Prince Harry Faces Cold Reception at St. Paul's Cathedral as Clergy Members Ignore Him. During the Invictus Games service at St. Paul's Cathedral, Prince Harry experienced a notable lack of attention from members of the clergy.
As he arrived at the event, Harry engaged in conversations with guests and clergy members, but in one photo from the gathering, it appears that the clergy completely disregarded his presence. No eye contact was made with Harry, as their attention seemed to be diverted by the sound of booing from the crowd.
Despite the apparent disregard from the clergy, Harry stood there with a smile on his face, seemingly unaware of the situation.
He even reached out his hand for a handshake, but it was left hanging in empty space as the clergy members conveniently kept their hands out of reach. Their expert door-watching skills demonstrated their deliberate avoidance of Harry.
Harry chuckled, possibly attempting to brush off the awkward encounter, and played along for the camera. However, the clergy did not reciprocate his effort, giving the impression that they were not interested in engaging with him.
It is worth noting that Harry has previously made accusations against their boss, King Charles, who is also the head of the Church of England. This might have contributed to a less-than-friendly atmosphere between Harry and the clergy.
It seems that Harry was oblivious to the tension in the room, pretending that everything was going well, despite the crumbling state of his personal life.
During the event, Harry adorned himself with various medals, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. However, noticeably missing from his lapel was the KCVO (Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order) medal paying homage to King Charles. In contrast, the rest of the royal family chose not to attend the service at St. Paul's Cathedral.
The absence of the coronation medal, awarded to mark his father's ascension to the throne, further highlights Harry's selective choice of which medals to wear. It comes amidst news that King Charles has a busy schedule, making it impossible for a father-son meeting to take place during Harry's visit to the UK.
Harry's spokesperson addressed the inquiries and speculation, stating that due to the King's full schedule and various commitments, it would not be possible for them to meet at this time. Harry expressed understanding and hopes to see his father soon.
