Meghan Markle’s temper tantrum was the beginning of the end for ‘upset’ Princess Kate
Meghan Markle reportedly left the Princess of Wales “horrified” over an incident involving a member of her staff.
Princess Kate has class and Meghan Markle doesn’t says Burrell
Meghan Markle left the Princess of Wales feeling “very upset” after criticising one of her members of staff at Kensington Palace, it has been claimed.
The incident, which was likely the ‘start of the end’ of their relationship, involved Meghan bursting into a “foot-stamping” rant, according to royal author Tom Quinn.
Claiming that he has spoken to staff members at Kensington Palace, Mr Quinn told the Daily Star that Meghan felt that she was not being treated as equal to Kate.
The author told the publication: “Meghan and Harry were living in what’s called Nottingham Cottage and it’s probably the only bit that you genuinely really could say, is actually quite small.
“And so I think that reminded Meghan that she was, as it were, second place or as the runner-up.”

Speaking of the incident, he added: “So when Harry and Will got together and sometimes Meghan and Kate as well, because there was this tension occasionally, famously Meghan slightly lost her temper with a member of Kate’s staff in front of Kate.
“And it was that incident, that I was told by someone who was actually there, who said it was really uncomfortable because Meghan just lost it with this person.
“…It was almost as if in that one encounter, it encapsulated for Meghan the problem that she had, that she’s a Princess and she’s number two.”
He added: “She was very successful, coming into this alien environment where people behave towards you according to where you are in the status of who becomes King or Queen next, that’s just alien to her. The way it was described to me was, there were raised voices and foot-stamping.”

Discussing Kate’s reaction, he added: “Meghan asked this person, I know who it was but I can’t say because it will give away my source, who works for Kate who was basically asked to do something by Meghan and said, ‘I’m really sorry I can’t do that because I work for Kate’.
“And Meghan really felt she had been slightly put in her place, because if you become a Princess you kind of assume that staff, when you ask them to do something, they are going to do it.
“She (Kate) was horrified, she was really upset because she’s very fond of this particular member of staff and she thought that Meghan almost bowling out this person was just completely unacceptable.”
Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to embark on a new tour to Colombia – but sources close to the pair have revealed what lies behind the plan
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s new Colombia tour could be the ‘ultimate revenge’ to the royals (Image: PA)
Just four years ago, Harry and Meghan made the shocking announcement that they were stepping away from their royal duties in the UK to start a new life in America.
The couple expressed their desire for “privacy” and “space” to raise their son Archie, but their departure has been marred by a highly publicised feud with the Royal Family.
In a surprising turn of events, the couple recently stepped back into the spotlight to announce plans for a tour of Colombia later this year – a move that has certainly raised eyebrows among royal insiders.
This will mark the couple’s second tour as non-working royals, following their successful three-day visit to Nigeria in May, which was inspired by Meghan’s discovery of her own Nigerian roots.
However, there are concerns that these types of trips do not serve Britain’s interests and could potentially undermine the work of the actual Royal Family. There are also fears that it could exacerbate their ongoing feud with the Firm.
While the full details of their tour remain confidential as they spend quality time with their children, Archie, five, and Lilibet, three, it has been confirmed that Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex will visit Bogota and coastal regions of Colombia, following an official invitation from the country’s vice president and minister for equality and equity, Francia Marquez.

The trip will be Meghan’s chance to prove that the Royal Family ‘misses her’ (Image: CBS)
Meghan has expressed her desire for them to “experience the rich heritage” of Colombia and to “further illuminate Colombia’s role as a beacon of culture and innovation,” according to OK!.
However, concerns have been raised about the safety of their trip due to the country’s high crime rates, terrorism, civil unrest, and kidnapping. The UK Foreign Office advises against travel to certain parts of Colombia, while the US encourages people to reconsider their travel plans.
Despite these concerns, it is understood that Harry, 39, and Meghan, 43, will be provided with full security protection during their stay. This decision seems peculiar, especially considering Harry’s reluctance to bring Meghan back to the UK due to security issues.
Despite the negative press following the announcement, a source has spoken about the Sussexes’ excitement for the trip. They claim that for Meghan, this is part of a larger plan to change the negative perception of her.
If the tour is successful, it could prove to be the ‘ultimate revenge’ against the Royal Family (Image: PA)
It provides her with an opportunity to shine on a public platform, doing the work she loves. “Meghan sees this Columbia tour as her chance to prove to the world what a big star she is and how much the Royal Family misses her,” the source said.
“She knows how much she can turn it on and doing events like this was the one thing about royal life that appealed to her. She was furious when that was taken away because she knows she’s such an asset.”
“She feels her and Harry together really shine when meeting dignitaries and locals, and it helps with the brand and their plan to be the alternative Royal Family. Meghan knows that nobody in the Royal Family can put on a show like her and Harry,” the insider revealed.
“When they left, they asked that they could still represent the family on tours but were told no, so she feels it’s the ultimate revenge as they were both so upset when they were rejected,” the insider believes.

