The situation escalated when Prince Harry revealed details from his forthcoming memoir, claiming that his father had explicitly instructed him not to bring Meghan to visit the ailing Queen on the day of her passing, citing inexplicable and disrespectful reasons.
This revelation has sent shockwaves throughout the Royal circles, deepening the apparent strain between Harry and his father. According to insider accounts, Harry reacted fiercely to Charles's alleged snub, forcefully defending his wife and demanding that she be treated with respect. This is just one of the many startling revelations unveiled in Harry's highly anticipated memoir, which has already begun making waves even before its official release.
The recent alterations made to the Royal Family's official website have further ignited speculation about the ongoing tension. Notably, biographies of the Sussexes have been moved down the homepage, placing them alongside other lesser-known members of the Royal Family, rather than prominently displayed as before. Additionally, Prince Harry's styling as "His Royal Highness" has quietly vanished from the site.
These modifications appear to reinforce the notion that the Royal Family is intentionally distancing itself from Harry and Meghan. Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams pointed out that these changes could be seen as a sign of skepticism towards the couple's stability and reliability, considering their past unpredictability and unorthodox decisions.
This recent development adds to the series of challenges Harry and Meghan have faced since stepping down as senior working members of the Royal Family. Despite retaining their titles, they are not allowed to use them. The couple's ability to build their independent brand outside the Royal context remains a topic of scrutiny, especially after they were recently dropped from a multi-million dollar Spotify deal and criticized by industry insiders.
Meghan Markle's official Royal biography had previously been stripped of her "HRH" title, but remnants of it lingered on certain sections of the Royal website. This latest edit emphasizes her role as a private individual and distances her from the formal Royal persona. As their journey outside the Royal framework continues, Harry and Meghan face the challenge of demonstrating their ability to thrive independently and solidify their presence beyond their Royal connections.
