According to reports, Meghan Markle was ‘not satisfied’ with the Royal Family’s approach to racial discrimination issues.
After the couple’s explosive encounter with Oprah Winfrey, it is believed that the Duchess of Sussex sent official mail.
One of the greatest talking points in the interview was when Prince Harry and his wife stated that a senior royal had questioned the skin color of their baby boy. This was Prince Harry and his wife’s first significant interview since they decided to stop being working royals.
The couple’s disdain at “concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born” sent shockwaves through the British monarchy.
The King is thought to have been the sole senior family member to get in touch with Meghan after the interview, and Meghan thanked him for his reaction.
The Duchess, according to a source, didn’t “receive a satisfactory response to her concerns,” and it is thought to have played a part in her decision to skip the Coronation.
the letters “make clear the identity of the senior member of the family who made the comment,” the source continued.
The King and Meghan reportedly acknowledged the comment was not made maliciously.
They also said that Meghan’s concerns at the allegedly poor response played a role in her decision to skip the Coronation on May 6, according to The Telegraph.
Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, whose fourth birthday falls on the same day as the Coronation, will be staying with Meghan and her son.
The Duke of Sussex “would have deeply regretted” missing it, an insider told The Mirror, and the King is “delighted” that Harry chose to visit the UK for the event.
But a royal analyst claimed that Meghan’s choice to skip the Coronation makes her views toward the Royal Family “obvious,” according to expert Daniela Elser’s news.com.au article.
“Their choice to let Meghan to stay might have major consequences, not least for their Sussex titles.
“She is making her opinion in respect to the institution pretty darn plain by choosing not to go, to not show her support for her father-in-law, to not be there for one of the biggest moments for the monarchy in the better part of a century.
“Meghan appears to be taking an abundantly crystal clear stance on what kind of relationship, i.e., pretty much none, she wants to have with her husband’s family.”
