Since stepping back from their roles in the British monarchy in January 2020 and relocating to North America, the couple has made controversial claims about the royal family. These accusations range from allegations of discrimination aired during their interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021 to explosive revelations in Prince Harry's memoir, released in December 2022.
However, recent reports suggest that Harry and Meghan have decided to discontinue their campaign of criticism and focus on other ventures in the United States. British journalist Valentine Lowe, appearing on Good Morning Britain, revealed that individuals close to the couple have indicated they no longer plan to make further accusations against the royal family.
While occasional remarks may still be made, it is unlikely that there will be concerted efforts such as books, programs, or major interviews.
Recently, a royal historian disclosed that MI5 has documentation suggesting that Meghan Markle bullied palace staff, including gatekeepers at Buckingham Palace. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex allegedly brought a photographer into Buckingham Palace without the Queen's permission to capture photos for their Netflix show.
Although they were stopped by the guards, it is claimed that Meghan made forceful movements with her high heels, causing an incident. The aftermath reportedly resulted in a written complaint from royal aides.
Furthermore, it is alleged that Harry and Meghan did not seek the Queen's approval to film in the private quarters of her home. The Queen had previously prohibited the couple from bringing a photographer into Windsor Castle. Reports suggest that the Duchess of Sussex humiliated palace workers in meetings, displaying a confrontational and demanding demeanor.
According to a revealing book, tensions escalated when Jason Knauf, who worked in communications for both the Cambridges and the Sussexes, filed an official email in October 2018, detailing bullying allegations against Meghan—a claim that the Sussexes deny.
While Harry complained about the lack of support from Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Charles, Prince William, and Catherine, the royal author argues that it was not their responsibility to "coddle" Meghan. The author suggests that Meghan expected special treatment and viewed any lack of support as a failure to meet her needs, disregarding the protocols and traditions of the British royal family.
The author also questions whether Harry should have taken on the role of guiding Meghan, helping her understand the true nature of the royal family, and encouraging her to establish connections with other members such as Sophie and Lady Hussey. However, Meghan is said to have dismissed such support, considering it unnecessary coddling, while maintaining her belief that her own needs should take precedence over others'.