Life in the spotlight is where Meghan typically excels thanks to her acting background (Image: PA)
Amid recent tribulations for the royals, including the loss of prominent figures King Charles and the Princess of Wales due to cancer treatments, the Sussexes appear to have stepped into the breach, with their tour poised to grab headlines once more.
The buzz could intensify if the Sussexes opt to bring their children along, which is a strong possibility.
The Duke and Duchess are set to embark on a significant tour of Colombia, with their agenda including discussions with “leaders, youth, and women”, alongside participating in discussions regarding “cyberbullying, online exploitation and the mental health impacts of these threats,” issues that The Archewell Foundation, spearheaded by the couple, passionately addresses.
Their Royal Highnesses’ Colombian itinerary is just one aspect of their whirlwind schedule. Meghan, in particular, is on the cusp of unveiling her dream enterprise, American Riviera Orchard a brand offering various home and lifestyle products which dovetails with a Netflix documentary speculated to complement the brand’s initiation.
Meghan is keen to end the year with ‘positivity’ claims one insider (Image: CBS)
Adding to their flurry of activities, Meghan and Harry made a notable return to television on CBS for their first joint interview in over three years, seizing the moment to announce The Parents Network. This initiative is designed to aid parents in combating the negative consequences of social media upon children.
In a heart-to-heart conversation with Jane Pauley, Meghan revealed her deeply personal challenges with mental health, confessing, “I think when you’ve been through any level of pain or trauma,” and admitting, “I believe part of our healing journey, certainly part of mine, is being able to be really open about it.”
She reflected further, stating: “And I haven’t really scraped the surface on my experience but I do think that I would never want someone else to feel that way.”
Following a challenging period since stepping down from Royal duties, facing tribulations in establishing themselves stateside and combating an onslaught of adverse media scrutiny, Meghan is keen to turn the page. This tour presents an opportunity for her to conclude the year with positivity.
“At the moment, the Royal Family is lacking representatives and she knows they’ll all be watching on to see how they handle it and what reception they get. Meghan wants to be seen as so much more than a Hollywood celebrity – and feels doing tours elevates her,” believes the insider.
Prince William was once forced to shave his beard as he was accused of breaking royal rule
Royal fans may have been swooning over Prince William’s new stubble but he was forced to shave his facial hair many years back, due to royal protocol, according to Prince Harry.

Prince William may have caused a royal fan frenzy with his latest stubble but according to his brother, Prince Harry, the two siblings once had a fiery spat over facial hair, as the heir to the throne was not allowed to keep his due to royal protocol, but his younger brother could.
The Prince of Wales sported a new beard as he joined his wife, Princess Kate, in a sweet new video where they congratulated Team GB as the Olympic Games in Paris came to a close.
William was dressed casually in a polo shirt with Team GB’s logo on it and royal fans could not contain their excitement.
But many years back, he was forced to shave his facial hair due royal protocol, according to the Duke of Sussex.
Harry wrote in his memoir, Spare, that he and William allegedly got into an argument over protocol which left the heir to the throne “livid” just before the royal wedding in 2018.

The Duke claimed that William was furious for more than a week after he was allowed a perk William couldn’t have – a beard.
Harry wrote: “A beard was thought by some to be a clear violation of protocol and long-standing norms, especially since I was getting married in my Army uniform. Beards were forbidden in the British Army.”
The Duke claimed he told the late Queen Elizabeth of how the beard made him feel calmer, to which she replied: “‘Yes’, she said, ‘you may keep your beard’.
“But then I explained it to my brother and he… bristled? Not the done thing, he said. Military rules, and so forth.”
Harry also wrote in his book that William didn’t let go of the argument for over a week before asking him to shave it off before the big day, with the duke asking why on earth it mattered.
Prince Andrew spends most of his time at his 30-room home in Royal Lodge in Windsor for fear of one thing, it is claimed.

Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, has reportedly been confining himself within his 30-room Royal Lodge residence in Windsor, primarily to avoid the prying eyes of photographers, it has been claimed.
This retreat into relative seclusion comes as the prince continues to face intense public scrutiny following his alleged connections to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. He has vehemently and repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
Editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine Ingrid Seward told Fabulous Magazine: “The Duke of York is quite limited as to where he can go, because he obviously doesn’t want to be photographed and then subsequently criticized. So his world is very narrow.”
She also added that his two daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie consequently bring their families over to see the Duke of York at his home.
She said: “He does see a lot of his grandchildren and enjoys spending time with them. I think because they know that he’s kind of stuck at Royal Lodge, they will go out of their way to go and see him rather than him coming to see them.”

