Megan was not allowed to wear a uniform, except for the vigil where she had to remove the Queen's epaulettes. Additionally, the Sussexes were accompanied and supervised during their walkabout to prevent Megan from orchestrating photo opportunities.
While William and Kate were promptly appointed Prince and Princess of Wales, Harry and Megan were sent well wishes.
As the coronation plans were discussed, Harry's involvement dwindled. He only participated in one event, spending a mere 22 hours on it. Meanwhile, the documentary, book, and interviews on late-night shows continued to draw attention.
Frogmore was taken away, and the Sussexes had no residence in the UK. Harry was stripped of his position as a counselor of State, while Anne and Edward gained prominence. The future seemed uncertain for Harry and Andrew. Although accommodation was still an option, it had to be arranged through the king.
Access to royal properties was denied, and even the keys for Frogmore were retrieved. Harry had no access to Windsor at all. The royal family also refrained from acknowledging Lilibit's birthday or christening. There were discussions in Parliament about removing the Sussex titles, and Kate and the Queen collaborated on recollections, with a disclaimer that memories may vary. This waiting Queen, who was trained by the longest-serving Queen in history, is not to be underestimated. Megan should be very concerned.
Harry eventually realized that he had been shut out. However, it is unclear if he comprehends that this is a consequence of his own actions. He may perceive it as an escalation of the family's treatment towards him. While he recognizes his exclusion, he believes that he could be welcomed back if he were to separate from Megan. This belief fuels his narrative and passion.
However, if Harry thinks he can return to his previous position without Megan, he is delusional. It is true that his family would give him another chance if he were to part ways with her. But until he realizes that Megan has manipulated him and has not been good for him, he will continue to see his family's willingness to assist him as another offense against him.
Ironically, even when a lifeline is thrown his way, he perceives it as evidence that they are against him. One royal insider commented that they firmly believe Harry's invitation to any future events, whether related to the crown or the family, has come to an end. They hope that Charles has made it clear throughout the royal household that Harry and Megan are not to have any privileges or access to royal properties, grounds, boxes, or waiting rooms.
While some perceive Charles as weak, the insider argues that he knows exactly what needs to be done and what he can and cannot do concerning Harry's titles and line of succession. Currently, he lacks the authority, and neither does Parliament. However, behind the scenes, Charles and William, along with their top aides and likely certain members of Parliament, are working on finding a solution to the Sussex problem.
Recent actions taken by Charles suggest that he is done with Harry and Megan. Within 24 hours of the book's release, he took back Frogmore, demonstrating his determination. He then allowed them six months to move out, which made his reaction appear reasonable rather than impulsive or heated.
In recent events, Harry and Megan have been put in their place. They were denied access to balconies, there were no photos of their children, and no negotiations were entertained regarding seating arrangements.
The insider believes that intentionally placing Harry behind Anne, wearing the Red Feather, during a particular event was a clear message. It is uncertain if the candle incident at the funeral was intentional, but it may have inspired the decision to position Harry behind Anne's feathered cap.
It is evident that Harry and Megan will not receive any future invitations. The Trooping the Colour ceremony was the first test, and it proceeded with minimal fanfare. The insider expresses excitement for what lies ahead. They wonder who would risk their reputation and position to defend Harry and Megan and continue to challenge the British royal family. Will Oprah, Gail, and Tyler persist on this path despite the public's growing awareness of the Sussexes' flaws and their pathetic pursuit of fame and attention?
Is that the association they wi How long can they realistically continue to support those two individuals when the rest of the world is finally waking up to their true nature? Both Charles and Parliament have the authority to address titles, lines of succession, and other related matters. Charles, for instance, can remove princely titles, while Parliament can revoke dukedom titles. Adjusting the line of succession is a more intricate process as it requires the approval of the Commonwealth and other overseas realms. Charles has already made amendments, albeit expanding the eligible pool rather than removing his beloved son.
It's fascinating how some people pretend that Charles and Parliament lack power. While Charles may not take immediate action, it is important not to inaccurately claim that he cannot. Additionally, Harry will undoubtedly be invited to Charles's funeral. Although Charles currently lacks the authority to make significant changes, I firmly believe that he, along with William and their top aides, is working behind the scenes, likely in collaboration with certain members of Parliament, to find a solution to the Sussex problem. Charles likely has many plans for Harry and his wife. However, we must also be cautious about granting absolute authority to Parliament or the monarch to remove titles or princes without appropriate checks and balances.
The process of addressing these matters needs to be carefully crafted without loopholes, ensuring that power is granted specifically to the right individuals with defined limits. This is to prevent its misuse to the detriment of the monarchy in the future. It will take time and extensive discussions with stakeholders to reach a resolution.
One viewer expressed frustration with Buckingham Palace for repeatedly extending invitations to the Sussexes prior to the Queen's death and thereafter. They felt that the palace remained silent in response to the couple's problematic behavior, such as the Oprah interview and their reality show plans. The viewer was particularly disturbed when the Sussexes were invited to the coronation, seeing it as a validation of their actions against the king, monarchy, and Commonwealth.
However, the viewer now realizes that the palace was playing the long game. Not inviting them earlier would have portrayed the Sussexes as victims, being cut off by their own family. Instead, the royal family chose to extend invitations repeatedly, despite the relentless attacks from the Sussexes. This strategy made the royal family appear gracious, and it also allowed the public to see the Sussexes for who they truly are. Consequently, both Hollywood and the UK are moving on from them, and the royal family can never be accused of cold-shouldering the Sussexes.
