A new bombshell report claims Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, is considering stepping down from her royal duties entirely.

As per a Palace insider who spoke to the National Enquirer, Kate still hasn’t made the decision but she keeps pushing back the date when she’ll return to public life because the pressure she faces from her royal life has taken a toll on her.

“Kate’s desperate struggle with the constant pressures of life in the royal fishbowl has clearly taken a terrible toll on her physical and mental health,” the senior palace source was reported to have said.

“She spent weeks staying out of the public eye after her operations — and it’s only strengthened her resolve to quit,” the source added.

This has allegedly rocked her marriage to Prince William and the monarchy.

According to the same source, William is “beside himself” about Kate’s potential departure.

“William is beside himself over her decision,” the source stated, as reported by Radar Online. “He can’t believe his wife would ever consider such a move.

“He made sure she understood what she was getting into when she married him, and she did an excellent job. He is afraid that she has grown emotionally unstable, but she argues that she is now seeing clearly!”

Another source said, “Kate’s disillusioned and frustrated by the ongoing drama surrounding her renegade brother-in-law, Prince Harry, and his wife, Meghan,” Radar Online shared. “But ironically, they’ve shown her there’s an alternative to being trapped in The Firm.”

The source added: “She knew when she married William her life would change forever, but never in her wildest dreams thought it would be this intense!

“Kate had a hard time when she first joined the family but after a few years assumed she’d gotten through the worst of it.”

The Palace being unusually quiet regarding Kate’s health condition sparked rumors over the severity of her condition.

What we know so far is that she won’t be returning back to her royal duties until Easter and that her schedule is completely cleared up.

Given the fact that her recuperation is taking months, and that her whereabouts are kept a secret, it doesn’t come as a surprise that many question how serious her procedure was.

Recently, TMZ shared the first photo of Kate after her surgery in January. She could be seen wearing classes while inside a car with her mother. Some speculated that the photo was staged, but other believed that if that was the case she would have posed outside of the car.

On Mother’s Day, Kate and William shared a photo of her with her children on their X account, but the photo was soon pulled by numerous news agencies amid suspicions that the it had been “manipulated.”

The Princess took to X to explained that she had self-edited the image before posting it online.

In another chapter of the ongoing saga between Meghan Markle and the British Royal Family, the Duchess of Sussex has vowed to expose what she claims are the institution’s “double standards.” This declaration comes amid renewed sympathy for Prince Andrew, who has faced his own set of controversies, while Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, feel abandoned and unfairly treated.

The Double Standards

Meghan Markle’s frustration with the Royal Family’s perceived double standards has reached a boiling point. She has voiced her dismay over how different members of the family are treated by both the institution and the public. While Prince Andrew, who has been embroiled in serious allegations, seems to be receiving sympathy and support, Meghan and Harry have often been portrayed negatively in the media and by royal insiders.

The Struggle for Fair Treatment

Since stepping back from their royal duties, Meghan and Harry have spoken openly about their struggles, including dealing with intense media scrutiny and a lack of support from the royal establishment. They have described their treatment as being akin to that of the Wicked Witch of the West—vilified and ostracized.

Prince Andrew’s Controversies

The contrasting treatment becomes even more pronounced when considering the controversies surrounding Prince Andrew. Despite facing severe allegations, Andrew has reportedly been met with a more forgiving and sympathetic attitude. This stark contrast has not gone unnoticed by Meghan, who sees it as a clear example of the unfair treatment she and Harry have endured.

Meghan’s Pledge to Speak Out

In light of these perceived injustices, Meghan has vowed to speak out and shed light on the Royal Family’s double standards. Her goal is to bring attention to the unequal treatment and to advocate for a more just and transparent approach within the institution.

Public Reaction

The public’s reaction to these revelations has been mixed. Some support Meghan’s stance and believe that exposing these double standards is necessary for change. Others, however, remain critical of her and Harry, viewing their actions as disruptive and self-serving.

The Bigger Picture

Meghan’s vow to expose the Royal Family’s double standards highlights the ongoing struggle between modern values and traditional institutions. As she continues to push for transparency and fairness, it will be interesting to see how the Royal Family and the public respond.

Conclusion

The narrative surrounding Meghan Markle and the British Royal Family is complex and multifaceted. As she continues to challenge the status quo and call out perceived injustices, Meghan’s journey remains a focal point of global interest. Whether her efforts will lead to meaningful change or further division is a question that only time will answer.

Grace Kelly and Meghan Markle were both born in the United States and married foreign royals.

