In the two years since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex departed for America, the Queen’s “never complain, never explain” ethos has been sorely tested as the couple made serious public allegations against the royal family.
Most damaging has been Meghan’s repeated claims of alleged racism and mistreatment, spouted on podcasts, TV shows and opinion pieces in the American press.
Sadly, if anyone thought the duchess would give it a rest after it was revealed the Queen was enjoying much-needed rest at Balmoral Castle with mobility issues, they had another thing coming.
Last week, the 41-year-old actress continued her public attack on the monarchy, telling highbrow US magazine The Cut, “It’s interesting, I’ve never had to sign anything that restricts me from talking.”
As “interesting” as Meghan might find the situation, Woman’s Day’s royal insiders reveal the palace has taken her comments as nothing short of a threat.
“I can talk about my whole experience and make a choice not to,” she taunted before telling the journalist she’s made an “active effort” to forgive the royal family, “especially knowing I can say anything”.
THE FINAL STRAW
It’s this comment, say sources, that was the final straw for an embattled Prince Charles, 73. “It was meant as a threat and Charles took it that way,” says a palace insider. “When he read that, he knew Meghan was making it clear she was never going to stop this nonsense and now it’s time to do something.”
