"AFTER EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE FOR HARRY, THE QUEEN IS MONUMENTALLY DISAPPOINTED"
The royal family is meeting today to determine their new role in the monarchy. But fixing the relationship between Elizabeth II and Prince Harry seems more complicated.
The British royal family is meeting today in Sandringham to discuss, face to face, the new situation of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. After making public her decision to be "financially independent" and leave the royal family, Queen Elizabeth II has summoned Prince Charles and Prince William, as well as the Dukes of Sussex - Meghan will have to do it remotely, since she is in Canada – to find a solution.
However, what also seems to need a solution is the current relationship between Harry and the rest of the members of the British monarchy, especially the queen. According to palace sources, the situation is very tense, but Elizabeth II will do what is necessary to avoid damaging the name of the British Crown, which is at a delicate moment after the forced departure of Prince Andrew, due to his involvement in the Jeffrey scandal. Epstein.
According to sources close to Elizabeth II have told Vanity Fair USA, this has been a severe blow to the queen: “After all that she has done for Harry, (the queen) is monumentally disappointed. All she has done is accommodate him and Meghan from the start. The family is very upset about how the Sussexes have behaved, especially because of the impact it has had on the Queen, who has a very fragile husband, the whole problem of Prince Andrew with whom to deal and now Harry, who is behaving like a rebellious teenager. He has dropped a bomb and left the Queen picking up the pieces. He has not been good for their relationship. What was once a very warm and fun relationship, between grandmother and grandson, has dissipated. "
In addition, they indicate that the tensions between the two are not recent, but date back to the preparations for the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Back then, discussions broke out about what tiara Meghan would wear, and the couple turned down the queen's staff by hiring her own florist and cake bakers.
Since that time, there has been a series of rudeness by the Sussexes that have damaged their relationship with the monarch: Archie's christening, which Elizabeth II would not have been able to attend because the dukes did not give sufficient advance notice, the fact that who did not attend Balmoral this summer or their absence this Christmas at Sandringham, among others. Hence, the queen did not have the couple present in her Christmas speech, which did not appear in any of the photographs of her on her desk. Yes there were, on the contrary, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Charles and Camilla, King George VI and the Duke of Edinburgh.
While waiting to find out what will happen at today's meeting, the queen remains hopeful that Harry does not stray completely from royalty: "Maybe it's something generational, or the way she was raised, but duty is. everything for the Queen and for her this is the most disturbing part of all ", and adds:" After all, she is 93 years old and this has been a real shock for her.