Grace Kelly was born on November 12, 1929, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. According to Biography, her father was a three-time Olympic gold medalist for rowing, while her mother was the first coach of women’s athletic teams at the University of Pennsylvania.

Meghan Markle was born on August 4, 1981, in Los Angeles, California. Her mother, Doria Ragland, was a clinical therapist and yoga instructor, while her father, Thomas Markle, worked in television as a light and photography director.

Meghan Markle and Grace Kelly were both famous actresses before becoming royalty.

Before becoming one of the most famous royals in the world, Grace Kelly had a highly successful career as an actress. She acted in her first film, “Fourteen Hours,” when she was just 22 years old. She got her big break in 1952 with the release of “High Noon,” which launched her career to new heights.

She went on to star in “Mogambo” opposite Clark Gable and Ava Gardner, during which time she was romantically linked to Gable. For her role as Linda Nordley, she was nominated for her first Academy Award and won a Golden Globe Award for best supporting actress. She later won the Academy Award for best actress in 1954 for “The Country Girl,” beating out Judy Garland in “A Star is Born.”

In 2002, Markle landed her first official TV acting credit as Nurse Jill, a small role in “General Hospital.” However, she is best known for her role as Rachel Zane on “Suits.” She appeared in episodes from 2011 to 2018.

Princess Grace met her husband, Prince Rainier, on a photo shoot, while Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were set up on a blind date by a mutual friend.

According to Harper’s Bazaar, Grace Kelly was invited to join the United States Delegation Committee at the Cannes Film Festival in 1955. While in France for the festival, she met Prince Rainier III of Monaco on the set of a photo shoot. A year later, they were married.

In July 2016, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were set up on a blind date at Soho House in New York City by a mutual friend.

In their first sit-down interview as a couple, Markle told the BBC in 2017 that she didn’t know much about the prince or the royal family before the date.

“Because I’m from the States, you don’t grow up with the same understanding of the royal family,” she said. “I didn’t know much about him, so the only thing that I had asked [our mutual friend] when she said that she wanted to set us up, was, ‘Well, is he nice?’ Cause if he wasn’t kind, it just didn’t seem like it would make sense.”

Princess Grace and Meghan Markle both gave up their acting careers after getting engaged.

Grace Kelly briefly continued acting after it was announced she was engaged to Prince Rainier in order to fulfill her contract with MGM. In her final film, “High Society,” Kelly even wore one of the two opulent engagement rings given to her by Prince Rainier.

As Insider previously reported, according to The List, J. Randy Taraborrelli wrote in his book, “Once Upon a Time: Behind the Fairy Tale of Princess Grace and Prince Rainier,” that Kelly planned to continue her acting career after her wedding. However, the prince later said he and his wife had decided she would give it up.

“It was widely believed that it was Prince Rainier who made his wife stop acting, as Kelly had no plans of retiring at the time of their engagement,” The List said.

On November 29, 2017, immediately following the engagement announcement, it was officially confirmed that Markle would be exiting “Suits” after seven seasons.

“From all of us at USA Network and Universal Cable Productions, we want to send our most heartfelt congratulations to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry on their engagement,” USA Network said in a statement.

“Meghan has been a member of our family for seven years and it has been a joy to work with her. We want to thank her for her undeniable passion and dedication to ‘Suits,’ and we wish her the very best.”

Her storyline was wrapped up with her character, Rachel Zane, marrying Patrick J. Adams, who plays her love interest, Mike Ross, throughout the show’s seven seasons.

However, her decision to leave Hollywood was apparently not one made by the royal family — Prince Harry told Oprah Winfrey his family suggested Markle should continue acting to earn money.

However, Princess Grace had to relinquish a majority of her Hollywood fortune to pay her royal dowry, something not required of Meghan Markle.

Before meeting Prince Rainier, Kelly was on track to become one of the most financially successful actresses in the world. However, after she was asked to pay a $2 million dowry, the equivalent of roughly $20 million today, using her own money and family wealth, she essentially had nothing left.

When she died at the age of 52, Princess Grace only had a net worth of $10,000 and the deed to her grandfather’s small cottage in Ireland in her own name.

Princess Grace’s and Meghan Markle’s marriages were both depicted in the press as fairy tale love stories.

Both Grace Kelly’s and Meghan’s Markle’s engagement and wedding days received massive public attention. Both royal weddings were broadcast live to audiences around the world and described as “modern fairy tales.”

Kelly’s wedding to Rainier was the first royal wedding to ever be transmitted live.

Kelly maintained that she married for love.

“When I married Prince Rainier, I married the man and not what he represented or what he was. I fell in love with him without giving a thought to anything else,” Kelly once said.

