King Charles III’s slimmed-down monarchy has caused a “huge void” in the British royal family’s “lineup,” according to a royal author. What was supposed to include the “strongest” members of the Windsor family now is a “limp” showing. Ahead, the “crisis” the royal family’s been dealing with since before the king and Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnoses. Plus, who is on the list of working royals.
The slimmed-down monarchy has left a ‘huge void’ in the ‘lineup’ of British royals
According to Omid Scobie, a royal commentator and author, King Charles’s slimmed-down monarchy isn’t the one he originally intended. In fact, far from it.
Instead of a “strong” showing, what’s left is a “huge void in the royal lineup,” he told ABC News Studio’s Impact x Nightline: The Crown in Crisis (via UsWeekly).

According to reports, Meghan Markle has cut ties with her siblings and father after tying the knot with Prince Harry in 2018. While she hasn’t been on speaking terms with her father Thomas Markle, as well as her brother, Thomas Markle Jr., and sister Samantha Markle, Meghan’s dad recently pointed out a very “cruel” family snub from the Duchess of Sussex.
Meghan Markle’s Issues With Her Siblings
Thomas Jr. and Meghan reportedly haven’t been on speaking terms for over a decade. The family feud between the two has recently been re-ignited as Meghan’s brother repeatedly hits her with insults online.
Meanwhile, Samantha launched a libel suit against her sister for an interview Meghan conducted in 2021 with Oprah Winfrey.
Still, the case was dismissed by a Tampa, Florida judge as Samantha “failed” to identify any statements that supported her claim.

To go or not to go, that’s the question. Will Meghan Markle decide to join Prince Harry for the 10-year anniversary of the Invictus Games or stay home? Her name’s reportedly penciled in on the guest list at the May 2024 service. An expert says the Duchess of Sussex, 42, whatever she decides, has to consider it through multiple “lenses.” Spoiler: It’s not as easy as whether or not Meghan wants to make the nearly 11-hour flight.
Meghan’s attendance would bring publicity to the Invictus anniversary and show her and Harry as a ‘united front’
Since reports of the Invictus Games service at St. Paul’s Cathedral surfaced, there’s been the question of whether or not Meghan and the Sussex children will attend alongside the Duke of Sussex. Meghan’s believed to have the final say on Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s attendance.)

In 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s royal family exit set the tone for what the couple called their freedom from the House of Windsor. Then, they were parents to just Prince Archie and have since welcomed daughter Lilibet Diana. As they grow older, a royal expert believes Meghan is “terrified” her kids will “blame her” for cutting them off from the royal family. Here’s why.

Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, have two rarely-seen children, Archie and Lilibet.
On many of their trips and outings, Harry and Meghan seem to leave the children at home, and fans are clamoring to see more of them.
The kids were left out of Harry and Meghan’s latest Christmas card, as reported by Monsters and Critics. Fans were not happy because they wanted to see the cute children.
Over the Valentine’s Day week, the couple traveled to Canada for an Invictus Games event without the children, and their Jamaica trip was sans kids as well.
The last update the public had about the kids was during Harry’s interview with Good Morning America during the event in Canada. Harry told ABC News reporter Will Reeve, “The kids are growing up like all kids do—very, very fast.”

Before I knew her as Archie Bunker's little girl Gloria on "All in the Family," I knew Sally Struthers as Rebecca Cunningham on "TaleSpin." A loving single mom and ambitious businesswoman whose outspoken personality belied her petite build, Rebecca -- aka "Becky," "Beckers," and the many other nicknames her responsibility-skirting, party-loving employee Baloo would use to refer to her -- was but one of many reasons to love the "Jungle Book"-inspired animated pulp period adventure series and Disney Afternoon staple. After years of trying (and failing) to keep the peace between her stubbornly conservative dad and her liberal, holier-than-thou husband Michael as Gloria in "All in the Family," Struthers was an expert in the art of sounding flustered, a talent that served her well on "TalepSpin."

Princess Diana was the royal family’s most popular member, a spokeswoman for important issues, and a devoted mother to Prince William and Prince Harry. However, she had one ultimate dream that her daughter-in-law, Kate Middleton, has since realized.
Princess Diana’s ultimate dream went unmet
The Mirror quotes formal royal butler Paul Burrell, who worked for Princess Diana for 10 years. Burrell was quoted in the 2017 Amazon documentary The Diana Story, that one of her ultimate dreams went unrealized.
Burrell explained of Diana’s crushing reality, “To have a baby girl in the family would have made everything for Diana.” His statement piggybacks on Diana’s remarks to author Andrew Morton in the book Diana: Her True Story.
Diana told Morton that she knew her second child, Prince Harry, would be a boy before giving birth. However, she didn’t tell Prince Charles since he had always hoped for a daughter.

Meghan Markle reportedly thinks Prince Harry “can’t trust” Prince William, 41, as he pushes for a reunion with his brother and sister-in-law, Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Sussex thinks her husband, the Duke of Sussex, is “naive,” and her main concern is him once again getting “hurt.”

