Kate made headlines in 2018 for her dress choice for the annual BAFTAs. The royal, who was seven months pregnant with Prince Louis at the time, was criticized for walking the red carpet in a deep green gown with a black sash after attendees were encouraged to wear all black in support of the Time’s Up movement.

Meghan Markle has been given advice by an expert who argues if she follows this, people might ‘decide that they have got her wrong’.

Meghan Markle has been warned by a PR and brand expert that she must do six major things after massive “own goal”.

Go Up’s Ed Coram James told The Mirror: “She attacked the Royal Family. And, broadly speaking, Brits love the Royal Family. Unfortunately for Meghan, there is a heavy degree of own-goal to this. Her PR campaign against the royals misfired so badly.”

“When you already have a negative image of someone, and you hear one person saying that that person is lovely, and another saying that she’s terrible, you’re naturally inclined to gravitate towards believing the person that says that they’re terrible.

“We love a good echo chamber, and we’re not too keen on taking on board new information and using that to help us challenge our deeply ingrained and conditioned beliefs.

“Again, her way to recover from this is the same way to redeem the reputation of her brand. Be quiet. Be patient. Be disciplined. Produce excellent work. Promote excellent charities. And no more attack pieces or PR misfires.

“If she does this, and for long enough, people will be able to start taking another look. And likely, in doing so, decide that they’ve got her wrong. Or, at the very least, that she deserves another chance.”

A new YouGov list has revealed the most popular members of the Royal Family according to the opinion of the British public.

A new list has revealed the most popular members of the Royal Family based on public opinion.

The YouGov poll has listed members of the Royal Family in order of popularity, with the most liked member of the Firm listed at the top of the list and the least liked at the bottom.

Although no longer alive, the late Queen Elizabeth has still been ranked as the most popular royal with a popularity score of 77 per cent. The Princess of Wales is then second on the list, with Kate scoring a huge 73 per cent.

Princess Anne follows in third place with a 70 per cent popularity score, followed by Prince William and then King Charles.

With 21 royals listed, it comes as no surprise that certain members of the family are close to the bottom of the list.

In last place with the lowest popularity is Prince Andrew, the Duke of York.

The disgraced prince, who was been plagued by scandal in recent years, had a very low 14 per cent popularity score, making him the most unpopular member of the Royal Family.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry also faced a low score, with Meghan placed 17th in the list with a popularity rating of just 23 per cent.

Her husband Prince Harry is higher on the list in 15th place, with a 27 per cent rating.

But a senior working royal appears to have been snubbed, as they appear much further down the list than their rank.

Although still in the top ten most popular royals, fans may be shocked to see Queen Camilla’s place on the YouGov list.

Despite the fact she has majorly stepped up when it comes to royal engagements this year during the King’s cancer journey, the Queen has been ranked ninth on the list with a popularity score of just 49 per cent, putting her below less senior members of the family including Zara Tindall, the King’s niece.

Prince Edward and his wife Sophie also appeared higher up in the list than Queen Camilla, with Edward scoring 52 per cent and Sophie coming in at 7th place with a 53 per cent popularity rating.

The list was made based on millions of responses from the British public.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, widely recognized as the Sussexes, signed a lucrative global content deal with Spotify in late 2020. This ag…

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, widely recognized as the Sussexes, signed a lucrative global content deal with Spotify in late 2020. This agreement was reportedly worth around $25 million.

 

At the time, Spotify was ecstatic to secure such high-profile names for exclusive podcast content. However, they were unaware of the turbulent financial situation the Sussexes were navigating.

 

The saga began last year when the couple left the UK, aiming to achieve financial independence in California. This seemed like a smart move at first, but the couple soon discovered that their cash flow was not as stable as they had anticipated after losing their royal roles and taxpayer funding.

Rumor has it that Meghan envisioned herself as the next Oprah, hoping to effortlessly produce best-selling books and hit Netflix shows. Yet, as we all know, success in Hollywood does not come without its challenges—especially during a global pandemic.

 

Projects began to fall through one by one as major studios hesitated to work with the controversial ex-royals. Their first animated series for Netflix, titled *Pearl*, was abruptly canceled when the production company withdrew from the project.

