Royal Family News: This Is The Reason Why Meghan Markle Didn’t Go To Scotland

According to Page Six, Meghan Markle was left behind in London because she wouldn’t have received the reception that she would have expected from other senior members of the royal family such as King Charles, Prince William, and others. At the same time, Kate Middleton also stayed behind at Windsor to be with her three children, who had just started their first day of school.

BBC royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell said, “She might not be terribly warmly welcomed, to be perfectly candid about it.”

While the Sussexes haven’t said anything about the matter on their end, it’s been noted that Prince Harry arrived to Balmoral significantly later than everyone else. He also was 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.

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.”

The royal was preceded in death by her husband, Prince Philip, who spent more than seven decades supporting the queen. The Duke of Edinburgh, Britain’s longest-serving consort, died in April 2021 at age 99. Elizabeth and Philip were married for more than 70 years and had four children: Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward.

    What I find absolutely astonishing is that Harry and Meghan can try to present themselves as charitable, compassionate and enlightened to such a degree they feel at liberty to lecture the world, but in reality they are so selfishly spiteful, ignorant, uncaring and uncouth to the point that they will assist their elderly, sick and dying relatives into their graves with their last memories of these two uncouth individuals being nothing but spiteful, attention seeking interviews with media channels and outlets seeking to make money on family gossip and pain. For people who think they are so enlightened and clever, when are they going to learn not to continue to hurt people, especially their elderly relatives. Their actions are in complete conflict and contradiction to everything they proclaim to be. Will they learn their lesson this time or will they just put on fake sadness and play the grief card until they regroup and resume their campaign on Meghans father and Charles chasing them both into their deathbeds with stress and worry from slanderous media interviews and dubious tales of their poor treatment. I see plenty of victims in their drama but its not them I see suffering. How can anyone stand in front of a crowd for charity, giving a lecture and speech when just days before they have released a deliberately spiteful and unnecessary attack again on a family who’s matriarch is so frail and unwell. I see no genuine charity, love or compassion in such a person.

    • Gloria Butts

      I agree what Jazz do not think he love his family be cause of Meghan .Just there to get money

      • Christina

        It’s not so much the money, it’s Meghan need to be up front and the center of everyone’s attention! She loves the camera, she is always camera ready! Its so sad that Prince Harry has not wised up to her. Her treatment of her family should have an indication of her personality. No family but mother at the wedding, really your are going to marry a real Prince ? If it was me, I would have family coming out of the wood work!

      • Annette

        Open up your eyes every time somebody dies in the family I don’t care if it’s real or not y’all always holler it’s about money what y’all doing is about money with y’all everything is not about money it’s about feelings how people treat you

        • Annette

          Supposed to be the Royal family

    • Barbara Haneganarbarahanegan@gmail.com

      I agree you know what they say HAPPY WIFE HAPPY LIFE! So sad to have such a devide at this time God bless the the royal family.

    • ruth

      I agree 100% with everything you said. It is a shame what they have done too, and with the royal family. I’m sure it contributed to the Queen’s ill health. Too much stress.

    • Joan

      Well said.

    • Sharon

      I fully agree with you. My thoughts also

    • GLORIA

      I COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT BETTER. THANK YOU.

    • Sherry

      I totally and absolutely agree with you 1,000%. Some day this will call come back to bit there where it hurts the most, I am of the firm belief that what you put out to others will come back to you tenfold. If this does not wake Harry up now, then nothing ever will. Meghan will never be accepted in the royal family again and that is on her totally because of her lies and actions and behavior. Harry knows better, he grew up in the royal family and know just how it works so there is NO sympathy for him ever. Karma will in time take care of them.

    • Patricia

      Well said. A thoughtful and articulate piece. Sadly she has a hold on Prince Harry and he is now destined to live the life that she seems to dictate. What IS there for Prince Harry in America? All his old friends and family are here. I just hope he can live with his conscience when his book comes out, if he has slagged off his family and the land of his birth. Perhaps they are hoping that the book will bring in a few penny’s for his wife’s designer wardrobe.

    • Park Avenue

      Hey,,Jezz. Absolutely spot on.

