my desk for me. I can’t be expected to move things.”
This may come as a surprise to anyone who hasn’t been paying attention, especially since King Charles is following in the footsteps of his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth, who was believed to have been a lot more gracious with staff.
But royal fans already called Charles “The Pampered Prince” long before he became a coddled king. In truth, the King of the United Kingdom is known for some peculiar and fussy proclivities that mere peasants can’t even begin to fathom.
Perhaps the most notorious story about King Charles is that he refuses to squeeze his own toothpaste. Princess Diana’s former butler Paul Burrell recalled this detail about the monarch in the Amazon documentary “Serving the Royals: Inside the Firm.”
&#8220;His pajamas are pressed every morning, his shoelaces are pressed flat with an iron, the bath plug has to be in a certain position and the water temperature has to be just tepid,&#8221; Burrell said, per <a href="https://www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/reports/a38743898/prince-charles-doesnt-squeeze-out-his-own-toothpaste/">Cosmopolitan</a>.
The butler continued, saying Charles, &#8220;has his valets squeeze one inch of toothpaste onto his toothbrush every morning.&#8221;
Royal loyalists fought back against this claim, insisting that Charles only asked his valet to perform that particular duty for a brief time in the 90s while his arm was in a sling following a polo match accident. However, the king’s reputation for being spoiled doesn’t depend on a single rumor about toothpaste. 
Royal reporter Clive Goodman from <a href="https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/1273401/royal-family-news-royal-household-staff-servant-queen-elizabeth-ii-prince-charles-spt">Express</a> also claims Charles does nothing for himself.
“The Prince of Wales, he doesn’t lift a thing,” Goodman asserted in the 2011 YouTube documentary “Royal Servants.”
“He gets up in the morning, his bathrobe is there waiting for him; he walks into the bathroom, the bath is drawn for him already. Even when he gets out of the bath, the towel is folded in a special way so he just has to sit in it and wrap it around himself.”
“When it comes to bathing the bath plug has to be in a certain position,” the butler explained, saying “the water temperature has to be just tepid, and only half full.”
Burrell speculated that since Charles, “has grown up in such a privileged lifestyle that he doesn’t have the mechanics to choose for himself anymore. Absolutely everything is done for him.”
“On one occasion, he rang me from his library and he said, ‘Oh Paul, a letter from the queen seems to have fallen into my wastepaper bin. Would you pick it out?’” Burrell said on “Inside the Firm.”
The concept of royal dressers may seem antiquated, but former staff members from the Palace say King Charles employs not one, but two, people who are tasked with putting clothes onto his body.
In the documentary “The Madness of Prince Charles,” royal biographer Anthony Holden explained, “Charles, for all his attempts to find out how the other half lives and interest in the less fortunate in society, for all that, he has two men, paid for by the state, to help him get dressed in the morning.”
The 73-year-old royal is also quite fussy about what he wears. In the 2018 book “Rebel Prince, The Power, Passion and Defiance Of Prince Charles” by Tom Bowers, even more of his rumored demands became public knowledge.
Bowers allegedly <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/documentary-details-exactly-why-prince-011500291.html">conducted</a> 120 interviews and found that Charles changed his outfits up to five times per day, which could explain the need for multiple professional dressing assistants. He also supposedly sends his own food ahead of his arrival at dinner parties and will only use his own toilet seats, even while traveling. 
The fussy monarch reportedly insists on special royal sheets which must be perfectly ironed and wrinkle free, which may take over an hour per bed to achieve. 
It’s not just clothing where King Charles is believed to be particular. Per Reader’s Digest, an insider <a href="https://www.rd.com/list/bizarre-royal-family-perks/">said </a>because the longest-serving heir apparent in history likes his biscuits warmed to a precise temperature. Because of this, kitchen staff must keep the pan hot through the monarch’s entire meal so he can enjoy them at the end of supper, which he prefers.
The biography “Rebel Prince” by Tom Bower reiterated some of these claims. The author wrote how Charles, “takes luxury loo roll, a toilet seat, a chest of drawers, an orthopedic mattress and two landscapes of the Scottish Highlands on longer journeys.” 
It also mentioned that the monarch has “a police officer to carry his own pre-mixed cocktails to functions.”
Obviously, these rumors have never been confirmed by King Charles though he did address the toilet seat claims once. When a Brisbane radio station DJ asked the royal family member about whether he really traveled with own toilet seat, Charles <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/prince-charles-toilet-seat-rumours-response-radio-australia-commonwealth-games-a8290436.html">replied</a>, “My own what? Oh, don’t believe all that crap. The very idea.”
The interviewer repeated the question to Charles’ wife Camilla, who apparently “responded only with an exasperated sigh.”
Royal fans will never know for sure how much truth there is to all the rumors about Prince Charles and his spoiled ways. However, there’s no denying that the longest-serving heir apparent in history has lived a life of luxury by any standard. 
This could explain why he’s not too high up on the list in terms of popularity. According to a 2022 Statista <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/863823/most-liked-members-of-the-royal-family/">poll</a>, 81% of respondents said they had a positive view of Queen Elizabeth while 75% said the same of Prince William, who has since become the Prince of Wales and heir to the throne.
Charles only ranked fifth on the list, coming in behind Catherine, Princess of Wales and Princess Anne. His popularity was at 54% (which doesn&#8217;t sound so low compared to Prince Andrew’s 5% rating.)
King Charles’ popularity could improve now that he’s in charge, but first he’ll have to reign in the overreactions, especially when cameras are rolling.