 

Whispers surfaced that their big Spotify podcast deal was underwhelming, with disappointing streaming numbers. Meanwhile, with substantial mortgages on their lavish $14 million mansion in Montecito, California, along with mounting staff and security expenses, the Sussexes’ bank balance was dwindling rapidly.

 

Then, in a shocking turn of events, sources revealed that Harry and Meghan were compelled to use their mansion for an equity loan to alleviate their growing debts.

 

In essence, they took out a significant loan against their property, effectively remortgaging their home for a staggering $25 million—an amount strikingly similar to their original Spotify deal. Their financial troubles had reached such a critical point that bankruptcy seemed imminent.

 

Under normal circumstances, this wouldn’t make headlines, but there was a significant catch: part of the exclusivity terms in their Spotify agreement mandated that Harry and Meghan remain financially solvent and refrain from incurring substantial debts.

 

 

It makes sense that Spotify wanted to collaborate with reliable partners rather than those teetering on the edge of financial ruin.

 

This revelation sent shockwaves through Spotify. Upon learning about the remortgage, the Spotify board convened emergency meetings, consulted legal teams, and entered crisis talks about potentially terminating their substantial contract with the now unstable Sussexes.

The last thing Spotify needed was to be associated with ex-royals facing bankruptcy and repossession orders, as it would tarnish their global image.

 

In a state of panic, Harry and Meghan attempted every strategy to convince Spotify to overlook the breach of contract.

 

They resorted to sending flowers, GIFs, pleading phone calls, and emotional appeals centered around their charitable endeavors. Unfortunately, the damage was already done.

 

Eventually, tensions eased when Spotify agreed to pay out the remaining contract early, but at half the original fee—an unfortunate outcome for the Sussexes.

 

In summary, the once financially independent Sussexes found themselves on the verge of bankruptcy and resorted to remortgaging their mansion, which violated the terms of their contract.

 

This blunder not only jeopardized their financial future but also positioned them as the laughingstock of the industry, all while they tried to present themselves as a polished philanthropic power couple.

 

 

Ultimately, this debacle became a costly lesson for Spotify, underscoring the importance of conducting thorough due diligence on a partner’s financial situation before entering into significant commitments—especially when those partners are as controversial as the Sussexes.

 

As for Harry and Meghan, they face a daunting rebuilding process following this disaster. Word has it that they are frantically trying to pitch a new reality TV show to regain their credibility.

 

However, after burning so many bridges in the industry, it remains uncertain who would be willing to collaborate with them at this point. They still have that $14 million mortgage to contend with as well.

A royal expert said Harry ‘changed’ since meeting his wife (Image: Juancho Torres/Anadolu via Getty Images)

A royal expert has said that Prince Harry changed after meeting  Meghan Markle, who he believes was the reason why he left the UK.

On The Sun’s first Royal Exclusive Live show, veteran photographer Arthur Edwards said that Meghan left Harry with no choice but to leave the Royal Family with her.

He said: “The first year with Meghan she was fantastic. I travelled everywhere with them.

“She was a star, engaging with the public, doing everything you’d expect a lady married into the royal family to do.

“Then suddenly, everything changed. Meghan said ‘we are going’ and that was it.

“And as we say, he made that decision and disappeared. That was his choice.”

Edwards, who has been a royal photographer for 45 years, said the decision was “fair” by the couple, however their actions since have shown a different side to the prince as the pair became “nasty” about the Royal Family to make money.

This was a completely different side to the duke, 40, which the royal photographer said he had not seen before.

Edwards said: “He was fun and he was surprising. And he used to say ‘I’ll do everything I can to make it good for you’, and that’s what shocked me when he just cut us all dead, that one time up in Manchester. I’ll never forget and I was shocked and it was just the day he met Meghan or the day he fell in love with Meghan, and it’s all changed since then.

“I feel sad about that because he was a fabulous person to work with.”

The insight comes after Prince Harry has just completed a string of solo engagements without Meghan Markle by his side, with some believing that this could be the start of something new for the duke.

He appeared by himself in the UK for the WellChild Awards 2024, with body language expert Judi James stating that he looked “delighted” to be back in a “princely” role.

Mixed Reactions to Harry and Meghan’s Netflix Series in the US and UK

At the British-themed Tea and Sympathy cafe in New York’s West Village, tourists from Texas discussed Harry and Meghan’s new Netflix series over high tea. For them, the Megxit saga felt like a modern fairytale.

