Meghan and Harry have been the talk of the Royal Family since stepping down from their positions.
Meghan and Harry said they wanted a more private life for their children, and moved to Los Angeles to live a more normal life out of the media eye.
However, many feel like the couple has truly slandered the Royal Family.
And that Harry’s relationships with his brother, father and grandparents was “hanging by a thread.”
Although, through the rifts, there were reports that the Royal Family were “delighted” by the news of the couple’s second child, Lilibet’s birth.
Despite Harry’s continuous blasting of them across all media platforms.
Harry’s relationship with his family remains strained.
With Charles apparently refusing his calls on the lead up to the announcement in 2020. Harry also said he was financially cut off from his father after they stepped down and at first they were forced to live off Diana’s inheritance.
Asked by Oprah Winfrey during their televised interview about why they left, Harry blamed a “lack of support and lack of understanding.”
He also said he wanted to get away from the ‘genetic pain’ he felt from his family, especially his father, King Charles.
“I feel really let down because he’s been through something similar, he knows what pain feels like, (and) Archie’s his grandson.”
“But at the same time – I will always love him – but there’s a lot of hurt that’s happened and I will continue to make it one of my priorities to try and heal that relationship. But they only know what they know, or what they’re told.”
Then, of course, following Lilibet’s birth came the controversy surrounding her name…
With one royal biographer, Angela Levin, deeming it as ‘rude.’
As we know, their baby girl was named Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.
Paying tribute to Harry’s late mother Diana, Princess of Wales, who died in 1997, when Harry was just twelve.
The name Lilibet is also a tribute to Queen Elizabeth II herself.
A family pet name, the Queen bestowed it on herself as a child as she couldn’t pronounce the name Elizabeth. The name was particularly used by the Queen’s late husband Prince Philip. It was also used by her doting father, King George VI.
But, despite the tribute, people still weren’t happy with some even accusing that, by using the Queen’s private pet name as a first name, Harry had broken royal protocol.
Harry was heavily criticized for taking such a private, intimate pet name and giving it to his child, after what some are calling an ‘onslaught of abuse’ against his grandmother and The Firm.
Royal commentator, Richard Kay, suggested that it may be a step too far for Meghan and Harry to name their daughter Lilibet.
Writing in a column for the Daily Mail, he said: “By giving the baby the name Lilibet, the Queen’s private family nickname – even though they intend to use the diminutive ‘Lili’ for their daughter – there is a risk.”
“Will it be seen as a presumptuous choice for a royal baby who is eighth in line to the throne, but who will grow up on the other side of the world speaking with an American accent?”
“It is tempting to wonder if Harry would have been so emboldened in his choice if his grandfather Prince Philip – the only close family member permitted to call the Queen ‘Lilibet’ – had still been alive.”
“Doubtless, there will be among the more cautious courtiers at the Palace some discomfort and the odd raised eyebrow at this latest convention-destroying Exocet from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.”
There was a mixed response to the name, with some believing that the couple were pandering to the Queen for forgiveness, whilst others thought that it was a touching tribute.
Following that, Meghan revealed in a short clip that she was asking forty friends to donate forty minutes to help mentor a woman back into work.
In a message on their Archewell website with the clip, Meghan also wrote: “In reflecting on my 40th birthday and the many things I am grateful for, I’m struck that time is among our greatest and most essential gifts.”
“Time with our loved ones, time doing the things we love, time spent learning, laughing, growing, and the sacred time we have on this earth. Amongst the most valuable gifts of time is also time spent in service to others knowing that it can contribute to incredible change.”
“To that last point, and with my 40th lap around the sun in mind, it made me wonder: what would happen if we all committed 40 minutes to helping someone else or to mentoring someone in need? And then what would happen if we asked our friends to do the same?”
“In the past two years, and in large part because of the COVID-19 pandemic, tens of millions of women around the world have left the workforce, including over 2 million women in the US.”
“So many of these women are also shouldering the brunt of the crisis when it comes to unpaid labor, including schooling and caring for family members. And the latest research shows that fewer women than men will regain work as we recover from the pandemic.”
“I believe mentorship is one way to help women regain confidence and rebuild their economic strength, and for my birthday, I have asked 40 friends, activists, athletes, artists, and world leaders to help kickoff a global effort by contributing 40 minutes of mentorship to support women re-entering the workforce.”
