Initially, they dubbed them the “Fab Four,” but irreconcilable differences gradually emerged that inevitably drove them apart: William and Kate had a complex relationship with each other Harry and Megan, which ended when the latter made the decision to leave the royal family and fly overseas. And it’s right during their last official event that something happened that should have definitively marked the split between the two couples.
Harry and Meghan, the rudeness on Commonwealth Day
The celebration of Commonwealth Day For a long time it was one of the most important occasions to reunite the royal family. And traditionally, Queen Elizabeth II is the first to make her appearance, followed by all other royal members. William and Harry, accompanied by their wives, shared that honor side-by-side until the 2020 service. Something broke that year. The ceremony, traditionally held on the second Monday in March, took place a few weeks later that year of the announcement that rocked Buckingham Palace from its foundations.
The Megxit, as Harry and Meghan’s decision to step down from their royal role has been renamed, has actually changed the cards on the table. The Queen has made a decision who made it very clear what his nephew’s future would hold on the occasion of Commonwealth Day. Uncovering the background of what happened is the author Robert Laceywho recently published Battle of Brothers, which was about the breakup between William and Harry.
Apparently, Lady Diana’s second son expected it makes his entry into the church behind the Queen, as usual. On the other hand, this would have been his last engagement as a senior royal member. Instead, the unexpected rudeness: he and Meghan were escorted to their seats (one session behind William and Kate) and were unable to attend Her Majesty’s procession. “He had to hold back the tears,” – explained Lacey, referring to Harry’s reaction to the gesture.
Harry and William, a relationship at risk
It could have been the Queen’s decision ruin the now fragile balance which then existed between William and Harry, had not the Duke of Cambridge himself, together with his wife Kate, abandoned the royal procession by entering the church in front of Elizabeth II. So they too took their place without attracting too much attention. However, this was not enough to save the relationship of the two brothers. Also because the difference in treatment who she saw as the protagonist was now visible to all.
“The problem is, that 2,000 service orders They had already been distributed at the abbey, and it said that William and Kate would enter and take part in the procession. No mention, however, to Harry and Meghan”- Lacey revealed. In fact, from that moment began a period of tension that has not yet been resolved. William and Harry, who were once very close, started this lose their beautiful relationshipdespite the efforts of Kate, who always did everything to bring them closer together.
