Prince Harry and Meghan Markle 'struggling' behind scenes ahead of King's Coronation

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are reportedly struggling with the royal fallout as the King's Coronation fast approaches. The Duke of Sussex is preparing to attend the event - with Meghan set to stay in the US.

The couple's 'spiritual guru', Deepak Chopra, has revealed only Harry, 38, will head to the UK for the momentous ceremony, The Mirror reports. Meghan, 41, is set to remain stateside with the pair's two children, with eldest son Prince Archie's fourth birthday landing on the same day as the Coronation.

However, it has been claimed the pressure and drama surrounding their highly publicised media projects are beginning to take their toll on the couple.

Alternative medicine practitioner Deepaktold Daily Mail the Sussexes are "struggling" and added: "I hope they get through it light-hearted. I think there's too much drama around them - people should mind their own business."

Deepak added that it would be for the best if the pair did not address the fallout publicly as he feels doing so would bring further backlash from spectators.

"My advice is to ignore it because if you react you'll just aggravate the situation," he said. "If you ignore it, people can't say anything, then they'll stop."

All of this comes as couple’s biographer Omid Scobie confirmed Archie’s birthday “played a factor in the decision” that Meghan would stay in California

He said he fully expects it to be a "fairly quick trip to the UK" for Harry as a royal insider revealed they think the King will be "delighted" to have his youngest son in attendance.

The source said: "The King has previously spoken of loving both his sons and that remains the case.

"Harry would have deeply regretted not attending the ceremony.

"Archie’s birthday has provided the perfect excuse for Meghan to stay behind and, with all things considered, it’s probably the right thing to do."
