Since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle moved to the United States in 2020 and stepped back from royal duties, the relationship between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and other members of the British royal family has been very strained. While the public feud on ** has intensified, behind the walls of the royal family, plans for what to do with these renegade royals have been quietly worked out – the most important of which is Prince William, who is said to have made a rather ruthless plan for one day ascending to the throne.
Recent reports from royal insiders have lifted the veil on Prince William's alleged secret strategy to firmly establish his authority while banishing troubled Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to the brink of the monarchy indefinitely.
According to a senior court source exclusively to the Daily Express, the future king has made his position very clear – Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are no longer at the heart of the royal family.
"William has always seen Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as a destructive influence, and he believes the monarchy would be stronger without their interference," a source familiar with the matter revealed. ”
He argues that allowing them to return to the news organization would undo all the efforts he and his father, King Charles, have made to modernize the organization and restore its reputation after the Oprah and "Endgame" scandals. ”
The source went on to say that William is very "determined" and that once he ascends the throne, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle should remain outside the inner circle forever and resign from minor roles on the fringe.
They added: "Their feeling is that having Prince Harry and Meghan Markle involved full-time again is going to be a disaster and constant trouble. They just can't be trusted. ”
The Prince of Wales is said to have ensured that his father, now King Charles III, fully endorses this vision of the future. However, it is believed that a slightly more modest approach could help reduce the ongoing **farce, which continues to track every move related to the rift between the royal family and the brothers. However, the strong-willed Prince William is said to believe that complete separation is the only way to establish an orderly succession and prove who is truly responsible for the future.
Behind the gates of the palace, preparations are quietly underway, waiting for the time to come to carry out William's cunning plan. The first phase will reportedly cut off all sovereign grants that will still be used to support Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, effectively removing their Archiwell brand and status permanently. They will then be banned from appearing in any official households**, nor will they be allowed to participate in events such as military parades and Memorial Day.
Royal observers say it would be a huge symbolic snub: removing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from the main line of succession and putting them on the edge. William also intends to prevent Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from staying in royal residences such as Windsor Castle, Kensington Palace or Sandringham Manor for long periods of time, according to people familiar with the matter. The goal is clear – to dispel any lingering expectation that they will still be important members of the royal family.
However, some experts believe that such a draconian approach could further escalate tensions and could backfire.
Historian Professor Victoria Abbitt claimed: "It would be a huge mistake to completely cut off Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. This will only breed more resentment and create larger rifts that may prove to be irreparable in the future. She warned that the monarchy would lose much of the public's goodwill by showing vindictiveness and narrow-mindedness.
But according to sources, the stubborn future king was unmoved, believing that in the long run, it would be beneficial for him to take a firm position early, thereby establishing his sovereign status.
A person familiar with the matter said: "William thinks it was a mistake for his uncle Prince Andrew to continue to be involved and funded, and does not want to repeat the mistake with Prince Harry." "He wanted to send a clear message that when he became king, either listen to him or fuck off. ”
It remains to be seen whether William's cunning plan will succeed in restoring stability or will backfire. But one thing is certain – there is still a long way to go before the wounded brothers can be reconciled. If William becomes king, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may find themselves frozen in the cold forever.
Only time will tell if this ruthless royal power game contributes to the old wounds of the ** family, or creates a new rift of pain between the brothers that will never be repaired. Now, all eyes are on Prince William as he lays the groundwork for decisively dealing with his wayward siblings and sister-in-law. This will be a one-of-a-kind royal chess game.