“With this time, I hope they each help someone advance a professional life on her own terms, and, I hope that they inspire countless others to give 40 minutes of their time as well.
“If you are able, please join us and pledge 40 minutes today in service of others in the way that feels right to you. The time that you donate can contribute to a global wave of service and set in motion meaningful impact in our own communities, and across the world.”
And not long after, the pair sparked opinions from people once again…
When the couple released their 2021 Christmas card which features the first public photo of their daughter, Lilibet.
The then-6-month-old is featured alongside the couple and her big brother, Archie and as you can imagine, many people were swooning over how adorable it is.
However, there are some people that had an issue with it as they “felt sorry” for Archie…
“Poor Archie completely ignored and they wasn’t significant enough to make them a family,” one person said.
“To be honest, that’s a little insulting to poor Archie. Sort of like until Lili came along he didn’t really matter. The photo is also all about Lili, no one is paying him any attention. Hope that’s not reflection of reality!” said another.
People have been left “feeling sorry” for Archie as they claim he looked “sad” and was being left out.
What do you think? We think the picture is adorable!
Next, Will and Kate got serious backlash.
The pair sent a message to Meghan Markle over social media that got everyone talking.
“No,” one person simply replied.
“Seriously?? Wow. No words,” another wrote.
“I can’t I just can’t,” another noted.
So what got people so riled up?
Well, Will and Kate wished Meghan a Happy Birthday…
Yes, that’s right… People are furious about it as they claim that Meghan doesn’t deserve a Happy Birthday from the Cambridges.
In other news, Meghan has used the first episode of her brand new podcast to take a swipe at the Royal Family.
During the episode, she claimed that she was forced to continue with her engagements on a tour of South Africa despite being left in tears when her son Archie narrowly escaped a fire in his bedroom.
Meghan started her podcast by talking about the word ambition.
And how it affected her negatively.
“And um, apparently ambition is, uh… a terrible, terrible thing, for a woman that is – according to some.
“So, since I’ve felt the negativity behind it, it’s really hard to un-feel it,” she said, as per the Daily Mail.
“I can’t unsee it, either, in the millions of girls and women who make themselves smaller – so much smaller – on a regular basis,” she added.
Further adding to the topic, Meghan spoke to tennis legend Serena Williams, who is one of her close friends, about the double standards women face when they are labeled “ambitious.”
She complained about the misconception “that if you’re an ambitious woman you have an agenda, you must be calculating or selfish or aggressive, or a climber.”
And she said that “the notion of ambition comes with many judgments and nuances — especially for women.”
“Now, look, I’m not Catholic. I wasn’t raised Catholic.
“But about one year after my letter-writing campaign, I started middle school at Immaculate Heart (in Los Angeles). I stayed there, through high school. I was there for six years. And this feminist ideology trickled down into nearly every aspect of my education,” she said.
“It’s probably safe to say into every aspect of my life. This message to me and my classmates was clear: our futures as young women were limitless. Ambition. Well, that was the whole point.
“So I don’t ever remember personally feeling the negative connotation behind the word ambitious until I started dating my now husband,” Meghan said.
And another episode of Meghan’s podcast hit headlines…
In the episode, Meghan spoke about the battles women face to keep their emotions inside with actors Constance Wu, Jenny Slate, and Deepika Padukone.
“I think when you’re taught that ladies don’t make scenes or, like, if you make a scene, you’re crazy,” said Wu.
“But really, the craziest thing in the world would be to keep all of that inside. So this. You, right now, I mean. I think it’s… I think it’s beautiful,” Meghan replied.
“So, even my own version of like… I would love to cry this much, but I’m conditioned to still have some – a different kind of composure.
“And now you sort of go, oh, just relax and let it out. And I see the same thing in my kids as you’re talking about in yours, and I’m like, ‘Oh my God, I want to do that’. I want to feel so deeply. It’s like an Adele album. Just like so much intense emotion,” she continued.
“Raise your hand if you’ve ever been called ‘crazy’ or ‘hysterical’, ‘nuts’, ‘out of your mind’, ‘completely irrational’.
