In an astonishing escalation of the Sussex saga, Meghan Markle’s feisty mother, Doria Ragland, has delivered a scathing ultimatum to the British royals: Let me and my daughter into Buckingham Palace—or else!
The 68-year-old social worker stunned the world with her brave warning issued in a leaked phone call to a Sussex insider, which Meghan reportedly has thrown her weight behind, adding more flames to royal blackmail claims.
The warning comes as Prince Harry begs for reconciliation after being reunited with King Charles III in the UK last Friday, when he demanded a royal honor for his wife. Ragland was responding to an order she claimed Prince William gave, banning Meghan from the premises.
“Doria is angry about how this has all been playing out and is telling friends that she is both the mother of Harry’s wife and the mother of the world’s newest royal baby.
“She has pledged to stand by Meghan no matter how many barriers they put in her way—if it comes down to a legal and public battle, so be it.”
Faced with criticism, the duchess echoed her mother’s defiance, texting confidantes in Britain: “Mom was right—we will not beg for scraps.”
Critics are spinning, describing the duo’s position as “outrageous extortion.” Royal watcher Piers Morgan railed on, X: “Ragland’s turning this into a mob shakedown—enough! #RoyalThreat is trending WW, with critics slamming Meghan for weaponizing her own family against the Crown, including after a recent Diana diss & explosive dinner row with Harry over UK returns. Fans, though, ring their support: “Doria’s a lioness protecting her cub from an elitist institution,” wrote one in a post.
Buckingham Palace is stoic but insiders are murmuring that King Charles is “appalled” and sees it as the last straw in the Sussexes’ “campaign of chaos.”
Harry’s reportedly cracking marriage—with divorce rumors flying—and Doria’s dare will ignite lawsuits or a full Sussex showdown? The monarchy is on the brink.
