Prince Harry blocked by Princess Anne’s feathers during coronation
Eagle-eyed royal watchers noticed that Prince Harry was obscured during his father’s coronation ceremony – recalling the moment Meghan Markle was similarly blocked during the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II last year.
Harry, 38, was seated in the third row at Westminster Abbey while his father, King Charles III, and stepmother, Queen Camilla, were crowned by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
When the cameras panned the royal family, however, the ginger-haired Duke of Sussex was blocked by feathers from the hat of his aunt, Princess Anne.
“First there was the candle…Now there is the feather,” one viewer joked, referring to the moment when Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle, was obscured by a cleverly-placed candle during the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II in September.
Another detail-oriented fan noted that Harry was also blocked by the bearskin cap of a member of a Royal Guard.
Both Harry and Meghan, 41, have been estranged from the royal family since they moved to California in 2020.
Their shocking Netflix docuseries, followed earlier this year by Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” is said to have only deepened the rift.
After weeks of speculation that the couple would miss the coronation altogether, it was announced last month that Harry would attend solo while Meghan stayed in Montecito with their children.
Harry is also skipping most of the festivities after the ceremony and is expected to board a flight back to the States within two hours of the conclusion of the formal service.