The documentary reinforced the belief among many Americans that the couple faced rejection due to rigid traditions and a strict class and racial hierarchy. Despite the family drama, viewers argue that Harry and Meghan deserve to share their side of the story.

Interestingly, American sentiment toward the couple differs from that in Britain. Meghan is viewed favorably by 43% of Americans but only 28% of Britons. Prince Harry enjoys greater popularity in the US.

Skylar Baker-Jordan, an American commentator, attributes this divergence to contrasting class systems and social mobility. Meghan’s ambition is seen positively in the US but may be perceived as arrogance by the British.

“To the British, that would read as arrogance,” Baker-Jordan writes. “To Americans, it reads as ambition – and ambition is encouraged in this country. Meghan embodies the American dream, rising from a middle-class background to achieve success in TV and advocacy before marrying a prince.”

However, some Americans have grown weary of the couple. Caroline Russo, 52, initially sympathetic due to her admiration for Diana, now feels differently. “There’s a faux naivety with Meghan in the documentary,” she says. “If she truly wanted freedom, she would reject her titles and privileges.”

The transatlantic gap is also evident in reactions to Meghan’s account of her first curtsy at Buckingham Palace. Some Brits saw it as mockery, while American viewers saw a humbled woman navigating tradition.

Meghan Markle recently made headlines with a brief appearance at a charity event, but reactions to her presence were far from favorable. Critics noted that she spent only a mere 10 seconds with a couple of children before leaving, dressed in what many described as an inappropriate and “rather vulgar” outfit for the occasion.

Observers were quick to point out that her attendance was surprising, especially considering she wasn’t even invited and didn’t pay for a meal, which is typically required at such events.Angela, a commentator on the situation, remarked, “We knew it wouldn’t be long before Megan made a return to the red carpet. This was quite grim, especially since she didn’t even bother to stay for the charity event.”

 

She raised the question of whether Megan uses charity events, particularly those involving children, as a means to repair her damaged public image in the U.S.

“I think she’s been doing this for a long time,” Angela stated. “She can’t bear anyone being in the spotlight when she isn’t. With Harry, it’s the same situation; anyone who thinks she’ll let him shine is mistaken.”

Angela suggested that Megan’s pattern of behavior indicates a desperation to be the center of attention, adding that it’s appalling to leverage a children’s hospital for her own publicity.

Indeed, during her brief visit, Megan was seen interacting with the photographers more than the children, attempting to direct the head of the hospital and organizing the scene to her liking.

However, the photographers did not cooperate with her demands, leading to visible frustration on her part. “She acted as if she were the star of the event,” Angela noted, “but the reality is, she was merely there for her own gain, rather than to truly support the charity.”

A guest at the event remarked that Megan’s presence seemed solely aimed at securing media coverage. “It’s as if she needs to be seen and worshipped, regardless of who else is present,” Angela commented. She expressed disbelief that Megan would utilize such an event for personal gain, especially when the appropriateness of her attire was in question.

The discussion shifted to Megan’s motivations, questioning whether her desperate need for attention was a sign of deeper issues. Angela emphasized that while she possesses intelligence, her actions often come off as impulsive and misguided. “You’d think that at her age, she would have the wisdom to understand the optics of her choices,” Angela remarked. “Instead, she humiliates herself time and time again.”

The conversation then turned to the couple’s recent PR strategies, highlighting a shift in how they are portrayed in the media. “Harry and Megan used to claim they were like salt and pepper, but now it seems they’re taking different paths,”

Angela pointed out, referencing a recent report from *People* magazine that described a “twin track approach” to their public lives. While Harry is focused on philanthropic efforts, Megan is said to be leaning into entrepreneurial ventures.

Angela responded with skepticism, stating, “Have you ever heard such nonsense? She can’t stand to be overshadowed by Harry, and this new direction doesn’t seem genuine.”

As they delved into Megan’s entrepreneurial pursuits, Angela commented on the struggles she faces with her American Riviera project, noting that it has already faced significant setbacks. “She can’t even use the name of the area where she lives, and her trademark applications have been rejected,” she explained. “It’s clear she’s more interested in making money than in charity work.”

