Meghan Markle Requests One-to-One Meeting with King Charles to Heal Rifts
After the Queen's funeral, Meghan Markle is said to have requested a private meeting with King Charles to clear the air and heal any rifts before she and Harry depart for California.
Entertainment correspondent Neil Sean, who has appeared on NBC News, MSNBC, and Access Hollywood, claims to have heard from a reliable source that the American actress sent a letter requesting the private conversation with the King.
According to Mr Sean, Meghan wants to clear the air amid reports that the couple will fly back to the US as soon as possible to see their children, Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 1.
The Sussexes are believed to be in Windsor today after the extraordinary state funeral and burial of the Queen yesterday.
“She'd now like before they return back to California to have a one-to-one audience with King Charles III,” Sean said in a video posted to YouTube, which has recorded nearly 300k views.
“That's right, Meghan wants a one with King Charles.

You heard correctly.
It's a very brave move from Meghan herself.”
Detailing the content of the letter, Sean said it would be an opportunity to clear the air, pull the rights from wrongs and explain some of the rationale behind what they've been doing over the last two years.
“Now, you know, you have to admire Meghan's self-belief, whatever you think.”
However, Sean warned it remains unclear if the letter will be enough for the couple to make amends with the Royal Family.
“Truthfully, we have no idea if this is going to go forward.”
Sean said it was customary to request the King's presence through a letter.
“This is how you write to the King through his equerry, and of course that's passed on,” he told his YouTube channel.
Yesterday, Prince William and Harry put aside their feud for a united front to remember the monarch, and again showed that they could at least be on speaking terms as they interacted with each other in the chapel at Windsor Castle.
William was seen walking to the end of the pew while holding back his son Prince George next to wife Kate Middleton and daughter Princess Charlotte, as he beckoned for Harry and Meghan to walk past them.
Harry and Meghan then took their seats, with the Duke of Sussex sitting next to Charlotte.
Kate was sat in between Charlotte and George, with the nine-year-old Prince next to William who was on the end of the pew.
While William and Harry have put aside their disagreements for royal events in recent days, fears over the content of Harry's upcoming memoir continue to cast a cloud over their relationship, especially following the bombshell interview he and Meghan gave to Oprah Winfrey in March 2021 when they accused an unnamed royal of racism.
Rumours of a rift between the brothers first emerged in 2019 when they divided their households following various disagreements about Harry's role.
However, their feud deepened amid the fallout from the Megxit saga in 2020.
