Meghan Markle's exclusion from the traditional Buckingham Palace balcony appearance at the King's coronation is said to be "more than she can bear."
The claim comes from a royal expert following the news that the Duchess of Sussex will remain at home in California with Archie and Lilibet while Prince Harry attends the coronation at Westminster Abbey.
The ceremony will take place on May 6 and the editor in chief of Majesty magazine and royal biographer Ingrid Seward claims Meghan may have snubbed the event to avoid her own embarrassment.
