New Delhi: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle fans were looking forward to a Met Gala appearance by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in 2023. However, this did not happen this time. While many are disappointed, there’s a reason Harry and Meghan didn’t attend the gala event. It should come as no surprise that Meghan and Harry didn’t attend the 2023 Met Gala. The upcoming coronation of Prince Harry’s father, King Charles, and preparations for his son Archie’s fourth birthday celebration in California may have kept him from attending the event.
Furthermore, given recent family conflicts and his desire to keep a low profile, according to Cosmopolitan, attending the high-profile Met Gala event right before his coronation would be a situation he would prefer to avoid.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s appearance at the Met Gala 2023 will mark their long-awaited debut. Maya Riaz, who spoke to The Mirror, laughed at the idea that the drama surrounding the couple would prevent them from receiving an invite to the Met Gala.
According to Riaz, the Met Gala is known for “epic drama,” and Harry and Meghan’s participation will only serve to increase the attention and scrutiny of the event. According to Riaz, Meghan and Harry may miss out on the opportunity to attend the Met Gala due to the upcoming coronation of King Charles III at Westminster Abbey in London, which is less than four days away. It is unknown whether the royal couple have declined the invitation to the Met Gala 2023, or if they have not attended the event.
Riaz explained that the timing of the two events could indicate that the couple would be in London to prepare for the historic occasion, which could be the underlying reason for their absence from the Met Gala. Riaz further added that the snub at the Met Gala would be directed towards the couple’s refusal and not the other way around.