“If we were all in the same room and could see each other, I think it’d be pretty easy to see just how many of you out there have your hands up. By the way, me too,” Meghan said.
Meghan has opened up about her life before entering the Royal Family, and how she struggled with how she was viewed while working on Deal or No Deal.
She appeared in 34 episodes between 2006 and 2007.
In this weeks podcast with Paris Hilton, called Breaking Down the Bimbo, Meghan shared that she was treated like a “bimbo.”
Explaining that she hopes her daughter doesn’t have to go through that: “I want our daughter to aspire to be slightly higher. Yeah, I want my Lili to want to be educated and want to be smart and to pride herself on those things.”
Speaking about working on Deal or No Deal, she said: “I ended up quitting the show. I was so much more than what was being objectified on the stage. I didn’t like feeling forced to be all looks. And little substance. And that’s how it felt for me at the time being reduced to this specific archetype the word bimbo.”
She added: “I was surrounded by smart women on that stage with me, but that wasn’t the focus of why we were there and I would end up leaving with this pit in my stomach. Like I said, I was thankful for the job but not for how it made me feel which was not smart.”
Meghan admitted that while she was “really grateful as an auditioning actress to have a job,” she just couldn’t shake the feeling of being appreciated for just her body rather than her brain.
She said: “There were times when I was on set at Deal or No Deal and thinking back to my time working as an intern at the U.S. Embassy in Argentina, Buenos Aires, and being in the motorcade with the secretary of treasury at the time and being valued specifically for my brain.”
Meghan went on to interview Paris Hilton and Iliza Shlesinger.
They discussed the misogynistic labels of ‘Bimbo’ and ‘Dumb Blonde’, and why “brains and beauty in a woman have been historically pitted against each other.”
They then went on to discuss their hopes for women of the future.
Meghan said: “Curious to hear your thoughts on this idea of, when I hear the word ‘bimbo,’ I have a very negative connotation to it. I don’t see that as an aspirational thing for women.”
Meghan then pondered for a moment: “I want our daughters to aspire to be.”
Before fellow guest, Iliza Shlesinger, quipped in response: “Slightly higher.”
“Yeah. I want my Lili to want to be educated, and want to be smart, and to pride herself on those things,” the forty-one-year-old replied.

And next, Meghan finally broke her silence on the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
She said she was very fortunate to have known her.
“I feel fortunate [to have known her],” she told Variety in an interview.
“I’m really grateful that I was able to be with my husband, [Prince Harry], to support him, especially during that time,” she continued.
“What’s so beautiful is to look at the legacy that his grandmother was able to leave on so many fronts,” she said.
Meghan called the Queen “the most shining example of … female leadership,” and added: “I feel deep gratitude to have been able to spend time with her and get to know her.”
She noted while it’s been a “complicated time” Harry has remained ever-optimistic and said: “Now she’s reunited with her husband, [Prince Philip].”
During the same interview, the former actress went on to talk about herself too.
Meghan addressed some of the misconceptions surrounding her and said: “I think that what happens, looking in from the outside, when there is this much noise, is that you become dehumanized.
“But if you remember that someone is a human being, then you don’t treat them, talk about them, look at them the same way.”
She said that she hoped her podcast Archetypes will make people realize she’s a real person.
Meghan wants the public to see that she “laughs and asks questions and approaches things with curiosity.”
And her Archetypes podcast isn’t the only way she’s planning on speaking out about her feelings.
Meghan and Harry’s explosive Netflix docuseries is the latest thing to get everyone talking.
Following the Queen’s passing, it has been reported that the pair are having to rethink some of the comments they shared.
This struck many as a rather hypocritical move…
“What backtracking snakes those two are, they had a shock when they came over for the Queen’s funeral, ignored by most of the family, mostly ignored by the public, they are afraid they might lose their money-making titles, Charles please take the titles and succession away, we don’t want them here,” wrote one.
“His mother would be so disappointed in him!” added another.
Page Six revealed that the couple made a dramatic U-turn on the tone of their project.
“A lot of conversations are happening. I hear that Harry and Meghan want the series to be held until next year, they want to stall.
“I wonder if the show could even be dead in the water at this point, do Harry and Meghan just want to shelve this thing?” One Hollywood industry source told the media outlet.
