Harry and Meghan hit back at claims they snubbed Kings birthday invitation: Theres been no contact

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly been left out of King Charles III's 75th birthday celebrations on Nov 14. The intimate party, set to take place at Clarence House, is expected to include the King's closest friends and family, but it seems Harry and Meghan may not be on the guest list.

There's a bit of confusion about why the couple won't be attending. Initially, the Sunday Times reported Harry had been invited but chose not to go. However, other reports suggest they were never invited in the first place.

A spokesperson for Harry and Meghan told the Daily Mail: "There has been no contact regarding an invitation to His Majesty's upcoming birthday. It is disappointing the Sunday Times has misreported this story."

A source even told the publication that Harry and Meghan didn't know about the party until they read about it in the media. This is unusual as they would normally be included in the plans, despite their ongoing family feud.


The source shared: "In this case, they aren't and that's okay. I'm sure the Duke will find a way to reach out privately to wish His Majesty a happy birthday like he always done.

"The story in The Times as well as subsequent stories have been positioned in a way to make it look like the Duke is snubbing his father, which he is not."

It comes after a friend of Charles told the Times: "There is the sense of a cooling-off period from the family that is underway after the aftershocks of the book and the interviews.

“But that doesn’t change the King’s love for his son. He’ll never not invite his son to a family gathering, because that’s not who he is.”

Last month, Harry paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth II on the anniversary of her passing during a UK visit. Initially, it seemed the Prince wouldn't be allowed to visit, but a last-minute nod from Buckingham Palace made it possible.

Before jetting off to the Invictus Games, he took a side trip to St George's Chapel in Windsor. However, Harry did not get a chance to meet with his dad or brother, Prince William, while he was there.
