Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Nigeria Trip Sparks Royal Fury

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have given a major indication that they may have “gone rogue” and are refusing to accept their status as non-working royals, according to an expert.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex famously stepped down as working royals in 2020, a move that led to Harry being stripped of several royal roles. However, their recent trip to Nigeria has reportedly left King Charles and Prince William “absolutely furious.” Some have described the visit as an unofficial royal tour, exhibiting many hallmarks of official engagements.

Harry and Meghan traveled to Nigeria to promote the Invictus Games, but their weekend trip has sparked significant criticism. Royal author and commentator Tom Quinn revealed that there is anger within the royal circles, as Meghan and Harry’s speeches, their visits, and the receptions they attended were all “designed to give the impression that they are still fully paid-up royals”, told Express.

“William is absolutely furious and determined to find a way to stop this happening in the future,” Quinn told reporters. “Charles is said to be angrier than anyone has ever seen him. What’s really upset the applecart is the fact that the Nigerians treated Meghan and Harry as if they too thought this was an official tour. All the signs were there as the couple were greeted with dances, receptions, and visits to schools and charities.”

Quinn suggested that there had been ongoing concerns within the Royal Family about the Sussexes’ potential actions, and their trip to Nigeria “has confirmed their worst fears.”

“It’s as if Harry and Meghan have gone rogue, and their Nigeria trip is a bold statement that they refuse to accept they are no longer working royals,” Quinn explained. “William and Charles are scratching their heads and thinking, ‘How are we going to control this nightmare situation?'”

He further commented on the nature of the visit: “Everything you might expect from an official royal visit was there – the receptions, the visits to schools and charities, to wounded soldiers and the disabled. Meghan and Harry’s speeches and their whole attitude have been designed to give the impression that they are still fully paid-up royals, and William and his father King Charles don’t like it one bit.”

Quinn concluded with a stark observation: “For Charles and William, it’s as if Meghan and Harry are saying, ‘We don’t need your permission to be working royals; we will do it on our own terms whenever and wherever we like.'”

The fallout from this trip underscores the ongoing tensions between the Sussexes and the rest of the royal family, highlighting the complex dynamics at play as both sides navigate their new roles and responsibilities.
