Over the past weekend, the Junior Royals had a grand time at the coronation, almost stealing the spotlight with their delightful presence.
However, Archie and Lilibet were notably absent, staying back in the US.
Angela Epstein ponders if, in the future, they might feel a sense of missing out on such a significant event.
Parents often aim to create lasting memories for their children, and it seems that Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis have already amassed a treasure trove of unforgettable experiences in just 48 hours.
From witnessing the ceremony at Westminster Abbey to riding in the family carriage and standing on the Buckingham Palace balcony with their newly crowned grandpa, these young royals have etched themselves into the history of the momentous coronation weekend.
The charming moments captured of Kate's children will likely remain etched in our memories.
Whether it was the regal Prince George assisting his grandfather at the Abbey or the poised Princess Charlotte looking resplendent in her white ensemble, she showcased her responsible nature by guiding her playful brother, Louis, with grace.
Even the youngest royal, Louis, stole hearts with his adorable antics, showing that he has a mind of his own when it comes to royal protocol.
While the royal cousins basked in the festivities, there are those who, despite their blood ties to the King, may not share in these cherished memories.
Since stepping away from the royal family, Harry and Meghan have inadvertently deprived their children of a connection to their heritage.
The absence of Archie and Lilibet during such a significant event may lead them to question their place within the royal fold in the years to come.
As Archie and Lilibet grow older, they may come across footage of their cousin, Princess Charlotte, joyfully spotting her father at the coronation concert.
This could prompt them to wonder why they were not part of these family moments.
While platforms like Netflix and Oprah may provide insight into their parents' decisions, events like the coronation serve as a stark reminder of the birthright relinquished by Archie and Lilibet without their consent.
The future holds uncertainties for the Sussexes, but the day may come when their children question why they were excluded from not only a unique experience but also a family to which they inherently belong.
Despite the physical distance separating Archie and Lilibet from their cousins, they are also distanced by a world of complexities beyond geography.