Meghan also revealed that the new series “may not be the way we would have told it,” as it’s being told through someone else.
It’s directed by Liz Garbus, and Meghan said of this: “It’s nice to be able to trust someone with our story – a seasoned director whose work I’ve long admired – even if it means it may not be the way we would have told it.”
She added: “But that’s not why we’re telling it.
“We’re trusting our story to someone else, and that means it will go through their lens.”
The trailer of the documentary dropped first.
Harry & Meghan air’s across 6 episodes and shows many of their major life events over the past few years.
“Why did you want to make this documentary?” the couple is asked in the promo.
“No one sees what’s happening behind closed doors,” Harry says. “I had to do everything I could to protect my family.”
Meghan agrees: “When the stakes are this high, doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?”
Harry can also be heard saying that multiple stories about Meghan in the press were fabricated.
“There’s a hierarchy of the family,” he said. “You know, there’s leaking, but there’s also planting of stories.”
A journalist can then be heard saying: “There was a war against Meghan to suit other people’s agendas.”
Before someone else adds: “It’s about hatred, it’s about race.”
“The pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution, this feeding frenzy,” Harry also said in the latest trailer.
The description reads: “Across six episodes, the series explores the clandestine days of their early courtship and the challenges that led to them feeling forced to step back from their full-time roles in the institution.
“With commentary from friends and family, most of whom have never spoken publicly before about what they witnessed, and historians who discuss the state of the British Commonwealth today and the royal family’s relationship with the press.
“The series does more than illuminate one couple’s love story, it paints a picture of our world and how we treat each other.”
And now the highly anticipated docuseries has finally dropped.
And in episode 2, Harry appears to criticize King Charles’ parenting style.
“I think it’s such a responsibility as human beings that if you bring a small person into this world, you should be doing anything you can to make the world a better place for them,” he says.
“But equally what’s most important for the two of us is to make sure that we don’t repeat the same mistakes that perhaps our parents made.”
But that’s not the only thing he’s said that’s got people talking.
In one episode of their series, he opened up about his biggest mistake.
On Halloween 2004, Harry controversially dressed up as a N*zi soldier – something he is now ashamed of.
“I felt so ashamed afterward,” Harry said. “All I wanted to do was make it right.”
“I sat down and spoke to the chief rabbi in London, which had a profound impact on me,” he continued.
“I went to Berlin and spoke to a Holocaust survivor.
“I could’ve just ignored it and probably made the same mistakes over and over again in my life, but I learned from that,” he concluded.
But the latest episode of their docuseries has gotten people talking.
Harry recalled the “terrifying” moment his brother, William, “screamed and shouted at him.”
Harry said in the documentary: “It was terrifying to have my brother scream and shout at me, and my father say things that just simply weren’t true.”
He further added that his “grandmother, you know, quietly sit there, and sort of take it all in.”
Following Harry’s claims…
He released a never-before-seen picture of him and William.
During one episode of the documentary, Harry and Meghan were shown looking through a scrapbook while reflecting on the time the couple spent at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor.
According to OK, Meghan said: “We were going through so many boxes just literally looking at everything going, ‘Oh my gosh, you bought this blanket I missed, that hat was so funny’, just taking it all in.
“It really gave us a chance to look back at our whole love story.”
While looking through the scrapbook, some images were shown.
And among those were pictures of Harry and William.
The outlet reports that a collage of pictures from when William and Harry were younger when shown.
The pictures showed the pair with smiles on their faces from a family holiday.
Other images in the scrapbook include Harry and William posing on a beach and using binoculars.
Harry then shocked the world with another revelation about his relationship with his brother.
He revealed that during a disagreement about Harry’s relationship with Meghan, things got physical between the brothers.
According to the Guardian, in an extract from his book, Spare, Harry writes: “He called me another name, then came at me. It all happened so fast. So very fast. He grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and he knocked me to the floor.”
“I landed on the dog’s bowl, which cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me.”
“I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out.”
Harry then claimed William asked him not to tell Meghan about the fight.
“You mean that you attacked me?” Harry asked.
William responded: “I didn’t attack you, Harold.”
Harry also claimed Meghan noticed the “scrapes and bruises” on his back.
And that’s not all.