Meghan, according to Ok! Magazine, is fine with the idea of not having the Prince and Princess of Wales in her life. A previous report claimed Meghan feels Kate should’ve had her “back” as a royal “outsider.”
However, with Harry it’s a different story. He reportedly wants to reconnect with his brother and sister-in-law, and Meghan’s skeptical of the whole situation.

Prince Harry doesn’t have Meghan Markle’s support in “reaching out” to Prince William and Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Sussex reportedly thinks the Duke of Sussex is waging a “losing battle” by contacting his brother and sister-in-law, the Prince and Princess of Wales, amid years of strained relationships. Instead, the American Riviera Orchard founder sees things as unchanged.

Right now two of the monarchy’s most beloved members, his father King Charles and his sister-in-law Princess Catherine, are undergoing cancer treatment.
The ranks of senior working royals is rather thin as a result but Harry believes he can singlehandedly save the institution he has spent four years tearing down. Who thinks like this?
Royal author Christopher Andersen told Hello! Canada that clueless Harry is “eager to return to London and help take up some of the slack now that the medical issues of the king and the Princess of Wales have thrown the monarchy into a state of crisis.” He’s the main character.

Prince Harry has been publicly critical of the paparazzi for years. However, the Duke of Sussex appears to have been photographed more now as a U.S. resident alongside his wife, Meghan Markle, than he ever was in the United Kingdom. A commentator believes Harry’s embracing the spotlight even more now that their $100M contract with Netflix requires them to do so.
Prince Harry once said paparazzi ‘make my blood boil’: is this still true?
In a column for News.com.au, royal commentator Daniela Elser asks, “Of the two princes [William and Harry], one of whom bailed on Blighty because of his and his wife’s treatment at the hands of the swinish UK press, guess which one has been trailed all over Palm Beach Florida by photographers?” Elser revealed its Prince Harry, filming scenes in Florida for his and Meghan Markle’s Netflix polo-themed nonfiction series.

There wasn't a more popular or influential (or controversial) sitcom in the 1970s than "All in the Family." Created by Norman Lear, the series was a stingingly hilarious satire of American attitudes as the country adjusted to the post-Civil Rights Movement era and coped with the increasingly unpopular Vietnam War.
The genius of "All in the Family" was Lear's ability to make every single one of his main characters behave ridiculously without becoming full-on caricatures. Archie Bunker (Carroll O'Connor) was an unrepentant bigot, his wife Edith (Jean Stapleton) was a well-meaning ditz, his daughter Gloria (Sally Struthers) was a work-in-progress idealist who went from dopey to fairly sharp as the series progressed, and his son-in-law Michael "Meathead" Stivic represented everything Archie hated about liberals in one preachy package.

We all remember when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, decided to sit down with Oprah Winfrey for a primetime special one year after stepping down as working royals.
During their televised sitdown with Oprah in 2021, the duke and duchess detailed what they claimed happened while they were senior members of the Firm and leveled a series of allegations against the royal family. The Palace later responded with a brief statement saying: “recollections may vary.”
It’s now being reported that in the years since Prince Harry has come to regret doing the interview, however, his wife does not. And according to a royal author, that has caused some friction between the couple.

Remember Omid Scobie’s Endgame book, the royal commentator and author’s latest title that hit shelves in November 2023? The one the British royal family is said to have considered taking legal action against when it named names? Well, the allegations in the book reportedly prompted Kate Middleton to call Meghan Markle and “clear the air.”
Kate called Meghan to ‘ease the tension’ after the release of ‘Endgame’ when Prince William refused
Before speculation surrounding the Princess of Wales’ surgery or King Charles III’s cancer diagnosis, the biggest thing happening in the world of the royal family, at least in late 2023, was Endgame.
The book shared new details on major events of recent years, such as the day of Queen Elizabeth II’s death and, most notably, royals accused of racism.
Not long after the allegations surfaced, Kate contacted Meghan to “clear the air,” a source claimed in an Ok!

Meghan Markle had critical words for female online bullies who targeted her while she was pregnant, saying their comments were “not catty, it’s cruel” — and also took aim at the big tech platforms that hosted those posts.
Addressing the keynote panel at the opening day of the 2024 SXSW conference, the Duchess of Sussex addressed online toxicity that had been directed toward her.
“I keep my distance from it right now for my well-being, but the bulk of the bullying and abuse I was experiencing in social media and online was when I was pregnant with Archie and with Lili, and with a newborn, with each of them,” she told the packed audience that included her husband, Prince Harry, who was sitting front row.

Katie Couric, also on the panel, cited stats that social media’s impact on young women is on par with binge drinking in terms of spikes in suicide rates. “We have a real crisis on our hands here,” said the former Today Show and CBS Evening News anchor.
“The toxicity that comes at you, yes, social media is an environment that has a lot of that,” said Markle.

