Harry and Meghan’s Historic Low: Inside the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee
As further details of the belittling treatment dished out to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle during their visit to the UK to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee continued to emerge this week, it has become painfully apparent that relations between Harry and Meghan on one side, and his English family on the other, are at a historic low.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were 50 minutes late to join the procession ahead of the service of Thanksgiving at St Paul's Cathedral last Friday, it has been claimed.
They processed through the nave of the church hand in hand, with Meghan smiling and Harry biting his lip at times.
But royal expert Lady Colin Campbell has since claimed the royal couple purposely arrived late.
Speaking to GB News, Lady Colin Campbell said, they were supposed to be in the bus with all the third tier royals.
They were 50 minutes late for the appointed meeting with Clarence House to make sure they would miss the bus so they would appear later.
Trending:
The processions are done in order of diminishing or increasing rank.
The least important will go first and the most important will go last entering the building and its vice versa leaving the building.
They realised they had been lumped with the never was royals, they decided they were going to be late and miss their slot.
It may just have been the exhaustion of travelling with two jet lagged children, but Harry's thunderous face as he was snapped arriving home off a private jet in California seemed to provide a vivid illustration of his mood after the party that he and his wife were both invited to, and not invited to.
The failure of William to meet personally in private with his brother, and William's family's decision to travel to Cardiff rather than attend Lilibet's first birthday party, is further confirmation, where it needed that the broken relationship between Harry and his brother is far from being healed.
The casual insults dished out to the Sussexes include being banned from taking a photograph of their daughter with her grandmother, a series of conspicuous by their absence non-invitations to any events where they might be pictured alongside him and the failure of any of Harry's immediate family to turn up for Lilibet's birthday party.
As any parent knows, it's when people take it out on your kids that it hurts the most.
Harry and Meghan's impetuous departure from the celebrations early, they left on Sunday shortly before the final event, the Queen's climactic appearance on the Buckingham Palace balcony, irritated the Royals and was perceived by them as an attention seeking display of petulance.
So much for not overshadowing the Queen.
Would it have killed them to wait a few hours?
In related news, Sharon Osbourne shared her thoughts on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's appearance at the Platinum Jubilee and how they were not received warmly by the public.
She admitted, the Royal family has always been like a Shakespearean play for me.
Osbourne then shared that when she saw Sussex, she felt sorry for them.
She also felt bad about how they were seated far from their immediate family inside St. Paul's Cathedral during the Thanksgiving service, saying they were parted from the family.
Osbourne claimed that their treatment at the Platinum Jubilee could have given the couple some regrets over how they left their royal life behind in 2020.
She said, I do feel sorry for him, Prince Harry, because I think that there must be a huge part of him that regrets.
She also referenced the couple's absence from the Buckingham Palace balcony for the Trooping the Colour parade and RAF Flypast.
I mean, can you imagine how he felt with the whole family in that procession and he would have normally been there on one of those horses with his uniform and everything, she explained.
Osbourne said that Prince Harry may have felt sad when he saw Princess George and Louis, and Princess Charlotte on the balcony.
Their appearance may have made him realize that his children Archie and Lilibet are not going to grow up with their cousins.
