Queen Elizabeth is allegedly furious at Prince Harry for going back on his promise to not share intimate details about the royal family.
According to Star, the Queen is accusing Prince Harry of going back on his word after learning about the upcoming release of Finding Freedom: Harry and Meghan and the Making of a Modern Royal Family in August.
Prince Harry allegedly told his grandmother that the goal of the book is to set the record straight. However, the 94-year-old monarch is still less than impressed.
This isn’t the first time that the Queen became upset with Prince Harry. According to Express, the Duke of Sussex’s relationship with the monarch has been strained since his royal wedding preparations began in 2018.
In an article for Vanity Fair, royal author Katie Nicholl said that Prince Harry got into an argument with a senior royal aide over the tiara that Meghan Markle wanted to wear to her royal wedding.
After the Queen learned about the feud, she reportedly called Prince Harry to give him a rare dressing down. According to royal author Robert Jobson, the rejection led the Duke of Sussex to tell the other royals that what Meghan wants, Meghan gets.
During the Queen and Prince Harry’s conversation, the former reminded the latter that Markle needs to think about how she speaks to staff members. The Queen also reminded the couple to follow family protocols.
The Queen also told Prince Harry that Markle cannot just have whatever she wants. Rather, she will get to wear the tiara that the Queen would lend to her.
Prince Harry also told the Queen that Markle wanted to a wear wedding veil, but the monarch initially refused. After all, the Duchess of Sussex’s wedding to Prince Harry was her second time walking down the aisle. But on her wedding day, she was still allowed to wear a veil.
The Queen also countered Prince Harry and Markle’s desire to live in a suite of rooms at Windsor Castle. However, the royal couple was told that this cannot happen because Windsor Castle is the Queen’s home.
And on Prince Harry and Markle’s son Archie’s christening, the Queen also became upset. After all, the royal couple didn’t give the details of the christening ahead of time. As such, the Queen was unable to attend the event.
Two years after Prince Harry and Markle tied the knot, they announced their bombshell exit from the royal family.
