Sarah Ferguson has revealed she is yet to receive an invite to King Charles III’s upcoming coronation, which takes place at Westminster Abbey on 6 May.
It was recently revealed that prospective guests have been asked to save the date ahead of official invitations that will be sent later.
During a chat with Extra TV, Sarah – who is on a publicity tour for her new historical novel, A Most Intriguing Lady, in the US – revealed that the invitations “haven’t gone out yet”.
“The invitations haven’t gone out yet, so I don’t know if I’m going to be there because, you know, who wants me around,” she said when asked if her invitation had come through the door yet. “I was thinking that I would open a little tearoom, a portable tearoom at the bottom of the drive.”
The 63-year-old author was married to the monarch’s brother Prince Andrew, and together, they share two daughters – Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
The guestlist for the historic event is yet to be confirmed and many royal-watchers have been left wondering whether Prince Harry and his wife Meghan will attend.
A statement from Prince Harry and Meghan said they had been contacted about the coronation. “I can confirm the Duke has recently received email correspondence from His Majesty’s office regarding the coronation,” a spokesperson for the couple said. “An immediate decision on whether the Duke and Duchess will attend will not be disclosed by us at this time.”