The Duke of York announced he would step back from royal duties in 2019 due to his alleged connections with Jeffrey Epstein and following a Newsnight interview where he was quizzed by broadcaster Emily Maitlis. In the interview, his attempt to address allegations regarding his association with Epstein backfired, leading to widespread criticism and his subsequent withdrawal from royal duties.
Prince Andrew & the Epstein Scandal’ was aired on Newsnight on the BBC in November 2019, and also questioned the Prince’s relationship with Virginia Roberts Giuffre who alleged he sexually assaulted her.
The Duke consistently and vehemently denies the allegations. He reached an out-of-court settlement with Virginia, who had brought a civil case against the Prince for sexual assault. The settlement was not an admission of guilt and Andrew accepted no liability.
He remains living in Royal Lodge, his 30-room property in 98 acres of grounds on the Windsor estate, which he has lived in for over 20 years after signing a 75-year lease.
When he is not at his property, which he shares with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, Andrew spends a lot of his time horse riding in a remote part of Windsor Great Park, where he can avoid crowds.
Real reason King Charles was ‘terrified’ of Prince Harry before row
A royal expert has claimed Prince Harry disliked the idea that his father often turned to his “stable” brother who was less “volatile” when the princes were growing up.

Prince Harry believes his brother, Prince William, has always been seen as the far more reliable prince by his father, according to a royal author.
Author of ‘Scandals of the Royal Palaces: An Intimate Memoir of Royals Behaving Badly’, Tom Quinn, said since Harry was a teenager he always thought King Charles “preferred” William who was less “volatile”.
He told the Mirror: “Harry’s real beef is that he is convinced Charles always preferred William anyway and not just because William is the heir. Harry’s difficulties when he was a teenager and his increasing volatility as an adult terrified Charles who turned to the far more stable, risk-free William.”
The expert added Charles saw William as a “safe pair of hands”. He added: “Charles increasingly saw William as a safe pair of hands and Harry as too emotionally unstable. Deep down Harry knows this and he deeply resents it.”
The distance has grown between Harry and King Charles and Prince William following the Duke stepping down as a working royal in 2020 alongside Meghan Markle, and conducting a series of high-profile interviews detailing his private life within the Royal Family.
Hopes were raised that the royals were starting to fix their relationship after Harry rushed back to the UK after it was announced that Charles had been diagnosed with cancer. However, when Harry returned to the UK for a 10th anniversary service for the Invictus Games at St Paul’s Cathedral in May, there was no meeting between the pair.

