Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's reported plan to renew their wedding vows is a "blow you" to the Royal family, an expert has claimed.

Is this part of an attempt at an alternative Royal Family?” Levin tweeted Monday. “Odd time otherwise before H’s ‘bombshell’ memoir.““[Meghan] doesn’t like losing [and] feels enormous bitterness and resentment towards the royal family for not letting her modernize [it].”“Surely if anyone is scared for their safety, they should keep what they are doing and where secret.

Meghan Markle was reportedly left in “shock” by some of the intimate details about Prince Harry ’s life, which have been laid bare in the royal’s upcoming memoir.The claims were made by a source close to the pair amid an ongoing scramble for publishers to get the book out and on shelves ahead of the Thanksgiving and Christmas shopping rush in the United States.The explosive memoir will, as per the Duke of Sussex’s own admission, touch upon the "experiences, adventures, losses and life lessons that have helped shape him" over the past four decades of his life. It is thought this deeper look at his own history and the moments that shaped him will teach the royal’s wife a lot more about him than she had originally known.
Meghan Markle isn't the only actress in the royal family. Indeed, The Firm's extended family is so expansive that you may not know that the mum of one of Prince George and Princess Charlotte's cousins is a TV star.
Meghan Markle is reportedly concerned that her and Prince Harry’s upcoming trip to Balmoral could “pull at his heartstrings”.The couple dropped their roles as working royals in early 2020 and moved to California to start a new life. However, staff are now said to be preparing for the couple - alongside their children Archie and Lillibet - to visit the Queen at Balmoral in Scotland later this year.The visit could see the Duke, 37, and Duchess, 41, spend time with her majesty, 96, - who recently led tributes to her great grandson Prince George on his birthday - at her Scottish estate during the summer when other senior royals are not around.
Meghan Markle is celebrating her 41st birthday — and so far, the Duchess of Sussex has had a busy year made fit for a royal. How did it all begin? The former American actress became a member of the British royal family when she married Prince Harry in May 2018 at Windsor Castle.The couple welcomed a son named Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor in 2019.

Now Meghan's half sister Samantha is suing the Duchess for $75,000 after calling these claims "humiliating". But the Duchess of Sussex's lawyers argue that her account was not meant to be "objective fact" rather a subjective statement of her own feelings.