The discussion touched on Megan’s tendency to fabricate stories, especially regarding her relationships with old friends. Angela expressed disbelief at Megan’s claims that she was supporting the hospital because of her school friends, pointing out that many of those friends have reportedly been ghosted by her. “It shows how easily she lies and how little trust we should place in her words,” Angela emphasized.

Lastly, the conversation shifted to the dynamics within the couple’s staff, with the departure of another employee, Ashley Hansen, marking the 19th member to leave. Angela remarked on the high turnover rate and speculated that it reflects the challenging work environment created by Megan’s demands.

In contrast, Prince Harry’s recent travels and engagements were discussed. “He seems to be keeping busy, perhaps seeking some space,” Angela said. “But fitting eight charities into nine days across four countries doesn’t sound like a peaceful retreat.”

The two continued to unpack the implications of Megan’s actions and Harry’s endeavors, revealing a complex web of motivations and public perceptions surrounding the couple.

In times when many are struggling with health issues, compassion should be at the forefront. It’s something that both he and Meghan have often discussed, yet it appears they’re failing to show it in their actions. They should be demonstrating kindness, especially in their interactions with various charities they’ve been involved with before.

Those organizations likely welcomed his presence, but it was clear he was quite anxious at the outset. He fidgeted in his chair, looking awkward, and only became somewhat more at ease after warming up a bit. Overall, his behavior seemed rather unusual.

Angela, you raised an interesting point about Harry attempting to outshine the royal family. There was a memorable moment a few weeks ago when King Charles engaged with the New Zealand women’s rugby team. They spontaneously asked him for a group hug, creating a genuinely touching scene that went viral. Harry, on the other hand, appeared quite splendid during that moment—overwhelmed but clearly enjoying the love from the crowd. His connection to Australia and his enjoyment were evident.

Yet, there was a stark contrast when Harry sought a similar moment in South Africa. It felt somewhat staged. He was the one initiating the request for a hug, making it less authentic. Unlike Charles, who was embraced out of love, Harry’s approach came across as more calculated, almost like he was orchestrating a gathering at a party.

On a much more genuine note, the most touching royal moment of the week came from Catherine, Princess of Wales, and her interaction with 17-year-old cancer patient Liz Hatton. Katherine recently spoke about standing alongside those on their cancer journeys, expressing her solidarity. When she met Liz, who is battling an aggressive form of cancer, it was a truly special encounter. Liz has a passion for photography, which is also a talent of Catherine’s. This common ground fostered a warm atmosphere.

Liz described her experience as wonderful, emphasizing how down-to-earth William and Catherine were. There was a refreshing sense of humanity in their interaction. It’s clear that Liz radiates positivity despite her challenges. She has been featured on television and is receiving opportunities to showcase her photography skills, all while maintaining a hopeful outlook.

In one heartfelt interview, Liz and her mother shared their experiences meeting the Prince and Princess. Liz’s mother expressed immense pride in her daughter’s bravery, and the family is incredibly grateful for the opportunities provided by the royal couple.

It’s heartwarming to know that someone from the royal family checks in on Liz daily, demonstrating a genuine commitment to her well-being.

When comparing the approaches of Catherine and Meghan, it’s evident that Catherine’s interactions come from a place of sincerity.

The two had rich discussions about photography rather than focusing solely on Liz’s illness, highlighting the mutual passion they shared. Catherine’s thoughtful approach to fostering a connection clearly made the experience comfortable and uplifting for Liz.Thank you for watching Outspoken!

Taylor Swift’s police escort during her Eras Tour shows in London has led to a political scandal in Britain—as well as allegations of a “double standard” in connection with Prince Harry.

The Shake It Off singer was dragged into the major political storm engulfing the new Labour government after allegations that the home secretary pressured police to provide her with an escort from her hotel to Wembley Stadium. Lisa Nandy, the government’s culture secretary, denied the allegation on Sky News and cited the foiled terror plot in Vienna as grounds for the decision, which she said had been made independently by officers.

 

However, the saga has sparked comparisons with security for Prince Harry, whose round-the-clock protection team was removed after he quit his royal duties in 2020, despite his protestations that he, Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were at risk from terrorists and the far right.

Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, author of This Is Why I Resist and a prominent commentator in Britain on both the royals and British politics, told Newsweek: “I’d say there’s a double standard. There’s people trying to politicize the Metropolitan Police actions in giving Taylor Swift protection, but that was the right thing to do.

