King Charles' Coronation to 'bring Royals together' after Harry and Meghan fall out, claims pal

Meghan Markle's former friend Lizzie Cundy believes the upcoming Coronation of King Charles III could prove to be the perfect time for the Sussexes and Windsor's to forget their feud.

Since Harry and Meghan announced in January 2020 they would be stepping down as senior working royals, the couple have not held back and dropped several royal bombshells.

Most famously, during an interview with Oprah Winfrey, the Duchess, 41, and Harry, 38, claimed a member of The Royal Family had made racist comments about their son, Archie.

Former military man Harry also claimed during a Netflix docu-series he was knocked to the ground by his older brother, Prince William, and accused his step-mother, Queen Camilla of leaking stories to the press.

But Meghan's former pal, Lizzie, 54, believes that despite years of feuds between the families, the Coronation could help them come together.

Speaking to The Mirror, model Lizzie said: "I think the Coronation is coming at the right time.

"It will inject new life and positive feeling to our new King as it will bring the nation together over such tough times such as coronavirus, the high cost of living crisis and all the terrible interviews that Harry and Meghan have done against the King and the Royal Family.

"I think the public need to be reminded how amazing our monarchy is, it's like no other in the world and how we must respect it and see how good it is for our own country and what hid it does like helping so many charities."

The star, who recently slammed writers for changing the text of some of the UK's most famous books, continued: "This is exactly what this country needs at the minute.

"Meghan and Harry don't stop and I think the public has had enough of them – it's time to celebrate our Royal Family, and I think the Coronation is coming just at the right time to boost morale and put to bed all the whingeing and moaning from Harry.

"Let's come together, unite as a country and make Britain great again!"

It comes after a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess confirmed that the couple had been asked to move out of their UK home, Frogmore Cottage.

Reports claimed that Harry and Meghan were being "evicted" by King Charles and would be forced to have their belongings shipped to California where they now live.

A spokesperson for the couple said: "We can confirm The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been requested to vacate their residence at Frogmore Cottage."
