More news:

".....They will be joined by the Princess Royal, her husband Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke of Kent and Princess Alexandra.

Not really news.

We were already informed that there would be a carriage procession from the Abbey to Buckingham Palace and that only working royals would appear on the balcony.

Put those two facts together and voila! You know who would be riding in the carriages.

Of course, the media have to make it all about who isn't going to be riding in the carriages because they are so worried that those individuals will steal the limelight.

Will "The Edinburgh siblings" be on the balcony at any point do you think?

Nor for the Coronation. They're not working royals, and it's very unlikely Charles will be asking them to join The Firm.

If an exception was made for them, it would raise the issue of why others have been excluded.

I Meant the Balcony!

I was referring to the balcony. The people riding in the carriages will be the only people joining Charles and Camilla on the balcony.

If Charles includes his Edinburgh niece and nephew on the balcony, the omission of his other nieces and nephew, not to mention the omission of his brother, his younger son, that son's wife and children will be glaring and all the media will talk about.