“Why would you let her go up and down without police protection, knowing fully well that there were the terror alerts? And the same can be said for Prince Harry. “The same grounds that exist for giving her protection are the same grounds that exist for giving Prince Harry protection, especially since his reasons are long-standing,” Mos-Shogbamimu said.

Harry and Meghan experienced a scare when a suspicious-looking white powder, sent alongside a racist note addressed to them, was intercepted on its way to Kensington Palace in February 2018. The powder was tested and found to be harmless. The prince sued the British government in an effort to overturn its decision to strip him of his police bodyguards and lost twice, although he is pursuing an appeal.

Among his arguments was that his and Meghan’s police bodyguards should have remained in place even after they quit their roles within the monarchy, based on the threat level. Harry has at times been given police protection in the past four years but only when going to and from royal events for which he had an invite from his family, Newsweek has previously been told. The decision regarding Swift comes after the Manchester bombing in 2017, in which 22 people were killed when Salman Abedi detonated a suicide bomb at an Ariana Grande concert.

The Labour government in Britain is currently facing multiple allegations that free gifts and hospitality were taken from donors who may have had a vested interest. Prime Minister Keir Starmer accepted Swift concert tickets for himself and his wife, Victoria, to a Wembley show, though he has since paid back the money. The Sun reported that Swift’s mother had threatened to cancel the shows unless a police team was provided and that Labour Home Secretary Yvette Cooper and Labour London Mayor Sadiq Khan stepped in to exert pressure on the Metropolitan Police.

The newspaper suggested the police were reluctant because of the high level of cost to taxpayers. The allegations—which have been denied—risk supporting Harry’s argument that members of the royal household may have interfered to stop him from getting security. “I do not have a problem with Taylor Swift having that police protection,” Mos-Shogbamimu said. “I think it is appropriate because of the terrorist alarm, which is what caused them to cancel the shows [in Austria this past August]. “We all know what happened with Ariane Grande in Manchester, so of course it makes absolute sense that there’s a police escort,” she continued. “Where she was able to get a police escort because she’s in the country, and because of the reports and death threats of terrorism and the like, the same should be afforded to Prince Harry, who faces the same if not more.

“The threats, the death threats—and I would call it domestic terrorism that he and his family face—is real, so it does make sense that he gets police protection,” Mos-Shogbamimu said. Nandy was asked about the controversy by Kay Burley on Sky News and replied: “It’s an operational matter for the police, not for the government.” She went on: “Don’t forget that when it comes to Taylor Swift, what had just happened was that a series of concerts have been canceled in Vienna because of the very serious security threat. I really utterly reject that there’s been any kind of wrongdoing or undue influence in this case.”

 

A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said in a statement: “The Met is operationally independent. Our decision-making is based on a thorough assessment of threat, risk and harm and the circumstances of each case. It is our longstanding position that we don’t comment on the specific details of protective security arrangements.”

Word on the street is that Harry’s been invited to spend Christmas at his mother’s childhood home, Althorp. Now wouldn’t that make for a Hallmark movie in the making? Except, plot twist—Meghan’s not exactly jumping for joy at the prospect.

Our sources say Harry’s all gung-ho about heading back to the UK for some festive cheer. Can you blame him? After years of being stuck in Montecito with nothing but avocado toast and Meghan’s constant scheming for company, a proper British Christmas probably sounds like heaven on Earth—roast turkey, crackers, and the Queen’s speech. Oh wait, scratch that last one. Rest in peace, your Majesty.But here’s where it gets juicy, my friends! Meghan, our self-proclaimed victim extraordinaire, is reportedly dragging her Louis Vuitton-clad feet. Now, why oh why would that be? Let me put on my detective hat and dive into this mystery.

First up, we’ve got the classic security concerns excuse. Oh please, give me a break! The woman couldn’t wait to parade herself around every red carpet and TV show, and suddenly she feels unsafe in the UK—the same UK where she lived, got married, and enjoyed all the perks of royalty. Something smells fishier than the Thames at low tide, and it ain’t the Christmas pudding!

But wait, there’s more! Let’s not forget about the real elephants in the room—or should I say the invisible elephants? That’s right, I’m talking about the ghost children of Montecito: Archie and Lilibet.