Other stars appearing in the clip, included David Beckham, Jessica Ennis-Hill, Sir Chris Hoy, Dame Kelly Holmes and US athlete Michael Johnson, who has been part of the BBC’s Olympic coverage.
Snoop then finally signed off the star-studded video by holding his hands together and saying: “Thank you Great Britain, on behalf of Big Snoop Dogg, the Prince and his lovely wife.”
Snoop Dogg has been a regular fixture at this year’s Paris Olympics delighting crowds as he toured the various events.
Days before he jetted to France’s capital, in a UK media interview, he spoke about his bond with the late Queen Elizabeth II. Speaking to Capital FM’s Jordan North, Snoop Dogg divulged that the late monarch also cherished his music, saying: “Well, the Queen was a fan too.”
He then affectionately added: “Rest in peace to the Queen, that was my girl. You know what I’m saying? So, just may want to go up and, you know, see what you do.”
The rap star served as a torchbearer and special correspondent for NBC Sports providing coverage of the entire international sporting event.
“I’ve been out here working the Olympics, talking to the athletes, to the families, and meeting the people and kissing the babies,” he told NBC. “And doing the things that I do to politically stay correct, and just being Snoop Dogg. That’s what I know how to do the best.”
Queen Camilla Is the Real Reason King Charles Won’t See Harry, Friend Says
King Charles decided not to meet his son Prince Harry in London this week because of Harry’s “cruel” remarks about his wife, Queen Camilla, in his memoir, Spare, a friend of Charles and Camilla has told The Daily Beast.
Observers had thought that father and son could have met today, Wednesday, especially as both had events within just a couple of miles of each other—a ceremony to mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games for Harry, and the first Buckingham Palace garden party of the year for Charles. But Harry released a statement saying Charles was too busy to see him, with the palace a couple of hours later saying Charles was making Prince William the head of Harry’s old regiment. Harry’s U.K. trip has fast become a snub pile-up.
In Spare, Harry said Camilla “sacrificed me on her personal PR altar,” and described her as “dangerous.”
In remarks to Anderson Cooper on the show 60 Minutes to promote the book, which is estimated to have made Harry some $27 million, Harry said: “With a family built on hierarchy, and with her on the way to being queen consort, there was going to be people or bodies left in the street.”
He also described his stepmother as a “villain” and the “third person in the marriage,” echoing his mother’s controversial interview with Martin Bashir in 1995, when Diana said there were “three of us in the marriage.”
King Says He’s Too Busy With Work to See Harry During London Trip
“Harry has made things very difficult for himself by saying such cruel and hurtful things about Camilla,” the friend told The Daily Beast. “Charles loves his sons, but he also loves his wife. The last few months have made it very clear how important she is; she has been the one propping up the whole edifice.
Prince Harry attempts ending King Charles ‘bitter row’ with heartfelt move
King Charles may still be holding a grudge with his younger son Prince Harry; however, the Duke of Sussex is holding out on a wild card.
Harry, who stepped down from his royal duties in 2020 alongside wife Meghan Markle, has been unable to have a meeting with his cancer-stricken father, but is ready to pull on his heartstrings if the need arises, per royal correspondent Jennie Bond.
“Having grandchildren is a powerful tug on the heartstrings,” Bond told OK! magazine, noting how Archie and Lilibet could help heal relations.
She added that King Charles “very much wants the chance to get to know Archie and Lilibet and to create some memories for them.”
Hence, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet “may provide the most compelling link between Charles and Harry, and convince them both to forgive, if not forget, the bitter rows of the past.”
While Prince Harry once used to be close to his family, Meghan on the other hand, is estranged from her own father and is only connected to her mother.
Bond expressed that she “fervently hopes that Harry will not follow Meghan’s example of remaining obdurately estranged from her father and most of her family,” adding that maybe Archie and Lilibet hold “the key to reconciliation.”
Previously, royal correspondent Michael Cole told GB News that the King is “desperate” to know his grandchildren as he realises “time is short.”
Shocking Revelation: OH MY GOD! Prince Harry Goes Bitter After DNA TEST Of Archie And Lilibet Unveiled.
Prince Harry allegedly took two DNA tests last year to determine if Archie is really his biological son.
The Enigma of Prince Harry’s Fatherhood: A Captivating Exploration.In the captivating world of the British Royal Family, where every detail is scrutinized and analyzed, a recent revelation has sent shockwaves through the media. According to a recent report, Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, allegedly conducted not one, but two secret DNA tests to verify his paternity of his son, Archie. This startling news has left the public and royal watchers alike intrigued, speculating on the reasons behind this seemingly unconventional move.
The reports suggest that Harry’s apprehension began shortly after Archie’s birth in 2019. Footage and images from the time show the prince appearing anxious and stressed, leading body language experts to conclude that he was grappling with personal turmoil. The video cites private investigators who claim Harry took the first DNA test soon after Archie’s arrival, but kept the results hidden from the public eye. Six months later, a second test was allegedly conducted, further fueling the speculation surrounding the young royal’s uncertainty.
According to Globe, the tests revealed two different results. The first DNA test revealed that Prince Harry isn’t Archie’s biological father.
“In the days leading up to Prince Harry’s wife, Meghan, giving birth, the couple was stunned to learn a DNA test using amniotic fluid, routinely performed on royal babies, revealed the redhead is NOT the child’s daddy,” a source said.
The insider claimed that Prince Harry refused to accept the result of the test and was devastated. The Duke of Sussex allegedly turned ghastly white and Markle burst into tears in shock.
An angry Prince Harry allegedly called the first DNA test a scam. He also accused those who administered the test of concocting a conspiracy against him and his child.
The Real Reason Prince Harry and King Charles Are No Longer Speaking: ‘Harry’s Calls Go Unanswered’ (Exclusive)
Prince Harry’s desperation to protect his wife and kids has deepened his estrangement from his father, King Charles.
He gets ‘unavailable right now,’ ” says a friend of Harry’s. “His calls go unanswered. He has tried to reach out about the King’s health, but those calls go unanswered too.”
When the Duke of Sussex, 39, returned to the U.K. in May to celebrate the 10th anniversary of one of his proudest achievements, the Invictus Games, his father was notably absent from the ceremony.
The two were unable to meet during Harry’s visit, which the prince’s spokesperson attributed to the King’s “full schedule.” However, sources close to Harry suggest a deeper issue. Harry wanted to discuss his ongoing battle for security, which he has been fighting for in court for more than four years and believes Charles, 75, has the power to reinstate. (Buckingham Palace will not comment on security provisions, but a palace source tells PEOPLE the notion that Harry’s security is in Charles’s hands is “wholly incorrect.”)
The family rift that first became public in 2020 when Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, stepped back from their royal roles has been marked by blistering attacks and unresolved tensions. But for Harry, no single issue is a greater sticking point than that of security, multiple well-placed insiders in his circle tell in this week’s exclusive cover story.
Despite a positive meeting between the father and son in February following the King’s cancer diagnosis, their communication has since deteriorated. Those close to Prince Harry say the monarch no longer takes his son’s calls or responds to his letters.
