Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's relationship with the British royal family appears to be reaching a point of no return, with their exclusion from significant social and family events signaling a deepening rift. Sources close to the royal circle reveal that the Sussexes are increasingly being left out, a trend expected to become a norm for the couple.
The situation was underscored by reports of their absence from Hugh Grosvenor's summer wedding, a notable social event attended by key members of the aristocracy, including King Charles III and Prince William. This exclusion is seen as part of a broader pattern, indicating that the British aristocracy has effectively 'closed the door' on Harry and Meghan.
An insider shared, "It's clear that people are being made to choose sides, and of course Harry believes William has instigated certain snubs and social exclusions." This sentiment is echoed by another source, who added, "As far as those who are loyal to The Firm, Harry and Meghan are off the list. Nobody's going to risk crossing or upsetting Charles and the Prince and Princess of Wales. They have the power."
The Sussexes' public criticisms and their portrayal in the media and books like Omid Scobie's "Endgame" have only deepened the divide. The latest controversy involving the Dutch version of Scobie's book, which reportedly identified Kate Middleton and King Charles as the individuals who made insensitive remarks about Archie's skin color, has added fuel to the fire.
This ongoing saga has placed a significant strain on Prince Harry's relationship with his family, particularly his brother, Prince William. The source described the situation, saying, "Harry is still incredibly hurt by how he has been ostracized by his brother." The likelihood of receiving an apology from the royal family, especially from Prince William, seems remote.
Despite these challenges, Meghan is reportedly encouraging Harry to embrace their new life in California. "Meghan has told Harry that whoever has turned against him isn't a real friend anyway, and Harry agrees," said the insider. However, for Harry, adjusting to his new role as an 'unpopular figure' is proving to be a difficult reality.
As the situation evolves, the likelihood of a reconciliation between the Sussexes and the royal family appears increasingly remote. The internal dynamics within the royal family and the public's perception of these events continue to unfold, marking a significant chapter in the contemporary history of the British monarchy.
