Prince Harry and Meghan Markle apologise for ‘slavery’, says Royal expert

Meghan Markle reportedly stepped in to save Prince Harry from a potential misstep during their trip to Colombia. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were questioned about the Royal Family’s history of slavery while on their South America tour, and it was Meghan who helped them navigate the situation without incident.

Speaking to GB News, royal expert Angela Levin shared insights into the incident: “What was being very, very difficult to understand or to accept was that Harry was asked if he would apologise about the slaves… he hasn’t any understanding to do that. If by any chance [that] he does – or did – we can’t tell because they didn’t have any sound, you can’t hear.”

Levin further speculated that Meghan played a crucial role in managing the situation. “I imagine Meghan wanted to keep control and Harry didn’t want any journalist to know exactly what he was saying… there was no volume. So you couldn’t actually find out what they were doing, but this was asked, it was heard, and you don’t know what he said. If he wants to take on that and say something about it, it’s going to be very, very difficult for the King.”

The incident underscores the complexities Prince Harry faces as he navigates his post-royal life. Since leaving the Royal Family in 2020, Harry and Meghan have frequently been in the spotlight, particularly after making public allegations of racism within the royal institution. The couple, who now reside in California with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, have been outspoken about their experiences, which has often put them at odds with the British monarchy.

As Prince Harry continues to balance his new life with his royal past, moments like these highlight the challenges and sensitivities involved. Meghan’s intervention in Colombia serves as a reminder of the delicate situations they often find themselves in, and the potential repercussions that could arise from their actions or statements.
