Apparently, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry missed their chance to make amends with their royal relatives.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have had a strained relationship with the royal family since their Megxit announcement in 2020.
Prince Harry’s shocking decision to withdraw from Prince Philip’s memorial service has had tongues wagging.
One royal expert, Richard Fitzwilliams, believes that “it is a great pity, it is unfortunate that the crack remains unhealed”.
The decision means the Queen, who is desperate to see her great-granddaughter for the first time, is unlikely to meet Lilibet in person.
A spokesman for the Duke of Sussex confirmed on Friday that he will not be leaving his Montecito mansion to attend his grandfather’s Thanksgiving Service, which will be held at Westminster Abbey on March 29.
Harry and Meghan could use the occasion to reconcile with the royal family despite holding several high-profile interviews in which they spoke negatively about their royal relatives alongside Harry’s recent book announcement.
