A long distance relationship
In a surprising turn of events, it has been revealed that Meghan Markle, wife of Prince Harry, has placed restrictions on the relationship of her children, Archie and Lilibet, with their grandfather, King Charles III. According to close sources, the children rarely get a chance to interact with their grandfather, as Meghan only allows her children to see the king by video call and for 10 minutes a week. This distance between California and London has affected the family relationship, as the last time the king saw his grandchildren in person was in 2022, during the late Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee.
Concern for the Royal Family
The estrangement between the children and King Charles has caused concern within the British Royal Family. Sources close to the monarch have expressed their commitment to be present in the lives of their grandchildren despite tensions with the Sussexes. The king is deeply committed to his family and wants to maintain a close relationship with his grandchildren, despite the restrictions imposed by Meghan.
Birthday of Lilibet Diana
The recent birthday of Lilibet Diana, who turned 3 last June 4, highlighted the distance between the Sussexes and the Royal Family. Despite the lack of public congratulations from the royal institution’s official accounts, King Charles spoke to his granddaughter on her birthday via a short video call and sent her a gift and a greeting card.
