King Charles appears to be fuming over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s supposed royal takeover.
After the Duke and Duchess of Sussex visited Nigeria earlier last month in a ‘royal-like’ tour for a future Invictus Games, the monarch is said to be “angrier than anyone has ever seen him,” according to royal author Tom Quinn. However, what really infuriated that King was that Harry and Meghan were actually treated like royalty at the visit, Quinn explained to The Mirror.
“What’s really upset the applecart is the fact that the Nigerians treated Meghan and Harry as if they too thought this was an official tour – all the signs were there as the couple were greeted with dances, receptions, visits to schools and charities,” he told the outlet. Quinn also added that Prince William is furious with the tour as it “confirmed the worst fears” to him and his father.
“It’s as if Harry and Meghan have gone rogue – their Nigeria trip is a bold statement that they refuse to accept they are no longer working royals,” Quinn continued. He also alluded that the royals appear to be struggling to damage control. “William and Charles are scratching their heads and thinking, ‘How are we going to control this nightmare situation?’” he surmised.
