King Charles reportedly told
Prince Harry that “it wasn’t right” for Meghan Markle to come to Balmoral as
Queen Elizabeth II was dying.
Early Thursday, the
Palace announced that doctors were “concerned” about the
96-year-old’s health and were putting her under “medical supervision.” In
response, members of the royal family rushed to Scotland to be by the monarch’s
bedside in her final moments.
“Charles told Harry that it
wasn’t right or appropriate for Meghan to be in Balmoral at such a deeply sad
time,” a source told The Sun.
“It was pointed out to him that Kate [Middleton] was not going and that the
numbers really should be limited to the very closest family.”
The source added that Prince
Charles – now King Charles III – “made it very, very clear Meghan
would not be welcome.”
As Page Six previously
reported, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were originally planning to
travel together to see the Queen. Half an hour later, news broke that
Harry would actually be traveling solo.
The Queen’s death came just days after the “Suits” alum gave yet another bombshell
interview to The Cut, in which she criticized the royal family and claimed that
“just by existing,” she and Harry were “upsetting the dynamic of the
hierarchy.”
