In startling claims on the state of relations between Prince Harry and his family, a royal insider has claimed Meghan Markle could be blocking reconciliation efforts.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s relationship with the Royal Family has been frosty since before they announced plans to quit their roles, as they detailed in several interviews and Harry’s book Spare.

Former royal butler Grant Harrold suggested earlier this week that the Firm might agree on burying the hatched if the Duke agreed to apologise for the cutting remarks he made in his autobiography.

But speaking to Sky News Australia, commentator Dee Dee Dunleavy claimed: “(Harry) is not going to apologise, at least not while he is still with Meghan.

“I really do believe he does her bidding and she is never going to allow him to apologise to the family.”
