King Charles III’s coronation is set for May 6, and while we know many of Charles and his late mother‘s closest friends will be in attendance not everyone made the guest list.
Now Queen Elizabeth II‘s godson, who was snubbed from the event, just issued a seven-word reply about not getting an invite.

Viewers have seen the aristocratic Crawley family celebrate many a Christmas on the hit historical drama Downtown Abbey; now, fans are getting a behind-the-scenes glimpse of how the show’s real-life castle looks during the holiday season. On Friday’s (December 23) edition of the Today show, NBC News London Correspondent, Kelly Cobiella, was on location at Highclere Castle in Hampshire, England, where Julian Fellowes‘ period drama is filmed.

He lives in the beautiful 109-room Edwardian mansion Manderston in the Scottish borders. But don’t be jealous, as Lord Palmer freely admits that it has 100 rooms too many.
Next up was the Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, in his equally opulent home in the Palace of Westminster. His director...
