Meghan Markle Trembles as Royal Family Debunks Claims: Lilibet Has Never Been to the UK

Meghan Markle disclosed that their daughter Lilibet, who was just six months old at the time, had not yet travelled to the United Kingdom during her and Harry's Oprah interview. Meghan bemoaned Lilibet's lack of interaction with the Queen and other royal family members. But according to recent sources, Lilibet might have already visited the UK. According to royal family-affiliated sources, Lilibet did, in fact, make a trip to the UK in June, just around the time of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations. During that trip, Lilibet turned one, but Meghan and Harry kept it quiet and didn't post any pictures online. They decided to keep it a secret because they didn't want to draw attention away from the Queen's historic achievement. Tensions within the family after their interview may possibly have contributed to their choice.

It's possible that because the Oprah interview was recorded before the June trip, Meghan neglected to bring up Lilibet's visit. It was technically accurate that Lilibet had not visited the UK at the time of the interview. But according to palace insiders, Meghan's wording might have inadvertently conveyed the false impression that Lilibet hadn't visited by the time the interview aired.

The story Meghan had previously told about the royal family not accepting her children is called into question by the disclosure of Lilibet's covert visit. It implies that Meghan and Harry had different expectations from what Meghan said in the interview and that they intended to have as much privacy as possible during their vacation. Additionally, there are rumours that Prince Harry spent valuable family time with Lilibet during his private meetings with Prince Charles and the Queen while he was in England for the Jubilee.

It's significant to remember that neither Harry nor Meghan have formally acknowledged Lilibet's purported visit or meeting with senior royals, nor have they offered any comments. Nonetheless, these stories have been confirmed by several royal family-affiliated sources.

The ongoing interactions between Harry, Meghan, and the royal family are further complicated by the possibility that Meghan's claim is refuted. Regarding whether they and their kids will spend Christmas in the UK, there is still speculation. It's unclear if they'll disclose any information or images of a possible Christmas trip to England, given their previous inclination to spend the holidays with Meghan's mother in California.

The time is noteworthy since the royal family usually gathers at Sandringham estate around Christmas. Harry and Meghan's decision to travel may be influenced by the fact that Christmas occurs on a Sunday this year.

Meghan's continued interaction with the royal family and the media takes on a new dimension with the possible refutation of her claim of Lilibet's travel to the UK. It will be interesting to see how these events play out over the next few weeks, regardless of whether they celebrate Christmas in England or not.