    • Gapgirl

      Did something happen this week. I just didn’t understand what was going on! Let me jnow

    • SHERYL

      Jazz you are giving 100% credence to the press, where you seem to be getting your info. So much is supposition. You are forgetting Harry and Meagan have been snubbed because she is half black. Snubbed because she is American, inquiries made about the color of their children, invited and then uninvited to events and a smear campaign behind closed doors from the Royal staff much like Diana encountered from the Firm. Harry and Meagan have a right to be upset too. William is stubborn and can be cold and aloof. That’s what I see coming from him now towards his brother.

    • Patricia

      You have managed to be Spot-On with your comments. I think Madam Markle was hoping to be the next Princess Diana, but she didn’t understand that Princess Diana had a heart, and was able to GIVE of HERSELF without seeking any reward’s. I do so hope that Prince Harry is happy, but he doesn’t seem to have that lovely cheeky, happy smile anymore. What IS there for Prince Harry in America? Are any of his school friends there, or his Military friends? We never hear from Prince Harry, it’s all ME,ME,ME from his wife. I find it very sad, but I hope I am wrong, but what does he do all day in Hollywood?

      It wouldn’t surprise me if she didn’t go to Balmoral because, like they stated, she wouldn’t get the warm welcome she feels she deserves. Again, these two make it all about themselves, They are two of the most self absorbed bed and entitled people I’ve ever seen. They want to be ‘celebrities’. MM believed she had hit the jackpot with Harry until she realized they would actually have to work to earn the perks and advantages of being part of the Royal family.
      They also showed their true colors when they did that disgusting interview with Oprah. Like the saying goes, when people tell you who they are believe them.

  • Brenda

    The Qeen was loved by all, except by Megan Markle. She brought shame to the Royal family with the lies of racism. She was fully embraced by the Royal family. Prince Harry believed Megan’s lies. Megan didn’t want to live in Englan. She wanted to live in Woke California and be treated as a Woke victim. She and Harry became disrespected Royals and lied about the Queen’s treatment of Megan and Foolish Harry broke the heart of the Queen. Shame on both Harry for believing Megans lies about the Royal famiily. Megan wanted to be treated like a Royal by the Woke acting community’s. She was not a very good actress. Shame on both her and Harry..

    • Park Avenue

      I was under the impression that FAMILY ONLY was admitted to see The Queen before she passed away.
      Catherine, Camilla, Sophie, Booksbank, Edo, etc were not present.
      Am I wrong???

  • Sharon

    Harry and Megan have made their decision to leave royal life they resigned so they should not be expected to be in the royal life and firm involvement at all. They made their bed now let them sleep in it. Harry left his family He has to live with that decision. Should not be accepted back in. Stay in swamp California. What you deserve

  • Sharon

    I cannot believe Harry let his spiteful selfish wife berate his grandmother the Queen in public or writing. Harry is a disgrace to the royals and should stay away. I for one don’t believe anything they have said about his royal family. Harry will learn too late what a rat she is

    • Sharon

      Megan has driven a mile wide wedge between Harry & his family. She is a class A horrible person with her whining and complaining…..typical entitled person who whines poor me and has the nerve to do it publicly to the world and shame the royal family…..can’t stand her

      • MCuster

        How do you know that what she said about the staff questioning what their child would look like when born?! I am sure they disrespectfully questioned what race it would look like. So who are you to say what is true or lies! Even the staff obviously feel entitled above her and her race! They are english and they are only maids, butlers, and employees. They have no rights to treat her the way they did!

    • Nvr4gt57

      I agree. Both spitefull and conniving people. Harry just goes along with whatever MM says and does. I don’t feel sorry for him.

  • Tim

    Meg Porn selfish narcissistic liar and there only for the money and nothing more
    Where are her none existing two kids??

    • Melissa kopaska

      Love it! Meghan is not aka Princess Diana in no way shape or form! Although she pretends to be but will never hold a candle to Princess Diana so Meghan just give it up

  • Charles

    Nobody likes her thats why she did not go!

  • Robyn

    A while back I said Harry didn’t want to be the one that could have changed things with his Grandmother the Queen. If he didn’t change things it would be to late & then he never would be able to.
    Well his Grandmother the Queen loved these two boys so much and all he did was kick her at her time in need! With the death of Prince Phillip and now with her passing!
    Harry has to live with what he has done and said about The Royal Family! King Charles 111 should cut him & this person he married off at the knees now! I truly hope he does and take their titles from them! No longer Royalty!

