(NewsNation) — One of the biggest events for the British royal family will be happening this weekend to mark the monarch’s birthday. But who will be in attendance this year?

Trooping the Colour takes place on June 14 each year, with musicians, horses and parading soldiers taking part in the celebration. Royal family members will also sometimes join in on the fun, riding horseback and being in horse-drawn carriages.

After the parade, senior royals will gather on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to watch the Red Arrows fly overhead. King Charles, Queen Camilla and his son, Prince William, should all be in attendance. However, with royals clashing and Prince Harry’s recent bid for security being denied, who can we expect to see at this year’s event?

What royals will be on Buckingham Palace balcony for Trooping the Colour?

There’s no doubt that King Charles, 76, and his wife, Queen Camilla, will be at the center of the balcony, waving to the crowd below. Express Newspapers reported that 42-year-old Prince William, along with Princess Kate, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, will also be on the balcony.

In 2024, after much speculation, Kate did end up attending the event despite her abdominal surgery and cancer diagnosis.

For someone who began her life in the spotlight as “Shy Di,” Princess Diana became an unlikely, revolutionary during her years in the House of Windsor. She helped modernize the monarchy by making it more personal, changing the way the royal family related to people. By interacting more intimately with the public — kneeling to the level of children, sitting on edge of a patient’s hospital bed, writing personal notes to her fans — she set an example that has been followed by other royals as the monarchy worked to become more human and remain relevant in the 21st century.

Charles’ brother, 61-year-old Prince Edward, should also be in attendance with his wife, Duchess Sophie. It is unclear if their children, Lady Louise and James, will be with them. Louise was with her parents in 2024, but James had skipped for his exams.

Princess Anne is set to be on the balcony with her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence. Other senior royals who should be in attendance include:

  • The Duke of Gloucester, Prince Richard

  • The Duchess of Gloucester, Birgitte

  • The Duke of Kent, Prince Edward

This is allegedly a smaller crowd than what Queen Elizabeth saw during her reign. When she had the throne, other royals who would be on the balcony included Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice, Zara Tindall and Peter Phillips.

Queen Elizabeth would invite the entire royal family to join her for the event, but that changed in 2022, according to The Mirror. The late queen had decided to only invite working members to the balcony, which excluded Harry and his wife, as well as Prince Andrew. The only exception made was for Princess Anne’s husband, Sir Tim, her two youngest grandchildren and her great-grandchildren.

King Charles kept those same rules in 2023 and 2024 and will likely keep that same pace this year, since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, along with their children, are not expected to attend.

Prince Harry ‘very lonely’ in Montecito: Friends

One insider recently told NewsNation’s Paula Froelich that Prince Harry “doesn’t really have any friends” in Montecito and is “very lonely.”

Sources told People magazine that Harry “has one foot in the past,” and his friends agreed. “He spent his entire life in England with family and friends. It’s harder to forge deep friendships with people when you’re older, especially if you’re wary they may speak to the press.”

King Charles and Prince William allegedly don’t speak to Harry for the same reason—that what they say will be repeated to a news outlet.

Duke and Duchess of Windsor became outcasts similar to Prince Harry

After Duke Edward abdicated, the royal family didn’t have much contact with his family. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor became outcasts among the elite, and Edward’s brother, King George, only saw him a few times in private after the abdication.

The difference between Harry and his wife and Edward and his wife is that the Duke and Duchess of Windsor remain mostly quiet. Harry and Markle do press appearances and Instagram drops, showing more of their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
