Queen Elizabeth would never comment publicly on the long-standing dispute between the royal family and Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan. However, keeping the feud a secret is an impossible task for her and Prince Charles.
True to their traditional motto “Never complain, never explain” (Eng. “Never complain, never explain”), Queen Elizabeth, 96, and Prince Charles, 74, try the feud between the Royals and the two dropouts Prince Harry, 37, and Duchess Meghan, 40, not to be made public. They tried to contain the “poisonous” dispute, as Royal biographer Tom Bower claims. However in vain.
“Prince Charles and the Queen are doing their best”
“It’s really toxic. I think the Windsors, Prince Charles, the Queen are doing their best to keep their cool, but it’s just impossible,” the expert said, according to Express. “Especially since Harry’s memoirs are coming out soon.” The prince’s autobiography is reportedly due out this fall, and will shed some juicy revelations.
“Ever since Meghan left the UK and then was with Oprah Winfrey, it’s been really toxic,” explains Tom Bower. In their explosive interview with the US entertainer, Harry and Meghan made serious allegations against the British royals, who have torn a deep rift between them.
No reconciliation with Harry and Meghan at the anniversary
The hoped-for reconciliation between the Sussexes and the Windsors does not seem to have come about when they met again at the Queen’s platinum throne jubilee in early June. The couple, who had traveled from the USA with their children, ended their flying visit to Great Britain before the end of the celebrations.
Her absence from the final pageant in front of Buckingham Palace sent a clear signal, says royal expert Victoria Arbiter. “I think it’s quite significant that Harry and Meghan weren’t at the palace concert on Saturday night,” she said in the “Sunrise” interview. It speaks for a “persistent cold”. The couple could have jumped at the chance to settle things with the family. But the celebrations intervened. “This wasn’t the weekend when the family would have had a lot of time to get together and talk behind the scenes.”
It is not clear when the family members will have another opportunity to speak. Contrary to initial assumptions, there is said to have been no invitation to the Queen’s vacation home in Balmoral Castle.