The English broadcaster&#8217;s comments came in response to a tweet from CNN&#8217;s London correspondent, Max Foster, who shared a quote from a spokesperson for the Duke of Sussex.
&#8220;Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex will wear a morning suit throughout events [honoring] his grandmother,&#8221; Foster&#8217;s tweet read.  &#8220;His decade of military service is not determined by the uniform he wears and we respectfully ask that focus remain on the life and legacy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.&#8221;

In the piece, Morgan first noted Prince Harry&#8217;s quote about honoring his father, King Charles III.
&#8220;We now honor my father in his new role as King Charles III,&#8221; Prince Harry shared in a statement following his grandmother&#8217;s death.
He wrote that the duke has been &#8220;dishonoring&#8221; his father for the past two years.
&#8220;Twelve short words, but ones that carry enormous significance coming from the man who has spent the past two years publicly dishonoring his father,&#8221; Morgan wrote.
Later, he slammed the duke&#8217;s reported &#8220;&#8216;tell-all&#8217; book due to be published later this year or early next, in which he [Harry] will reportedly rip into the royals yet again in what Harry says will be a &#8216;first-hand account of my life that&#8217;s accurate and wholly truthful.'&#8221;

&#8220;I just have to put — is it September the 12th?&#8221; he asked, turning to his wife, Queen Consort Camilla, for an answer.
&#8220;13th, Sir,&#8221; someone behind him replied.
&#8220;Oh God, I&#8217;ve put the wrong date down &#8230; 13th?&#8221; Charles repeated.
&#8220;Yes, Sir,&#8221; the answer came from behind him again.
&#8220;You signed the 12th earlier,&#8221; Camilla pointed out.
&#8220;Oh, God, I hate this pen!&#8221; Charles said, standing up as the pen apparently leaked ink on his hand.
He handed the pen over to Camilla, who remarked, &#8220;Oh look, it&#8217;s going everywhere, hang on.&#8221;
Someone quickly swept in to remove the offending writing instrument, replacing it with another before Camilla sat down, wiped ink from her fingers, and signed the book herself.
&#8220;I can&#8217;t bear this bloody thing! What they do every stinking time,&#8221; Charles could be heard saying as he walked away from the cameras, still wiping his fingers and trying to get them clean.
Charles was quickly escorted from the room while Camilla remained behind to finish signing the book.
While several took to Twitter to criticize the moment, saying that Charles had displayed his temper when he should have been able to keep it in check, the majority suggested that they might have done the same if presented with a similar situation.

King Charles Yells At A Pen During Northern Ireland Signing Ceremony

LONDON – The British capital city is poised to host hundreds of thousands of travelers and some of the world&#8217;s most influential people in anticipation of Queen Elizabeth II’s historic state funeral next week. 
The funeral ceremony, set to take place at Westminster Abbey on September 19, will bring together a diverse group of royals and politicians, including U.S. President Joe Biden and Japanese Emperor Naruhito. All of them will unite to pay tribute to Britain’s longest-serving monarch, who died last Thursday at the age of 96 of unspecified causes. 
The funeral day will be a bank holiday, and an unprecedented crowd of 750,000 travelers is <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/sep/12/london-transport-queens-funeral-rail-tfl-westminster-hall">expected</a> to gather at the Abbey to witness her majesty’s procession. The church hosted the Queen’s marriage to Prince Philip in 1947 and her coronation in 1953.