There have been several reports lately that Prince Harry will be making a trip to the U.K. soon and wants his wife, Meghan Markle, to travel with him. The Duchess of Sussex hasn’t been back in England since 2022 and when Harry told Good Morning America that he had more trips planned to go back home, he didn’t specify if Meghan would be with him or not.
But when and if the former Suits star does return, many members of Harry’s family likely won’t be welcoming her with open arms. And because of that, a royal commentator is claiming only three royals will agree to see Meghan when she’s in town.
Commentator claims Meghan will only be able to see 3 royals when she’s in the U.K. Princess Eugenie at Royal Ascot with Princess Beatrice, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and King Charles | Samir Hussein...

Meghan Markle has not always been on the best terms with the royal family. While the Duchess of Sussex had a close relationship with certain royals, like Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Eugenie, her connection never blossomed with many of the family members. According to Meghan and Prince Harry, she wasn’t protected from the press, and her mental health wasn’t taken seriously.
Now that Meghan has been living in the United States and has her own projects — including her podcast series, Archetypes — she likely feels a lot freer. And one ending remark on an Archetypes podcast episode has an expert thinking it was a dig at the royal family.

Prince Harry has only brought his children to the United Kingdom once since he and Meghan Markle stepped back from their roles as senior working royals. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex departed the royal family officially in March 2020 and have been living in the United States ever since.
But now, court documents reveal that Harry and Meghan actually did intend to bring their kids on another little vacation to the UK back in September 2022 — Queen Elizabeth II’s death changed those initial plans, but it was the lack of security that reportedly forced Harry to leave his children behind.

Prince Harry returned to the spotlight, albeit briefly, to give an interview in Canada while marking one year to the 2025 Invictus Games. The Duke of Sussex made headlines for what he said — more on that ahead — but, as for why he stepped in front of the camera, a royal author has shared their own theory. It has to do with the ongoing royal family rift and playing a certain “role.”
Harry seized the ‘mature’ role in the February 2024 interview
On Feb. 16, 2024, the last day of Harry and Meghan Markle’s Canada trip promoting the 2025 Invictus Games, the duke’s Good Morning America interview aired. Speaking to the U.K.’s Mirror, royal author Tom Quinn shared why he felt Harry agreed to the interview.

Meghan Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, spend much time vacationing together like any married couple.
Recently, the couple were in Jamaica for a film premiere and were photographed together. They went to see the Bob Marley: One Night in Kingston movie, with social media calling it a “date night.”
Then they went on a whirlwind Valentine’s Day trip to Canada- part work, part play. The couple went to see the athletes that will play in the Invictus Winter Games next year. The dates of the trip coincided with Valentine’s Day, and hopefully, Meghan and Harry got some couple time in, too.
Prince Harry is also fine traveling alone without Meghan, as he just did to see his cancer-stricken father, King Charles. It is Meghan’s time to solo it, but not for work or family.

Meghan Markle hasn’t always been shown so positively in the spotlight. The Duchess of Sussex has been trying to live a more private life since she stepped down from her working royal role alongside her husband, Prince Harry, in 2020. However, somehow, Meghan has still found herself embroiled in the media.
But actually, the duchess might be more relatable than we ever thought. A recent interaction between Kelly Clarkson and one of Meghan’s friends might prove that Harry’s wife is far more ordinary than people give her credit for.

London’s calling Prince Harry’s name. The Duke of Sussex reportedly wants to return to the U.K. for a special milestone, the 10-year anniversary of the Invictus Games. Unlike his quick visit to see King Charles III, however, it doesn’t look like Harry will be traveling alone. “Talks” are already underway between him and the U.K. government to bring Meghan Markle and their two children.

It seems things are in the works for a Sussex family trip to the U.K. Per an Ok! Magazine report, Harry’s in the midst of “government-led talks” to arrange a trip for him, the Duchess of Sussex, and their two children, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2.

Prince Harry has made a number of trips to the United Kingdom since he stepped down as a working royal in 2020 alongside his wife, Meghan Markle. Harry and Meghan have been living in California for the last four years, but many of Harry’s return trips home have actually been due to court appearances.
The prince recently lost a legal battle against the UK’s Home Office for stripping the prince of his taxpayer-funded security — but now, he reportedly plans to appeal the ruling.

After meeting with Prince Harry for less than a half hour in early February 2024, King Charles is reportedly rolling out the royal family’s “secret weapon” to handle lingering issues with his second son. He is hopeful the no-nonsense attitude of his sister, Princess Anne, will end the drama once and for all.

Prince Harry, an American citizen? It’s certainly a possibility, a leading family lawyer has said. The discussion comes after the Duke of Sussex revealed in a February 2024 interview he’s “considered” the idea. Chances are that a lengthy legal battle ensues, taking the Duke of Sussex’s case to the Supreme Court. Furthermore, Harry could become an “underdog” in the process.
