“Lilibet and Archie should know their grandfather”: Meghan Markle wanted to bring the children closer to the king 18.04.2023, 07:10

The disgraced couple of the British monarchy settled in the United States after resigning their royal powers. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry live at their Montecito estate with 3-year-old Archie and 1-year-old Lilibet. The couple’s son was born in Great Britain, their daughter was born in California.

The new king Charles III. he saw his “American” grandchildren only a few times. Meanwhile, the Duchess of Sussex wanted to put all differences aside so that the children, who were recently given the titles of prince and princess by the monarch, could communicate with the crowned grandfather. “The Duchess wants to end the drama between her and the royal family for Archie and Lilibet’s future,” the insider said.

The former American actress refused to attend Charles’ coronation on May 6. Prince Harry will go to the UK alone, Meghan and the children will stay in Montecito. The source explained the decision. “Meghan hopes they will meet and hopes her behavior will be seen as selfless, as attending the coronation could best attract His Majesty’s attention. Meghan’s intention to skip the celebration was to avoid further drama. He doesn’t want any more controversy. The Duchess wants her children to know their grandfather Karl, especially given that they don’t know their other grandfather Thomas Markle,” said a close wife of Prince Harry.

The former actress became estranged from her father after photos and details of her were leaked to the media after her engagement to the prince became public. In the future, relations in the Markle family escalated even more. Meghan worries that her and Harry’s children don’t know what their grandfather’s love is.“She really doesn’t want this intimate moment of childhood emotion to happen in front of the public,” an insider told OK.

Buckingham Palace sources are confident that Harry will have the opportunity to personally interact with his father and older brother William during the visit. They believe that in the absence of Meghan Markle, the disgraced prince will be more likely to resolve any differences with relatives and perhaps reconcile with them. The visit of the Duke of Sussex to his father’s coronation will benefit the brand with a royal touch, which he and Meghan are promoting so strongly in Hollywood.
