A few influential people are still in the way of Prince Harry and his bride Meghan Markle returning to England and the royal fold, despite their recent legal victory in the fight to have his U.K.-funded police security reinstated.
Examiner can reveal that Princess Anne has been subtly influencing events behind the scenes at Windsor Castle, assisting Prince William and Queen Camilla in preventing the Sussexes from returning and pushing King Charles III to forbid the 44-year-old Suits actress from entering
“Anne doesn’t tend to interfere or get involved with family politics all that often,” reveals an insider, “so when she does speak up and offer her opinion, it counts for a lot.”
While the Princess Royal, 75, has not always seen eye-to-eye with William, 43, the insider says when it comes to Meghan, she agrees with her nephew’s take. “[Anne] says it’s madness that Charles would countenance any type of reconciliation or forgiveness,” adds the insider, “let alone allow this upstart anywhere near them.”
As Examiner has previously reported, William has urged his father to cut ties with Harry, 41, and Meghan, with a source claiming the future king feels the Sussexes are “shamelessly taking advantage” of his 77-year-old father’s goodwill.
He isn’t the only one.
“If Meghan does decide to come back to the U.K. and finds herself in the same room with [Anne or Camilla, 78], she’ll get extremely short shrift,” shares the insider, “which is just about the most fearsome combination imaginable!”