Prince Harry, who was fifth in line to the throne when he married Meghan Markle, had no obligation to produce an heir to the British throne. Now sixth in line, it is extremely unlikely he or his children, Archie and Lilibet, will ever ascend to the throne.

Meghan Markle and Princess Grace both retained their US citizenship after marrying into royalty.

According to the Princess Grace Foundation, Grace Kelly was not required to renounce her American citizenship and became a dual citizen of the United States and Monaco after marrying Prince Rainier.

Meghan Markle also retained her American citizenship and even voted in the 2020 presidential election after she and Prince Harry moved to California.

While both Markle and Kelly experienced vastly different ways of life in London and Monaco, respectively, after becoming royalty, they both attempted to adjust to their new roles by immersing themselves in projects and causes they cared about.

“I never really liked Hollywood. I found it unreal — unreal and full of men and women whose lives were confused and full of pain,” Kelly once said.

Once a royal, she supported charities working for child welfare and established her own foundation to benefit local artists.

Meghan Markle appears to have had a harder time adjusting to her royal life and the expectations that came with it — in a March 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, she said she was naive when she entered the marriage. Last year, the California native, Prince Harry, and their son, Archie, all relocated to Santa Barbara after stepping back from the royal family.

However, she too has focused on causes she cares about, formerly serving as a patron of charities in the UK, and launching her nonprofit foundation Archewell with Prince Harry.

A royal expert has claimed that Prince Harry is ‘heartbroken’ at the fact his children Archie and Lilibet could grow up without knowing their relatives

Royal commentator Duncan Larcombe suggests that Prince Harry is “heartbroken” over his children’s potential detachment from the Royal Family, insinuating that whereas Meghan Markle has realised her aspirations, Prince Harry has fulfilled only some of his, detailed in Woman magazine. Notwithstanding his contented role as a “loving father and husband” Mr. Larcombe believes Harry has not gained much else.

The continuing debate over Harry’s security arrangements fuels conjecture about his possible return to the UK with kids Archie and Lilibet, given added impetus by the Sussexes’ reported purchase of a property in Portugal.

Mr. Larcombe stresses: “Meghan’s dreams have all come true, but what about Harry’s? He is now richer than he was, even more famous and surrounded by celebrity hangers-on rather than the group of trusted people who called friends.”

Mr. Larcombe stresses: “Meghan’s dreams have all come true, but what about Harry’s? He is now richer than he was, even more famous and surrounded by celebrity hangers-on rather than the group of trusted people who called friends.”

Additionally, he notes: “The major change for Harry is having two children in his life and being able to play the role of loving father and husband, something he has always wanted. Though aside from that dream achieved, there is arguably little else he has really gained.”

Ultimately Mr. Larcombe emphasises Harry’s poignant dilemma: “No matter how he might try to protest, Harry will be missing his family and friends back in Britain and will be heartbroken that his children are being brought up without knowing the relatives he left behind.”

Reports and comments throughout 2024 have been rife with speculation about Prince Harry’s yearning for the UK and his attempts to mend fences with the Royal Family.

In an interview with The Mirror, Royal biographer Tom Quinn weighed in on what he describes as the end of Harry’s “honeymoon period” in America, reports AberdeenLive.

Mr Quinn remarked: “As time goes by, Harry misses some aspects of his old life in the UK.”

He went on to add: “Inevitably, the honeymoon period where everything in the States is new and exciting is coming to an end and Harry is looking back at the past through rose-tinted spectacles. He misses his Old Etonian and army friends, many of whom have not visited as they don’t get on with Meghan.”

Furthermore, Quinn suggests Harry’s ongoing legal battle to have his security costs covered by the British taxpayer is part of a wider plan to establish a permanent residence in the UK.

This sentiment has been echoed among Royal experts, who speculate that the Sussexes’ property in Portugal might symbolically and physically bring Harry closer to his roots and family members like Princess Eugenie.

CambridgeLive has reported that Princess Eugenie is thrilled about the idea of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle moving closer. An insider revealed: “Eugenie is immensely fond of Harry and Meghan, as is Jack. They’ve always been incredibly close and it’s extremely heartening to them that a wider (peace for the Sussexes) with the royals is finally in sight.”

Representatives for Prince Harry have been contacted for a statement.

In a surprising turn of events, Prince William and Prince Harry have reportedly joined forces to expel Queen Camilla from the palace, fueled by newly surfaced evidence related to their mother, Princess Diana. This dramatic development has sent shockwaves through the royal family and raised questions about the stability of the monarchy.

