PRINCE Harry has been relegated to the third row with his cousins at today’s Coronation ceremony.
The Duke of Sussex, 38, flew in yesterday leaving wife Meghan at home in California.
He will sit between Princess Eugenie’s husband Jack Brooksbank and Princess Alexandra — Queen Elizabeth’s cousin whose last royal working engagement was ten years ago.
Alongside will be Prince Andrew’s daughters Eugenie, 33, and sister Beatrice, 34, with hubby Edo Mapelli Mozzi.
The front row is reserved for senior working royals — William and Kate, Edward and Sophie and their children Lady Louise and James, Earl of Wessex, plus Princess Anne and her husband Tim Laurence.
An insider told The Sun: “There were discussions that the seating could be arranged on line of succession.
But that would have put fifth-in-line Harry front and centre — and with William and Kate.
“Instead the decision was working royals only at the front and work back from there. Harry will be a long way from his father.”
Yesterday Kate joked how she and William are “like swans” as they joined King Charles on a surprise walkabout.
As they met fans gathered near Buckingham Palace, the Princess of Wales said: “Yeah, we’re all good. Hopefully a bit like swans — relatively calm on the outside, but paddling on the inside.”
Cheery Kate, 41, said of her children George, nine, Charlotte, eight, and Louis, five: “They are really well, thank you. Excited, a bit nervous obviously with the big day ahead. They can’t wait.”
Asked how 74-year-old Charles was coping, she said: “Looking forward to it as well.”
She added: “It’s nice to be out here and saying hello to everyone who has obviously stayed out here for so long. And obviously will be staying out here overnight.
