The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, are set to attend the King's Coronation in May, but a question looms over whether their young children will accompany them.
The royal couple may need to arrange for a babysitter as it seems unlikely that their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lillibet, will be present at the grand event scheduled to be held at Westminster Abbey.
Officially, there is no prohibition on the attendance of young royal children at such ceremonies.
However, it is a common practice to keep very young members of the royal family away from such formal occasions.
This was evident when Princess Louise, daughter of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, missed their wedding in 2018 due to her tender age at that time.
Adding to the complexity, the date of the coronation coincides with Archie's fourth birthday, presenting a potential conflict for the family.
In the event that Harry and Meghan choose to participate in the ceremony, they are likely to allocate part of the day to celebrating their son's special day.
To manage childcare responsibilities, Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland, known for her hands-on approach with her grandchildren, may join the family for support.
The Sussexes have made prior arrangements for childcare, including the employment of a dedicated nanny for Archie and Lillibet in the United States.
Additionally, a pediatric nursing consultant, Loero Camulo, has been entrusted with the care of Archie since his birth.
In a recent interview, Ms. Camulo expressed her positive experiences working with the family, highlighting the warm reception she received from Harry and her admiration for Meghan.
Although it remains uncertain whether Archie and Lillibet have been formally invited to the coronation, it is anticipated that their cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louise, will be in attendance.
Speculation surrounds Prince George's potential role in the ceremony, while it is unlikely that Harry and Meghan will have official duties or appear on the Buckingham Palace Balcony alongside other royals.
As the royal family navigates these intricate arrangements, the question of who will care for Archie and Princess Lillibet during the coronation persists.