The funeral will begin with the queen’s coffin being carried from Westminster Hall to Westminster Abbey on the State Gun Carriage of the Royal Navy. Following the service, the coffin will be drawn in a walking procession to Wellington Arch, at London&#8217;s Hyde Park Corner, before reaching its destination at St. George&#8217;s Chapel in Windsor Castle.
British officials have warned that the guest list will be extremely limited. 
The White House confirmed Sunday that President Joe Biden will attend with the first lady, but won’t bring a delegation with him. “Her legacy will loom large in the pages of British history, and in the story of our world,” Biden said in a statement praising the queen’s diplomacy.

The Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office (FCDO) said in documents obtained by Politico that it “regrets that, because of limited space at the state funeral service and associated events, no other members of the principal guest’s family, staff or entourage may be admitted.” Strict protocols and regulations will also be in place for foreign dignitaries, and private flights, and the use of helicopter transport from London-Heathrow airport will not be permitted. 
According to the guidance, Politico reported, heads of state should plan to arrive at other London airports if the use of commercial flights is unfeasible. To “reduce disruption and transit time at airports,” the rules continue, accompanying delegations should be kept “as small as possible.”
These restrictions will extend to London’s streets, as international leaders will not be allowed to travel to the funeral in their own private vehicles. Instead, they will meet at a separate location where they will be provided with coach transport. 
Visiting diplomats will not be provided any “Autocue or makeup facilities.”
In addition to the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, the Princess Royal, the Duke of York, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex, the late Queen’s grandchildren, Prince William, and Prince Harry, will be present at the event.

Other European monarchs set to attend include members of the royal families of Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Norway, Belgium, and the Netherlands. 
The U.K.’s newly inaugurated prime minister, Liz Truss, is expected to make an appearance along with the British Labour party leader, Keir Starmer. Truss, who became British prime minister earlier this month, met with the queen mere days before her death. 
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Arden, France’s President Emmanuel Macron, and Japan’s Emperor Naruhito are all scheduled to pay their respects. 
Foreign Secretary James Cleverly is expected to host a reception for these distinguished guests following the Westminster Abbey ceremony.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/prince-charles">King Charles III</a> has been <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/monarchy">king</a> for only a few days, and he’s already getting negative publicity thanks to a video of him insistently gesturing to his aides that went viral over the weekend. 
One of the clips comes courtesy of the parody <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/twitter">Twitter</a> account Laura Kuenssberg Translator, and as of Monday, it has close to 26 million views.

“With all his wealth, he could already afford some manners,” another <a href="https://twitter.com/SJK_Hopes/status/1568832717860794369">agreed</a>. 
“The new King of England showing us who he really is,” another <a href="https://twitter.com/Thewiseonewon/status/1568776790449037316">said</a>. 
The clip drew as much ire as another snippet from the same day. King Charles had run out of room on his tiny desk and made an impatient face while gesturing for an aide standing by to move some items out of his way.

Twitter viewers were not amused by these antics and expressed displeasure in their replies.
“That’s what growing up privileged does to you. That’s why they only want people that live the same way around them. They only are nice to common folk when the cameras are around. The common folk are just that to them,” one person <a href="https://twitter.com/JaimeCasarez2/status/1568617297912238082">replied</a>. 
“He didn&#8217;t just gesture. He was rude. This says a lot about him and not in a good way,” one person <a href="https://twitter.com/marydockham/status/1568659733057265665">shared</a>. 
However, King Charles had plenty of defenders who insisted it was well within his rights to expect the staffers to perform their job functions. 
“People moaning about this need to get a life. I&#8217;m a republican but I can see here a bereaved, bit stressed, man trying to get something done,” one person <a href="https://twitter.com/coaldragon/status/1568922145958363136">said</a>. “I&#8217;m sure the assistant was more than understanding. The face is just one of&#8230; &#8216;aaaargh, sort this out will ya&#8217;, that&#8217;s all.”
