Meghan Markle's absence from King Charles's coronation sparks controversy.

Meghan Markle's estranged father, Thomas Markle, has said that she was right to skip King Charles III's coronation due to the family feud. Prince Harry made a brief appearance at the ceremony before leaving to celebrate his son Archie's fourth birthday in California. Meghan held a low-key celebration for Archie at their mansion in Montecito, California, and baked a lemon cake using fruit from their garden. Thomas Markle believes that it was for the best that Meghan stayed at home due to the disagreements between her, Harry, and the Royals.
