The Duchess of Sussex Allegedly Rejects Harry’s Plea to Aid the Royal Family During King Charles’ Health Crisis
Meghan Markle is said to have brought Prince Harry to tears after opposing his idea to support the royal family during a difficult time. The Duke of Sussex had reportedly expressed a willingness to temporarily return to royal duties following King Charles’ cancer diagnosis last year.
According to insiders, Harry had suggested taking on a part-time royal role to help his father despite the strained relationship between him and the royal family. However, Meghan reportedly resisted the idea, showing no interest in her husband’s emotional plea.
Royal expert Tom Quinn previously claimed that Harry made the offer “safe in the knowledge it would be rejected” by the Palace, as trust between the Duke and his family had eroded. Meghan, he added, was “absolutely against” the notion of rejoining the royal fold, citing unresolved tensions and “bad blood” within the family.
The Duchess of Sussex has since taken steps toward charting her own path, kicking off 2025 with a solo return to social media through a new Instagram handle. This move, amid ongoing speculation about the couple’s future, underscores Meghan’s focus on independence rather than revisiting her ties to the monarchy.
As Harry’s offer remains a point of contention, the couple appears to be navigating their roles on separate trajectories, highlighting the complexities of their relationship with the royal family.
