The British monarchy is in turmoil once again—and this time, the flames are being fanned from within the walls of Buckingham Palace itself. A bombshell leak to The Daily Telegraph has set the royal world ablaze, revealing that Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and their two children—Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet—have been given central roles in King Charles’s funeral plans.

Yes, you read that correctly. The very woman who accused the King of racism and dragged the monarchy through the mud in a global television interview is reportedly being welcomed back into the royal fold at the most sacred moment of national mourning. And not just welcomed—centered.

The revelation, confirmed by Telegraph royal correspondent Victoria Ward—who is known to have close ties to the Sussexes—has provoked fury among senior royal insiders, outraged monarchists, and members of the public. It has ignited a storm of commentary on programs like Outspoken, where presenters and royal experts didn’t hold back.

“Not just no—hell no,” thundered royal commentator Lee Cohen, echoing the sentiment of many loyal to the Crown. “Those vile creatures must be forever marginalized.”

The backlash has been swift, brutal, and deeply emotional.

Funerals: The Royal Family’s Failed Reconciliation Tool

It’s a pattern that’s become painfully familiar. A funeral becomes a stage for reconciliation. But instead of healing wounds, it often deepens them.

It didn’t work at Prince Philip’s funeral. It didn’t work at Queen Elizabeth II’s. And now, according to Outspoken, Prince William—soon to be King William—is done trying.

“William doesn’t want a moment of reconciliation,” declared the host. “In fact, he’s moved on. Harry is not even in his mind anymore.”

Insiders suggest that King Charles—still undergoing cancer treatment—is the one pushing for peace. But if his last public act is to force a broken family together one final time, the result could be a public and personal disaster.

“This isn’t just about family,” warned royal watcher Britney from Royal News Network. “This is about the institution’s credibility. Why are we centering a woman who publicly accused the monarch of racism?”

Inside the Leak: The Funeral Plans That Sparked Uproar

According to The Daily Telegraph, King Charles has already factored Harry, Meghan, Archie, and Lilibet into every major aspect of his state funeral.

Harry is expected to walk beside William at the forefront of the procession.

Meghan will participate in the family vigil at Westminster Hall.

Archie and Lilibet will be invited to attend both the funeral and the committal at St. George’s Chapel.

The Sussexes will be included in behind-the-scenes briefings and rehearsals.

To critics, it’s nothing short of a royal provocation.

“How can you invite people who leaked palace secrets, insulted the Queen’s legacy, and implied institutional racism into such a sacred moment?” one palace insider fumed.

“This will not bring closure. It will bring cameras, Netflix producers, and PR stunts.”

Megan’s “Perfect Mom” Image Under Fire

Commentators also questioned Meghan’s motivations for bringing her children to such an emotionally charged event.

“There’s no real relationship between Charles and his California-based grandchildren,” said Outspoken’s host. “And that’s Harry and Meghan’s fault.”

Royal commentators suggested that Meghan’s obsession with image may be driving the decision—not family unity.

“She won’t show the kids because she’s terrified of losing control,” Britney speculated. “She wants to appear as the perfect mother, but any normal parenting moment might crack that façade.”

The Trust Was Broken—And Remains Broken

The Telegraph article goes on to suggest that the Sussexes felt ostracized after Queen Elizabeth’s funeral. But critics slammed that framing.

“There was no trust!” the Outspoken host shouted. “They were leaking to the American media. They betrayed the family’s confidence.”

“Harry doesn’t get to write a tell-all book, drop a Netflix documentary, accuse his family of cruelty, and then act like he’s surprised they don’t want him involved.”

And yet—King Charles, even from his weakened position, appears desperate to include them.

“He’s clinging to this fantasy of unity,” said Britney. “But reconciliation isn’t an inheritance. You can’t force it in your will.”

“Unless It Comes With Cartier and Cash…”

The most brutal line of the night came from Britney, who didn’t hold back in her assessment of Meghan’s motives.

“The only thing she’s ever wanted from Charles is his money. If there’s no check, no Cartier, she’s not interested.”

Such statements, though cutting, reflect a growing sentiment among royal watchers: that the Sussexes are no longer trusted as family, but feared as opportunists.

William’s Final Betrayal?

If Charles’s final wish is reconciliation, it may come at William’s emotional expense. He will be expected to lead the nation in mourning while standing beside a brother who exposed the monarchy’s deepest wounds.

And that may be one wound too far to heal.

“Why try to force it when you’re dead if you couldn’t fix it while alive?” the host asked in frustration.

A Legacy of Division

King Charles’s funeral was meant to be a moment of solemn dignity, reflection, and unity.

Instead, it risks becoming the most controversial royal event of the modern era.

And if the Sussexes walk behind that coffin—flanked by cameras and controversy—it may not mark the end of an era, but the beginning of an entirely new war within the House of Windsor.
