Meghan Markle’s recent moves have sparked new tensions amid reports of Prince Harry’s attempt to return to the UK.
The Duchess’ latest series of appearances has left observers surprised as she is attempting to play royal even after saying goodbye to the Firm in 2020 over her differences with core members and their alleged skewed treatment of her.
On the other hand, Harry’s recent interviews and statements reveal that he is very serious, even desperate, to return to the royal fold, leaving no stone unturned to bring his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, to the United Kingdom to experience royal luxuries and duties.
But some of Meghan’s actions are said to be causing problems in the reconciliation process.
According to a source, “The royals believe that the Duchess is unwilling to allow Prince Harry to reconcile with his family, and his recent actions have forced them to turn against him.”
They went on to state: “The Duchess’s moves appear to drive a wedge between Harry and his family.”
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, “I’m sure questions will be asked about Meghan announcing herself as the Duchess of Sussex. That is, of course, her title, but things get a little murky if she decides to use it for commercial activities.”
The recent moves will no doubt have raised eyebrows within the Firm, following the late Queen’s demand that the couple stop using their HRH titles, a request they have cleverly maneuvered using Harry’s ‘Prince’ title, his birthright and their titles as Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Jennie believes Meghan and Harry’s upcoming tour of Australia may have also caused some confusion behind the Palace walls.
Reacting to the Montecito couple’s official announcement, the expert said: “I suppose the King and his family might be wondering why Harry and Meghan have chosen to announce their visit to Australia with such flourish.”
The Duchess has already confirmed that she will be hosting a Q&A at a £1,700-a-ticket women’s retreat in Sydney, where she will also pose for photographs with guests.
Meanwhile, Meghan’s alleged copycat moves are also causing anger among the Welsh.
She is being accused of copying the royal manual to mock or compete with Princess Kate and supposedly force Harry to follow in her footsteps.