Now, I’m not saying they don’t exist, but has anyone actually seen these kids? I mean really seen them—not just conveniently timed blurry paparazzi shots or carefully curated Instagram posts. Think about it! If Meghan brings her children to the UK, the jig is up.

No more mysteries of unseen royal babies to dangle over Charles’s head like some sort of twisted inheritance blackmail. No more excuses for why they can’t attend family events or why they’re never seen in public. The whole house of cards could come tumbling down faster than you could say “genetic pain and suffering.”

And let’s not forget the biggest reason of all: Meghan’s victim narrative would crumble faster than a stale scone. Imagine the horror if Harry actually reconciles with his family! Where does that leave our favorite martyr? No more tearful Oprah interviews, no more telling her truth—whatever that means—and no more playing the race card every time someone dares to criticize her. The horror!

But here’s the kicker, dear viewers. Meghan’s reluctance to return to the UK isn’t about maintaining her carefully crafted image as the most persecuted woman in history. Oh no, it goes much deeper than that. It’s about control, pure and simple.

You see, our Duchess of Duplicity has spent years molding Harry into her perfect little puppet. She’s isolated him from his family, his friends, his entire support system.

She’s convinced him that she’s the only one who truly understands him and has his best interests at heart. And now, the thought of him potentially reconnecting with his family? That’s Meghan’s worst nightmare come to life.

Because let’s face it: if Harry spends time with his family without Meghan’s constant whispering in his ear, who knows what might happen? He might remember the good times, realize that his family isn’t the group of racist monsters Meghan’s painted them to be, and even want to repair those relationships.

And where would that leave Meghan? High and dry, that’s where. No more royal connection to exploit, no more victims to milk for all they’re worth. She’d be right back where she started: a failed actress with delusions of grandeur and a talent for manipulation.

But here’s the real tragedy, my friends. While Meghan plays her games and Harry dances to her tune, real people are getting hurt. William and Kate, who have done nothing but try to support Harry, even as he’s thrown them under the bus time and time again.

King Charles, who’s trying to navigate his new role while dealing with a son determined to tear down the very institution he’s meant to uphold.

And let’s not forget the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, who spent their final years watching their beloved grandson turn his back on everything they stood for.

Then there’s Harry himself—oh Harry! The once charming prince has been reduced to a shell of his former self. The man who used to light up a room with his smile and dedicated his life to serving others seems destined for greatness. Now, look at him—a puppet on Meghan’s string, trotted out for publicity stunts and tell-all books. His every move calculated for maximum drama and profit.It’s enough to break your heart, isn’t it? To see a family torn apart and a legacy tarnished all because one woman couldn’t handle not being the center of attention. But that’s the Meghan Markle effect for you, folks. She came, she saw, she conquered—and she left nothing but destruction in her wake.

 

So will the Sussexes make their grand return to the UK this Christmas? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure: if they do, you can bet your bottom dollar it’ll be on Meghan’s terms. Because in the twisted fairy tale that is the Sussex saga, there’s only room for one star, and her name sure as hell isn’t Cinderella.

Prince William Reportedly Bans Sussexes from Future Royal Events, Signaling a Growing Rift Within the Royal Family

The reports suggest that Prince William is taking on a more prominent role in shaping the future of the monarchy. This might be due to the likelihood of King Charles’ reign being shorter than that of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, with Prince William positioning himself as the next leader of the monarchy.

A primary reason behind the ban is said to be Prince William’s concerns about the Sussexes’ tell-all interviews and the potential for them to reveal more private information about the royal family. Prince Harry’s recent book, “Spare,” is seen as a source of tension, and William is likely worried about other sensitive details the Sussexes might disclose if they were reintegrated into royal events.

This reported decision contrasts with King Charles’ apparent openness towards reconciliation with the Sussexes. There are reports that the King sympathizes with Meghan Markle’s claims of mistreatment within the royal family and that he wishes to spend more time with his grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet.

In summary, the reported ban on the Sussexes from future royal events indicates a deeper rift within the royal family. Concerned about the monarchy’s privacy and reputation, Prince William appears to be taking a firmer stance against the Sussexes, while King Charles seems to lean towards reconciliation. It remains to be seen how this situation will develop in the future.

Reports are circulating that Prince William has banned Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, from attending future royal events. This news emerges amid a publicly acknowledged rift between the Sussexes and the royal family, highlighting an increasing division between Prince William and his father, King Charles.
