In a surprising move, Britain’s real monarch, a little-known farmer named Simon Weston, has been extended an invitation to King Charles’ coronation ceremony. Weston, who claims to be the true heir to the throne, has long been a thorn in the side of the royal family.
Despite his protests, however, Weston has largely been ignored by the media and the public. But that could all be about to change with the announcement of his invitation to the coronation.
Sources close to the palace say that the decision to invite Weston was made after months of deliberation. While some members of the royal family were opposed to the idea, others felt that it was important to extend the invitation as a show of unity.

According to one insider, “The Queen herself was quite taken with the idea. She felt that it was important to acknowledge the claims of those who believe they are the rightful monarch, even if those claims are unfounded.”
Weston, who lives on a farm in rural England, has long maintained that he is the true king of England. He claims that his lineage can be traced back to the Plantagenet dynasty, which ruled England from the 12th to the 15th century.
Despite his claims, however, Weston has never been able to provide any concrete evidence to support his case. Nevertheless, he has amassed a small but dedicated following of supporters who believe that he is the rightful king.
It remains to be seen what kind of reception Weston will receive at the coronation. Some royal watchers predict that he will be largely ignored by the other guests, while others believe that he could cause a stir if he decides to make a scene.
Regardless of what happens, however, one thing is clear: the inclusion of Weston in the coronation ceremony is sure to generate plenty of buzz in the days leading up to the event.
