More On: William and Kate
Despite living close William and Kate, Harry and Meghan were ignored by the UK royals
According to rumors, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are being ignored by senior members of the royal family, despite the fact that they are residing within a short walk from Harry's brother, Prince William, with whom he was formerly close.
The exiled couple arrived in the United Kingdom on Saturday for a rare visit, with Queen Elizabeth II, 96, and Harry's father, heir presumptive Prince Charles, among those who had no plans to see them, according to the Telegraph.
The most famous is William, 40, who lives about half a mile from Frogmore Cottage, the residence where Harry is residing with his wife in Windsor, according to the UK tabloid.
William already has trust difficulties as a result of his brother and sister-in-previous law's bombshell interviews — and is concerned that any conversations they have would be exploited to further harm him, according to Harry's biographer, Angela Levin.
"They have lost their opportunity of being trusted since the possibility exists that they will utilize any communication," Levin told the UK newspaper.
"It's their own responsibility for greatly exaggerating and being disrespectful," she added of the podcasters from California who were visiting.
The trust concerns make it doubtful that William and his wife, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, will wish to see the couple until Harry's memoir and its expected bombshells are published, she claimed.
"I believe Catherine and William will try to avoid any interaction with Harry and Meghan until they are aware of the contents of Harry's memoirs and their Netflix documentary," Levin told the Sun.
According to the Telegraph, Harry's father and grandmother have no plans to see the couple. Charles is presently staying at his mother's Scottish home, Balmoral, where he has spent the summer due to ongoing health and mobility difficulties.
The trip comes just days after Markle lambasted the royal family once more in an interview with New York magazine's The Cut, which was published on Monday.
The duchess was supposed to speak about gender equality at the opening ceremony of the One Young World summit on Monday, her first appearance in the UK since leaving the royal family.
"I genuinely don't think Meghan is the best person to counsel young people," Harry's biographer, Levin, said on Twitter.
"I don't believe society requires a slew of self-obsessed, callous individuals."
