Meghan Markle's "solo interview" has caused changes to her trip to the UK with Prince Harry.
Marie Claire magazine has reported for several months that the Royal Family is frustrated about Prince Harry's memoir, which is due out by the end of the year. However, the latest frustration between the Sussex family and the Royal Family is knowing exactly what Meghan Markle's recent interview with The Cut magazine was about. (According to OK!, Meghan "denies the royal ceremony, claims she is 'happy' to leave the UK with Harry, and seems to blame them [the royal family] for the rift.")
In the aftermath of the publication of last week's article, changes have been made to Harry and Meghan's return to the UK, according to OK!" Markle's bombshell new interview with the Queen, Prince Charles, Prince William and Kate Middleton, and senior palace staff will not take place," the outlet reports.
According to a top advisor, "Everyone is afraid to be around them. Anything we say could end up on the cover of an American magazine. We were all eagerly awaiting the release of Harry's book. No one knew that Princess Meghan would make the first move herself. The chance to meet the family is gone."
Other changes in the UK this time around include, "Harry and Meghan's team must approve all press invitations (to the three events they will attend this week in both the UK and Germany). Not a single member of the media will be allowed unless Harry and his wife's people approve," says one source. In addition, "security at each event has been tightened in response to the backlash over Meghan's comments in the UK."
Also, in contrast to the couple's June visit, which was banned, the Netflix cameras will likely accompany them this time.
"It is highly likely that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will bring production crews to Germany and the UK in the coming weeks," says royal commentator Nathalie Oliveri. 'After all, no restrictions have been imposed by the royal family on what can and cannot be filmed during this visit.'
Olivieri noted that since the trip (the couple will start the week in the UK, fly to Germany for their engagement, and return to the UK by the end of the week) has nothing to do with the monarchy, "no such rules will be enforced on the Sussexes and they expect things to be very different."
He added: "The Sussexes are not a monarchy.
