The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed they have received their invitations to the Coronation
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's children Archie and Lilibet are not invited to the King's Coronation.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed they have received their invitations to the historic ceremony in May but their children will not be joining them if they choose to attend.
Meghan and Harry have not confirmed whether they will attend the Coronation or not.
However, the Sussexes are facing a heartbreaking choice between attending the event at Westminster Abbey or being with their son Archie on his fourth birthday.
Archie will turn four on May 6th, the first day of King Charles's Coronation.
A possible solution for the Sussexes could be to bring Archie and Lilibet to the UK with them before attending the ceremony without their children.

However, the Sussexes' UK security concerns may mean the couple feel that is not an option.
The Telegraph reported that Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet have not currently been invited to the Coronation, despite the children receiving their royal titles last week.
Last week, Prince Harry opened up on the effect that raising his two children Archie Harrison and Lilibet Diana has had on him during a summit in California.
"Kids ground you," said Prince Harry. "The longer you've been around, the more filters you have in life."
It comes as the Royal Family officially updated Archie and Lilibet's titles in a major boost to Meghan and Harry.
Under the section of Succession on the website, Harry and Meghan's children are called Prince Archie of Sussex and Princess Lilibet of Sussex.
Prince Harry is fifth in line to the throne whilst his children are sixth and seventh in the line of succession.
Buckingham Palace confirmed on Wednesday that the children would be able to use the titles of prince and princess.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry released a statement addressing their children's new titles.

Last week, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry released a statement addressing their children's new titles.
The Sussexes said: "The children's titles have been a birthright since their grandfather became Monarch.
"This matter has been settled for some time in alignment with Buckingham Palace."
Archie and Lilibet's titles as princess and prince will be used in formal settings but not every day.