Harry also took a swipe at his father, King Charles, in the book, the outlet reports.
Yahoo reports that Harry was not keen on his father marrying Camilla!
“I remember wondering… if she would be cruel to me; if she would be like all the wicked stepmothers in the stories,” he writes, the outlet reports.
“Willy had been suspicious of the Other Woman for a long time, which confused and tormented him.”
“When those suspicions were confirmed, he felt agonizing remorse for not having done or said anything before.”
Harry also claims he “begged” Charles not to remarry.
Harry also opened up about his army service in Afghanistan between 2007-8 and again in 2012.
More specifically, he revealed the number of people he killed.
The Daily Mail reports that Harry writes: “It seemed to me essential not to be afraid of that number.”
“So my number is 25. It’s not a number that fills me with satisfaction, but nor does it embarrass me.”
“You can’t kill people if you see them as people,” Harry goes on.
Saying instead that he saw them as “chess pieces removed from the board,” or “bad guys eliminated.”
Since then, senior Taliban leader Anas Haqqani has taken to Twitter in response.
He wrote: “Mr. Harry! The ones you killed were not chess pieces, they were humans; they had families who were waiting for their return.
“Among the killers of Afghans, not many have your decency to reveal their conscience and confess to their war crimes.
“The truth is what you’ve said; Our innocent people were chess pieces to your soldiers, military and political leaders. Still, you were defeated in that game of white & black square.
“I don’t expect that the ICC will summon you or the human rights activists will condemn you, because they are deaf and blind for you. But hopefully these atrocities will be remembered in the history of humanity.”
But Harry’s shocking admission isn’t the only thing on people’s minds.
He recently opened up once again during his ITV interview on Sunday night.
But it seems people struggled to concentrate on what Harry had to say.
Viewers took to social media to comment on something that caught their eye in the background.
Harry sat down with Tom Bradby ahead of his book release, in the interview, he denied calling his family racist, and instead said they were guilty of “unconscious bias.”
He also mentioned how William and Kate didn’t get on with Meghan from the beginning for “lots of different reasons.”
Afterward, people flooded Twitter with clips of the interview, pointing out something pretty bizarre that caught their attention.
“Just starting #HarryTheInterview and before its actually started I’m already annoyed…… the door handles are upside down,” one person tweeted.
Another added: “Oh yeah!! Well spotted (it’s annoying me now….).”
“#HarryTheInterview the thing from this interview that is really making my blood boil. Who put the doors handles on upside down!! Just can’t concentrate on anything else!” a third wrote.
In addition to his remarks about his family, Harry opened up about the hatred he felt towards his stepmother in his recent 60 Minute interview.
He described Camilla Parker Bowles as the “villain” and “the third person in their marriage,” when discussing her involvement with his father.
Camilla famously became the other woman in King Charles and Diana’s relationship.
“She needed to rehabilitate her image,” Harry said about the Queen Consort after Charles divorced his mother.
Harry explained to Anderson Cooper that he found Camilla threatening “because of the connections that she was forging within the British press.”
He added: “And there was open willingness on both sides to trade of information.
“And with a family built on hierarchy, and with her, on the way to being Queen consort, there was gonna be people or bodies left in the street because of that.”
Harry revealed in his book that he, along with Prince William, pleaded with Charles not to remarry.
“We didn’t think it was necessary,” Harry said. “We thought that it was gonna cause more harm than good and that if he was now with his person, that — surely that’s enough. Why go that far when you don’t necessarily need to?”
They later agreed to the union for their father’s sake.
But Harry’s recent comments aren’t the only thing concerning royal fans.
As some breaking news has just announced.
Prince Harry, Meghan and her mother were involved in a “near catastrophic car chase” involving paparazzi, a spokesperson for the prince has said – The BBC Reports.
The incident happened after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended an awards ceremony in New York on Tuesday.
Information about the shocking incident is still coming through.
But it’s been reported that the car chase almost resulted in collisions with other drivers, pedestrians and police.
“While being a public figure comes with a level of interest from the public, it should never come at the cost of anyone’s safety,” the spokesperson said.
“Dissemination of these images, given the ways in which they were obtained, encourages a highly intrusive practice that is dangerous to all in involved.”
Shocking news.
