Meghan's Revenge On The Palace

Inside her secret plan to rule

Just days after it was confirmed that Prince Harry and Meghan’s planned Megxit review in March has been cancelled, chaos is said to be brewing behind palace walls. New Idea understands the Queen is preparing to call a private crisis meeting with senior members of the royal family after learning of an alleged plan against the palace.

Despite stepping back as senior members of the royal family early last year, sources believe the Duchess of Sussex is still playing the long game.

“She is all too aware that her Archie is still seventh in line to the throne until the Cambridge kids have families of their own, and she has – rather morbidly – confided to friends that “anything can happen, so it’s best I’m prepared”, the insider explains.

Indeed, even royal author and historical consultant to The Crown, Robert Lacey, in his latest book, Battle of Brothers: William, Harry and the Inside Story of a Family in Tumult, says: “Who knows what can happen in an age of terrorist attacks and global pandemics … six and seven could well get promoted to three and four, or higher.”

Our source says Meghan, 39, will make sure 1-year-old Archie is all studied up on his royal side of the family just in case he ever needs to step up and become king.
