King Charles III makes his official ascent to the throne, but the afterparty is shaping up to be anything but epic.According to reports, a long list of British A-listers, ranging from Elton John and Ed Sheeran to Harry Styles and Adele — even the Spice Girls — have declined invitations to perform at the big bash.And while John and Styles are said to have declined due to scheduling conflicts, as the Sun reported on Feb. 25, experts say it’s no wonder so many others have given firm no’s to The Firm.

The Sun, John was at the top of Charles’ list, but due to his European tour schedule, which sees him performing in Germany the Friday before the coronation and again soon after the event, he won’t be able to make it.Harry Styles is also busy touring and unable to get key band members together, as they’ll be on a break from his tour.The Spice Girls were previously rumored to be reuniting for the coronation, but it looks like that won’t be happening either, according to The Daily Mail. This news is surely disappointing to fans of the group, which has been largely on hiatus for years.Similarly, Marie Claire reports that Adele and Ed Sheeran have declined the invitation, though Adele’s camp apparently didn’t provide a reason.Despite the setbacks, some musicians have agreed to perform at the coronation.
