But a palace insider did tell The Sun that negotiations are underway.

The publication reports that Harry and Meghan are demanding the inclusion of their children in the guest list for the service.

The couple also reportedly wants to join senior members of the royal family on the Buckingham Palace balcony after the service, a source tells OK!.

According to The Mirror, the Sussex kids’ attendance has “never been a bone of contention.”

As source told the publication that small children cannot attend a coronation “due to restlessness and tantrums.”

A Palace insider told OK! that the couples failure to officially accept their invitation until their demands are met could plunge the entire event into chaos.

“The Palace are trying to wrap up negotiations as quickly as possible because they can’t go right up to the wire. It could lead to chaos.”

“It could very well be that it ends in stalemate, and they won’t attend. But the Palace is doing everything in its power to not let that happen,” the source told the publication..
