There is no peace all the way in the Windsor house, not even on the occasion of the day that will seal the last longevity record of Elizabeth II next month: her 70th anniversary on the throne.

The latest fibrillation was triggered by the announcement that neither Prince Andrew , the queen's third son, nor the rebellious nephews Harry and Meghan , will be among the royals who will look out from the Buckingham Palace balcony at the beginning of June to seal the key celebrations of the Jubilee . of Her Majesty's Platinum .

The decision was communicated by a palace source, who explained how "after careful consideration" the 96-year-old sovereign herself has established that at the special parade of 'trooping the color' 2022 they will be able to be at her side, to greet the subjects from high, only the members of the dynasty in official "labor" representation service on behalf of the crown.

An indication of the protocol behind which the result of excluding - for reasons of embarrassment or opportunity - three very specific figures is realized: Andrea, cut off from any office or public title following involvement in the suspects of the sex scandal linked to the figure the late American fixer Jeffrey Epstein ; as well as Harry and Meghan, who voluntarily evaded the status of senior members of the Royal Family in the wake of the traumatic tear of 2020 and the permanent move to the United States.

Yet a few days ago the Guardian wrote that the rebel dukes had been invited, a direct consequence of their trip - the first together since the tear - to Great Britain with a visit to the queen.

THE REACTION OF THE REBEL DUKS - Then there was the correction of course, to which the interested parties reacted avoiding any public controversy and making it known through a spokesperson that they will be celebrating, albeit without a view .

"Prince Harry and Meghan , Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are thrilled and honored to participate in the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations," the spokesperson said in writing, stating that the couple will also bring their two long-awaited children with them: Archie , 3 years old, who has been missing in the UK since moving to America almost two and a half years ago, and Lilibet Diana (known as Lili in the family), just 11 months old, who was born in California and that her great-grandmother Elizabeth, the grandfather Charles and the rest of the royal family have so far never met.

PARTIAL SEWING ONLY - A relaxing choice, an indication of a re-sewing in progress after the escape. But only partial, given that the parterre of June 2 will be reserved on the balcony for His Majesty , with the heir to the throne Charles, his wife Camilla and - to climb - the Dukes of Cambridge, William and Kate with their three children, next to them, as well as princes Anna and Edoardo, the queen's second and fourth child, with husband and wife.