The relationship between the brothers has often been a subject of intense public interest, especially in the wake of Harry’s departure from royal duties and his move to the United States. However, the emergence of this evidence seems to have rekindled a bond between William and Harry, united by their shared desire to protect their mother’s legacy. Sources close to the royals suggest that the evidence presented points to troubling interactions involving Camilla and the circumstances surrounding Diana’s life and untimely death.

As the details of this evidence began to circulate, it reignited old wounds for both princes. Diana, who was often portrayed as the “People’s Princess,” was beloved by the public but faced immense scrutiny and pressure from the royal institution. In the years following her tragic death in 1997, rumors and speculation about her relationship with Camilla have persisted, painting a picture of rivalry and betrayal that has never fully faded. Many believe that Camilla’s relationship with Charles played a significant role in the strain on Diana’s marriage, leading to a breakdown that was highly publicized and deeply painful for the royal family.

With the weight of this historical context, William and Harry’s decision to act against Camilla appears to be driven by a desire to honor their mother and rectify perceived injustices. Reports indicate that the brothers met privately to discuss their shared concerns, and they concluded that taking a stand against Camilla was necessary for their family and for Diana’s memory. This unprecedented alliance signifies a pivotal moment for the brothers, as they put aside past grievances in pursuit of a common cause.

The potential consequences of this alliance are far-reaching. For Camilla, being expelled from the palace would not only impact her role within the royal family but also affect her public image. Once regarded as a controversial figure, she has worked hard to establish herself as a respected member of the monarchy. However, this new alliance between William and Harry could threaten her position and lead to significant changes within the palace hierarchy.

The public reaction to these developments is likely to be mixed. Many royal watchers and fans of Diana may view William and Harry’s actions as a noble effort to protect their mother’s legacy, while others may criticize the brothers for their confrontational approach. The monarchy has long been a symbol of stability, and such internal conflicts could create a sense of uncertainty among the public, who often look to the royal family for unity and continuity.

Additionally, this incident raises broader questions about the future of the monarchy itself. As younger generations of royals grapple with their roles in a changing world, the handling of family disputes and the preservation of historical legacies become increasingly relevant. William and Harry’s actions may set a precedent for how personal and familial grievances are addressed within the royal context.

In conclusion, the reported alliance between Prince William and Prince Harry to kick Queen Camilla out of the palace amid evidence related to Princess Diana is a significant moment in royal history. This development not only highlights the enduring impact of Diana’s legacy but also underscores the complexities of family dynamics within the royal family. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how the monarchy will navigate this crisis and what it means for the future of the institution.

Meghan Markle issued a blunt 7-word reply to concerns raised by Prince William

Meghan Markle joined the Royal Family when she started dating Prince Harry, but the couple left four years ago and have since developed a very tense relationship

Meghan Markle didn’t hold back when she was confronted with “concerns” during her time in the Royal Family, according to a royal author.

The Duchess of Sussex joined The Firm when she started dating Prince Harry, but tensions quickly started to grow.

Meghan was accused of shouting at staff during her time in the Royal Family, with author Robert Lacey accusing her of “governing by fear” in his bombshell book Battle of the Brothers.

The author also claimed Prince William was worried Meghan was “stealing his beloved brother away” and was “very concerned” after learning how she allegedly treated her staff. In response, Meghan is said to have given a blunt seven-word reply.

For all the latest on news, politics, sports, and showbiz from the USA, go to The Mirror US.

“It’s not my job to coddle people,” Meghan said, according to Robert’s book. While Meghan was hit with bullying allegations during her time in the Royal Family, her close friends and family insisted they were false and didn’t align with the “kind” person they know.

A friend also told Bazaar Meghan was upset by the accusations. They said: “I hate to say it, but find me a woman of colour in a senior position who has not been accused of being too angry, too scary… in the work place.”

A spokesperson for Meghan also vehemently denied the allegations. They said at the time: “Let’s just call this what it is – a calculated smear campaign based on misleading and harmful misinformation. We are disappointed to see this defamatory portrayal of the Duchess of Sussex.”

The statement continued: “It’s no coincidence that distorted several-year-old accusations aimed at undermining the duchess are being briefed to the British media shortly before she and the duke are due to speak openly and honestly about their experience of recent years.”

Meghan and Harry stepped down from the Royal Family back in 2020 before moving to Montecito, California. They’ve since developed an incredibly tense relationship with The Firm and have made a number of bombshell accusations about various members of the Royal Family.