    • Park Avenue

      Indeed! If H was so privy to all her “secrets that she didn’t share with anyone else “, why did she not let him know that she had TERMINAL metastatic bone cancer with a very grim prognosis?
      He was in Great Britain for a “Charity close to his heart”, yet couldn’t pop around to see his dying Gran
      It was painfully obvious that she was suffering during Her Platinum Jubilee, yet, he takes off without a backward glance.

      • Jezz

        This is exactly what makes me so angry with these two. Someone has tried to call me a racist but my criticism of Harry and Meghan has nothing to do with race. My issue with them is their hypocrisy. They lecture us about charity but their treatment of elderly, sick and dying people is disgusting. I don’t proclaim to be perfect but I could NEVER treat sick and elderly people like the have and I certainly wouldn’t treat my family like they have done. I don’t think they would get any sympathy at all if it were not for people who obviously dislike the royal family. These people need to take the “royal” out of this and ask themselves how would they really feel if they were witnessing this happening in their own family. I saddens me that elderly grandparents have gone to their graves with spiteful comments exploited by money making media outlets feed by selfish, spiteful grandchildren.

  • Rebecca

    My heart and soul goes out to the Royal family for the loss of a gracious woman! It’s I truly sad that Queen Elizabeth had to go through the heartache of her divided family during her final journey here on this earth. She is now with her beloved husband Philip rejoicing in heaven!

  • Lou

    We will never know what went on behind the scenes nor do I want or need to know. But let’s not forget the way she was to Princess Diana. RIP Queen Elizabeth.

    • Park Avenue

      “What way” to Diana?
      They were nothing but gracious and forgiving to her. Diana was the product of her own imagination.
      No-one “mistreated ” poor Diana. Look, quite frankly, Diana was rude and disrespectful to The Royal Family.
      And now King Charles III took an awful bearing from her vicious attacks about him.

  • Aida

    Social Media needs to ” Stop Speculating” and start reporting real truth as to why Harry left Meghan behind in London. Kate Middleton didn’t go to Scotland either and again Speculating she had to stay behind to take her kids to school! Kate Middleton has Nannies on call to take her children to school.

    Y’all love to beat up Meghan every chance you get. I think it’s disgusting and bad reporting.

  • Brenda

    Megan has been out to bring down the monarchy from the beginning when she realized her role was significantly different from Kate. She deliberately ignored PDA rules for the royals. She needed to be in constant touching of Harry for control. They may truly be in love but I think she needs a controll mechanism over Harry. Kate and William have been married longer, follow Royal protocol and have different roles than Meghan and Harry. They don’t have to prove their love and respect for each other in front of cameras like Megan. Opening a car door for Kate is different from Megan. William is probably used to a footman to assist both of them getting in a car. William is suffering as much if not more than Harry. I don’t feel sorry for the Sussex side. They made this decision. Go back to America and become regular citizens without their titles to get attention. Kate and William are on a different and regimented life to serve and be dutiful to the Royal life and citizens. They are not self serving like the Sussex. They all are human. The press needs to back off and stop starting vicious attacks and gossip.

  • SJ Sands

    I love Meghan Markle and Harry knew that he was marrying a woman from North America.. We are different! He loves her and as is right for him, he tried to protect her. The way she was treated when she needed help was from the palace and the business side. It is not just a royal family. It is a full blown business and institution. It is about the business not the people often. I am tired of all these article because they are not journalism. It is not facts. It is someone’s opinion with some facts sprinkled in. I would prefer some facts and maybe clearly stated opinions. Speculation and opinions presented as facts are irritating.These contribute to so much of our issues in this world.

  • Joyce

    Jezz

    Je mag je mening hebben maar die deel ik niet Meghan word afgeschilderd alsd een kenau en dat is ze beslist niet Om het geld hoeven ze geen contact met de royals en ik zou me maar eens meer verdiepen in hun twee dan zie je ook een andere kant Ze hebben het daar niet gemakkelijk gehad en Meghan was bezat al 10 miljoen van zichzelf. Nee geef mij de sussex fam maar en niet de zo hypocriete engelse royals mnet hun toxic press
