King Charles Didn’t Want Prince Harry To Bring Meghan Markle To Balmoral Castle

British Royal family news says that as one of the first decisions he probably made as the new King of England, King Charles III wanted to make sure that Meghan Markle was kept at a distance. In fact, there are new reports that say King Charles wanted Prince Harry to leave his wife behind when he traveled to Balmoral Castle to see Queen Elizabeth one more time before her death. Here’s what you need to know.

King Charles Didn’t Want Prince Harry To Bring Meghan Markle To Balmoral Castle

According to Page Six, King Charles made it pretty clear that he didn’t think it would be appropriate for the Duchess of Sussex to join the other members of the royal family in saying their last good-byes to Queen Elizabeth before her death. Even though it was initially reported that Meghan was supposed to travel to Scotland, a few hours later reports said that Harry would be going on his own. He also ended up several hours later before everyone else.

One source close to the situation said, “Charles told Harry that it wasn’t right or appropriate for Meghan to be in Balmoral at such a deeply sad time. It was pointed out to him that Kate [Middleton] was not going and that the numbers really should be limited to the very closest family.”

On Thursday, the Royal Family shared an announcement via Twitter that said, “The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon. The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.”

Prince William and Harry Reunited

Prince Harry was also the first to leave Scotland on Friday morning, suggesting that there still is a lot of iciness between him and other members of the royal family. Some have speculated that Meghan might have been the reason why Harry was held back in London. He missed his final opportunity to say good-bye to his beloved grandmother.

That said, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did join Prince William and Kate Middleton to greet well-wishers outside the gates of Windsor Castle on Saturday morning. It was the first time that all four royals were reunited since Harry and Meghan pulled the plug on their working relationship with the rest of the royal family.
