Oprah Winfrey has had a close friendship with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle over the years, and now the American presenter has revealed whether the couple should attend King Charles’ coronation in May.
Speaking with Gayle King on CBS Morning, Oprah was asked her thoughts on whether they will make an appearance and reunite with their family following the release of the all-telling book Spare and the docuseries, Harry & Meghan.
“Do you think they should go, do you think they should not go? Is it something you’d like to comment on? I’m listening,” remarked Gayle, who is also a friend of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
To which, Oprah replied: “I think they should do what they feel is best for them and for their family. That’s what I think.
“That’s what the bottom line comes down to. What do you feel is the right thing for you?” She then added: “They haven’t asked me my opinion. No, they have not.”
Earlier this month, it was confirmed that King Charles had invited his son Harry and daughter-in-law Meghan to his coronation, which will take place at Westminster Abbey on 6 May.
A spokesperson for the couple, however, did not reveal whether they would attend. They said: “I can confirm The Duke has recently received email correspondence from His Majesty’s office regarding the coronation.
“An immediate decision on whether the Duke and Duchess will attend will not be disclosed by us at this time.”
