Royal Family: Prince Harry feels 'guilty' over Meghan giving up dream life for royals

A royal commentator has suggested that "Prince Harry's face said it all" when Meghan Markle performed an exaggerated curtsy when describing her first meeting with the late Elizabeth II.

The Duchess of Sussex discussed the "surreal" encounter during the filming of her and the Duke's Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan, which was released on the platform last year.

Prince Harry once "snapped King Charles's olive branch in half" after the monarch made a sweet gesture when he ascended to the throne, a royal expert has claimed.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been estranged from the Royal Family since they quit their royal duties and moved to the US in 2020.

Harry's strained relationship with his family across the pond has not been the best since their sensational departure, however, after the late Queen Elizabeth's death in September 2022, when Charles became King, he addressed the Sussexess in his inaugural speech to the nation.

In the historic first speech of the monarch, Charles acknowledged his younger son and Meghan Markle, who now reside in Montecito, California.

He said: "I want also to express my love for Harry and Meghan as they continue to build their lives overseas."

Queen Camilla's transformation from being perceived as fashionably conservative to becoming a style icon involves a combination of strategic fashion choices, professional guidance, and evolving public perception.

In her early appearances, the Queen often dressed in jeans and baggy sweatshirts, embodying the typical attire of someone who enjoys the rural lifestyle of the Cotswolds.

However, with time, over time she has completely transformed her look - and is now known as a fashion icon in royal circles, up there with the likes of Princess Kate and Duchess Sophie, who both also know how to dress for the occasion.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been issued a warning over what could happen if they start “shouting and screaming” amid the US presidential elections.

Speaking on the Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered podcast about Harry and Meghan’s distinct silence during the election campaign, Kevin O’Sullivan commented on what could happen if Donald Trump becomes president and how he will treat the pair.

He said: “This depends on how vocal they are between now and November 5. If they start coming out shouting and screaming about vote Kamala, then Donald will be having a close look at Harry’s visa when he gets into power.”

Mr O’Sullivan’s discussion with Kinsey Schofield comes months after Trump suggested he might deport Harry if he wins the US election in November.

Meghan Markle as well as her husband Prince Harry will always try to "hog" the limelight as they could lose their "value" and "worth" otherwise, a royal expert has claimed.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have seen their popularity massively drop in recent years, after their sensational departure from the Royal Family and move to the US in 2020.

Now royal author Tom Bower suggested the couple's damaged reputation cannot be salvaged and anything they will do will end up being criticised.

He told the Sun: "Well, right now if you're an American, you get very little by being next to people who are the subjects of so much criticism.

"I don’t think they can solve it, the momentum is either up or down.

"The King is keen for it to be a happy family occasion which will see members of the Royal Family come together for just over a week to discuss plans for the future and to unwind."

The Royal Family will make their way to Balmoral after the castle closes down to the public on August 4 followed by the outer grounds closing on August 11.

"Mid-August has been pencilled in for the main arrivals while some members of the family could join a shooting event on August 12," said the source.

Queen Camilla arrived at Ascot this afternoon to present The King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes trophy.

The 77-year-old stepped out in a floral dress, wowing fans with her glamorous look to mark the event.

Ascot was a firm favourite in the late Queen's royal diary, with King Charles and Camilla having been regulars at the events in recent years.

Queen Camilla looked delighted as she prepared to hand over the trophy to the winner.

Meghan Markle could soon release a book compiling her diary entries during her time in Britain, according to a filmmaker behind a controversial new Prince Harry and Meghan Markle documentary.

Ulrike Grunewald, who is working on 'Harry - the lost Prince' which is due to air on the ZDF network in Germany in December, has suggested that the British public won't believe a word Meghan Markle writes.

There is only one reason for Prince William declining the opportunity to reveal how much tax he pays, according to a royal expert.

The Prince of Wales has refused to reveal how much tax he pays on private income derived from his massive property portfolio. His Duchy of Cornwall estate, which he inherited after grandmother the late Queen Elizabeth II died in 2022, generated huge profits of £23.6m over the last financial year.

Meghan Markle will soon be revealing more details for her upcoming Netflix series which aims to celebrate "joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship", and as I am anticipating new recipes to follow from the Duchess of Sussex, I thought I would experiment with her existing 'tried and tested' recipe.I had heard a lot about Meghan's love for courgette pasta, which Americans refer to as 'zucchini'. Speaking to food outlet Delish, Meghan once described how a friend convinced her to slow-cook courgettes until they break down into a "filthy, sexy mush".

Meghan Markle may have finished filming her new Netflix cooking show, but she will have some "fierce competition" to contend with, a brand expert has stated.

She and Prince Harry signed their deal with the streaming platform back in 2020 and have since produced a number of programmes, however they have yet to match the success of their 2022 self-titled series.

Prince Harry has reportedly been left feeling "guilty" that Meghan Markle gave up her "dream life" - something that she is said to be missing.

Upon their engagement back in 2017, Meghan gave up on her actress dreams, with one source stating that Harry knew "how much she sacrificed" to tie the knot.

Meghan Markle has been urged to "stay out of US politics" after claims that the 42-year-old is looking to "queue jump" into the political office.

The Duchess of Sussex, who stepped down as a senor working royal in 2020, reportedly "wants to be involved" in this year's US election following rumours of a potential presidency bid.

Society stylist Caroline Holden has dissected Meghan Markle’s latest looks and explains why she needs a stylist after wearing ‘ill-fitting and baggy clothes’ for years.

Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk, Mrs. Holden, who used to dress Queen Camilla in her role working with designer Paddy Campbell and now styles high society names, says Meghan makes one big faux pas by allowing the clothes to do the talking rather than her figure.

A photo of Princess Catherine and Princess Charlotte has left people stunned after they spotted it was just like a similar snap of Princess Diana and Prince William. But it was another royal resemblance that really got fans talking.

The Princess of Wales, 42, appeared at Wimbledon alongside her nine-year-old daughter earlier this month. The pair enjoyed a front-seat view of the men's singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic from the Royal Box at Centre Court.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are said to be considering going their separate ways this summer, it has been reported.

The Duke of Sussex could be set to prioritise a visit to the UK, a visit that will include a meeting with King Charles.

Unlike her husband, a visit to the UK is said to be too much for Meghan - with the 42-year-old not set to join Harry on the visit.
