Meghan Markle has made a new bold move to reveal unexpected information related to Charles III. According to sources close to her and her husband, the British king allegedly confiscated his grandchildren's passports, since he was never satisfied with the institutional treatment they currently receive.
The tension between the Dukes of Sussex and the rest of the British monarchy is once again making headlines in the United Kingdom. However, this time, the conflict revolves around a bureaucratic matter that has ended up exposing deeper frictions.
According to reports, this concerns the process of issuing British passports for Meghan Markle's children and Prince Harry, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Sources close to the couple have revealed that the Dukes of Sussex came to suspect that the documents were being withheld. The reason they considered was the inclusion of their children's royal titles in the official applications.
A person close to Meghan Markle and her husband reveals unexpected information about King Charles III
Meghan Markle's two children were officially recognized as prince and princess in 2022, after the proclamation of their grandfather, King Charles III. However, it was not until Lilibet's christening, held in March 2023, that the titles were used publicly for the first time.
Since then, their use has been a particularly sensitive issue. So much so that, according to sources close to the Dukes of Sussex, the process to obtain the British passports lasted for five months.
This delay led Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to consider an unexpected and surprising alternative: using the surname Spencer, in tribute to his mother, Lady Di. This measure would have replaced the Sussex surname that the children currently use.
A source quoted by the British outlet The Guardian once stated that Charles III was never satisfied with the children using the "His/Her Royal Highness" style.
In addition, the source also stated that "the British passports, once created, would be the first and perhaps the only legal proof of the titles" of his grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet.
However, despite the accusations, Buckingham Palace strongly denies that Charles III or his team have interfered in this process. Meanwhile, the British Home Office has chosen not to make any comment on the matter.
Finally, Meghan Markle's children's passports were issued after five months of waiting, although the discontent remains. In fact, it is said that Prince Harry asked his uncle for advice about using the surname Spencer if the titles became a legal obstacle.
In any case, the Dukes of Sussex intend for their children to be able to keep their titles and thus be eligible in the future for a role within the monarchy if they so wish.
