Prince Harry and Meghan Markle ‘ruined’ King Charles’s first year as monarch

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been accused of “ruining” King Charles’s first year as monarch, as the 75-year-old quietly marks the one year anniversary of his coronation.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been savaged by royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams, who claims that they have launched “unfair” attacks on the Firm – despite continuing to “cash in” on their royal affiliations and connections.

It’s been an unprecedented year for the Royal Family – with Princess Kate and King Charles announcing their cancer battles while Prince William also stepped back from royal duties to care for his wife and three children.

But things have been made even harder thanks to the Sussexes’ retaliation, Mr Fitzwilliam claims, as even though they are thousands of miles away in Montecito, California, they are stilll managing to affect King Charles’s reign after the publication of Harry’s controversial tell-all memoir Spare among other things.

He told The Sun: “The facts simply are with Harry and Megan that after Spare enough was enough, so he had them evicted from Frogmore Cottage, and I don’t think they expected it. And they certainly didn’t like it.

“But the revelations in Spare, and not only the attacks on the Royal Family in that book and in the interviews surrounding it, which large numbers of people, watched, of course that Harry was responsible for, and it was his memoir.”

Although the book, in which Harry launched attacks against Queen Camilla, as well as Prince William and Princess Kate, was launched before the King’s incredible coronation, Mr Fitzwilliam argues that the fall out continues to impact the royals a year on from the historic event.
