‘The Sun’ assures family reluctance explains why Duke of Sussex only bid farewell to Elizabeth II at his residence in Scotland
Charles III is said to have pointed out to his son Harry that “it was not right” that Meghan Markle traveled with him to Balmoral to accompany the Queen in her last hours of life. This is reported by ‘The Sun’ newspaper after two days of speculation in British gossip about the reasons why the Duke of Sussex went to the castle alone while his wife was in London. Harry was also the first descendant of Elizabeth II to leave the family estate the morning after her death after completing the first twelve hours of mourning. He was visibly shaken in the back seat of an SUV that took him straight to the airport to fly back to the British capital.
According to this information, the new sovereign told him that it was not appropriate for Meghan to be in Balmoral, which would confirm the first rumors warning that he had not accompanied Harry, knowing he would not be welcome. However, the official version circulating at the time is that she had decided to stay in London out of respect for the royal family’s privacy. The frequency with which Meghan has given interviews and their content, especially in recent weeks, has not gone down particularly well at the House of Windsor.
According to sources quoted by “The Sun,” Carlos called his son, who was with Meghan at the time at Frogmore Cottage, Windsor’s residence, to let him know about the difficult family situation. Charles told Harry it was not right or appropriate for Meghan to be with Balmoral at such a deeply sad time. It was pointed out to him that Kate (his brother William’s wife) would not be going and that the number is really limited. should stay until the immediate family. Charles made it very, very clear that Meghan would not be welcome,” the source said. Apparently Harry was also unable to board the RAF plane that took Prince William and his uncles, Prince Edward and Prince Andrew, to Scotland. In that case, the duke may have previously renounced all his royal privileges.
However, Carlos III did not want to kill the couple in his first speech after the death of the queen. After announcing that William and Catherine became Princes of Wales, the sovereign said: “I also want to express my love for Harry and Meghan as they continue to build their lives abroad”, referring to their decision to settle in America.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced their resignation to Elizabeth II on 20 January 2020 to remain as a first-line member of the Royal Family and have expressed a desire to move their official residence outside the UK and live on their own financial means. The couple has settled in California.
Harry has in any case become the image of lonely pain. The pictures of his terribly sad departure from Balmoral have gone viral. Coincidentally, the duke did not arrive in time for his grandmother’s death. Carlos, 73, and his sister Ana, 72, who were in Scotland, were the only members of the family to say goodbye to the monarch during her lifetime.
Last weekend Elizabeth II hosted Iain Greenshields, moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, in Balmoral, with whom she had lunch on Sunday. The vicar and priest revealed on the BBC that the Queen, very bright and in a good mood, told him how comfortable she felt in Balmoral. They even looked out a window where she briefed him on the beautiful Scottish countryside. “I think that has been a comfort to his family,” the church representative said. She also spoke “very touchingly” about her husband Felipe, how his death “hit her” and the weakness she felt during the funeral.
“She talked about her past, her love for Balmoral, her father, her mother, Prince Philip, horses… very devoted to what happened in the church and also what happened in the country,” he said. Before parting, the two had a deep conversation about faith, “life and where this life leads. In the end, we were talking about eternal life and the resurrection.”