In their bombshell Netflix docuseries, Harry detailed the breakdown of his relationship with his brother Prince William and claimed he left him terrified after he screamed and shouted at him during the Sandringham summit. Harry also alleged members of Kensington Palace had then “lied to protect my brother”. He then further hit out at his family in his memoir, Spare.

In a surprising turn of events, renowned British actor Hugh Grant made headlines for his recent ITV interview, where he allegedly voiced sharp criticisms directed at Prince Harry. The conversation quickly went viral as Grant, known for his outspoken views on privacy and celebrity culture, delved into the issues he perceives with Harry’s handling of his public and private life.

During the interview, Grant reportedly expressed disappointment with what he called the “exploitation of personal struggles for public gain,” a statement many interpret as directed at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s series of high-profile media appearances. The actor, who has been a vocal critic of media intrusion into personal lives, argued that Harry’s decision to share private family matters publicly seemed contradictory. Grant, who has himself been the target of intense media scrutiny over his career, reportedly suggested that Harry’s approach might be “detracting from his original intentions of shedding light on mental health and familial rifts.”

The remarks come after Harry and Meghan’s series of interviews and a high-profile docuseries, which raised discussions about their relationship with the royal family and their struggles with the British press. Grant’s unexpected comments have added fuel to the already intense public debate surrounding the couple’s approach to balancing their quest for privacy with their openness in the media. His criticism sparked further reactions on social media, with some supporters of the couple calling Grant’s views “hypocritical” given his history with the tabloids, while others sided with him, appreciating his perspective on maintaining boundaries.

Grant’s explosive comments have certainly revived questions about the line between privacy and publicity for public figures, especially those connected to the royal family. Whether Harry will respond to Grant’s pointed remarks remains to be seen, but the public and media alike are watching closely for any new developments.

Recently, Prince Harry has returned to the United Kingdom to attend the highly anticipated announcement of King Charles III’s will, an event that has sparked various opinions and speculations among royal family followers. This return to British soil has been seen as a sign of possible reconciliation between Harry and his family, and it has also fueled rumors of a shocking agreement between the two brothers, William and Harry, which would have profound implications for the future configuration of the monarchy.

Since Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle decided to step back from their royal duties in 2020 and move to the United States, tensions with the royal family have been noticeable. However, it is said that following the reading of the will, an agreement has been revealed that promises significant changes in the roles and responsibilities of royal family members in the coming years. According to close sources, the clause states that Harry could return to his duties in the UK under certain specific conditions. This plan, reportedly proposed by King Charles himself, would be based on the possibility of William ascending to the throne in the near future. Should this happen, Harry would resume his place as an integral part of the royal family.

One of the most controversial and surprising aspects of this agreement is the alleged role of Camilla, the queen consort. Apparently, within the stipulations of the will, there is a provision that once William is crowned, Camilla would be excluded from high-profile royal affairs. Nevertheless, although this rumor has circulated widely, the royal family has yet to officially confirm these details.

Analysts believe this unexpected clause could be seen as an attempt to repair the relationship between the brothers, as well as to realign the public image of the British monarchy amid generational changes and social values. Some experts suggest that this move is a way to honor both the legacy of Princess Diana, mother of William and Harry, and the desire to maintain the continuity of the monarchy during a time of deep family divisions and public opinion.

While the formal announcement regarding the will has not yet been made, Harry’s return and the speculations about Camilla’s exclusion continue to generate intense debates in the UK and beyond. Harry’s potential reintegration could have a significant impact on the future of the institution and the public’s perception of the royal family, especially in the post-Charles III era.

This situation raises many questions about the role of royals in the modern world and, in particular, how the family will manage relationships among its members during a time of significant transitions.

Meghan Markle’s passport claims during her and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah Winfrey may not have been totally accurate.

Meghan Markle reportedly took at least 13 foreign holidays – despite telling US chat show veteran Oprah Winfrey that her passport was taken away when she became a member of the Royal Family.

The Firm was left red-faced and alarmed after the landmark televised interview between Prince Harry, Meghan and Oprah, in March 2021.

This came around a year after the couple relocated to California and stepped back from their roles as senior working royals.

Meghan claimed in the tell-all chat with Oprah that after joining the royals, her passport was taken from her and was not given back until she was leaving for the California.

She said during the interview: “You couldn’t just go. You couldn’t. I mean, you have to understand, as well, when I joined that family, that was the last time, until we came here, that I saw my passport, my driver’s licence, my keys.

“All that gets turned over. I didn’t see any of that anymore.”

According to The Sun, royal sources claimed her passport was kept secure to make sure it did not fall into the wrong hands. But, it would still have been used by her for her holidays.
