Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would like the royal family to “apologize” to them before the coronation of King Charles.
A well-placed source told The Times that the Sussexes wanted the company to take responsibility for the “injuries and damages” suffered by the couple.
Harry hopes to ‘sit down’ with members of the Royal Family ahead of his father’s coronation in May next year,” the insider added.
Harry and Meghan want the face-to-face meeting to discuss the series of high-profile claims they raised on their Netflix docu-series, Harry & Meghan.
The source claimed the couple were burned after Lady Susan Hussey handed an olive branch to Ngozi Fulani after pressing the charity boss to find out which country she was from.
Buckingham Palace said Friday that Hussey had apologized to Fulani in person and pledged to “deepen his awareness of the sensitivities involved”.
Harry and Meghan wondered, according to the source, where this peace offer was for them.
The source also suggested they were upset about the royal institution’s lack of response to their Netflix series.
Buckingham and Kensington Palace declined to comment after the two halves of Harry and Meghan were released.
The source said: ‘Nothing like this was ever done when Harry and Meghan raised various concerns – no reunion, formal apology or taking responsibility or accountability.
“It’s hard to swallow – 100% yes, they would love to have a reunion.”
In Harry & Meghan, Harry said he’ll have to “make peace with the fact that we’re probably never going to get real accountability or a real apology” from his family.
“If they want to get in touch with the king,” the source added, “they know where he lives.”
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have long been open about the racism Meghan has endured – particularly from the tabloids – and their Netflix docu-series was no exception.
Meghan recalled the moment she landed in Canada from England in March 2020, hours after completing her last official event with Harry as working royals.
“I tried so hard,” she told a security guard, “it’s the room that triggers the most.”
‘Because you say, “that still wasn’t good enough and you still don’t fit in”.’
