King Charles III and his cancer treatment
The British monarch, Charles III, is currently at his country residence in Sandringham, Norfolk, after beginning his cancer treatment. During this difficult period, he has received support from his family, including Queen Camilla and other prominent members of the Royal Family, who have visited him at home. However, controversy has arisen surrounding Meghan Markle’s absence from these family gatherings, despite the king’s critical health situation.
The personal communication of King Charles III
Before King Charles III’s illness was revealed to the public, the monarch chose to personally communicate his state of health to his siblings and children. In a quick gesture of solidarity, Prince Harry acted without delay and booked the first available flight from Los Angeles to London. He boarded a night flight of British Airways, with a duration of eleven hours.
Prince Harry’s arrival in London
On arrival at Heathrow Airport in London, an official car was waiting to take him immediately to Clarence House, his father’s residence. After traveling all night, he arrived in the UK just in time for lunch. There, he held a brief meeting with his father, which lasted around 45 minutes, thus marking his first face-to-face meeting since the coronation ceremony of Charles III last May 6, 2023.
The controversy surrounding Meghan Markle
Charles III, adamant in his rejection of Meghan Markle, even in times of illness. Although the details of the meeting have not been revealed, it is speculated that one of the topics discussed was the possibility of Harry’s children, Archie and Lilibet, visiting their grandfather during these difficult times. However, a significant obstacle emerged: Charles III’s staunch opposition to seeing Meghan Markle. The King has made it clear that under no circumstances does he want Meghan to be present, even at the risk of her own life. He considers the former actress to be mainly responsible for the distance between Harry and the royal family, and he is not ready to make concessions on this matter. Despite the seriousness of his illness, Charles III remains firm in his position.
An uncertain future for Meghan Markle
The monarch does not wish to even hear Meghan’s name in the Palace, as the association with her brings him unpleasant memories and resentment for the current situation of his family. Despite the sadness he may feel due to the distance from his son, Charles III will not give in on what he considers a matter of principle and loyalty to the British Crown. Despite the difficult situation, Charles III continues to hope to reunite his family in these difficult times and make up for lost time. However, his insistence on keeping Meghan away could complicate his wishes for family unity. Meghan Markle may never earn her father-in-law’s forgiveness, but Prince Harry will always be welcomed with open arms.
