Harry on 2020 Bullying Meghans Silent Royal Birthday
Royal Rift: Prince Harry Opens Up About 2020 Bullying Allegations, Meghan Markle’s Birthday Silence Sparks Speculation
In early 2020, shortly after the Sandringham Summit, where Meghan Markle and Prince Harry announced their decision to step back as senior working royals, tensions within the Royal Family came to light.
Prince Harry revealed that a media report at the time implied Prince William had influenced their departure. Both brothers quickly issued a joint statement denying any bullying claims. However, Harry later said he was not informed before the statement was released, leaving Meghan deeply upset when he told her.
Harry accused the palace of swiftly protecting Prince William’s reputation while failing to do the same for him and Meghan in the past. The statement, which still appears on the archived Sussex Royal website, carries a note confirming Harry was unaware of its release beforehand.
Royal expert Ed Owens criticized Harry and Meghan for airing private family matters publicly, arguing that their interviews and comments over the past three years have damaged the monarchy’s image and fractured the sense of unity once projected.
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle recently celebrated her 44th birthday on August 4, but the Royal Family remained notably silent, sparking fresh speculation about ongoing tensions. While some of Meghan’s celebrity friends posted birthday wishes online, official royal channels said nothing—a stark contrast to 2021, when Meghan received a public greeting for her 40th birthday.
A prominent royal commentator has gone further, calling Meghan a “poisonous troublemaker,” suggesting the silence was intentional rather than accidental.
As the rift continues to draw public attention, the future relationship between Meghan, Harry, and the Royal Family remains uncertain.
