King Charles has reportedly joined Prince William in questioning Meghan Markle‘s decision to publicly share a photograph from her family’s visit to Princess Diana’s gravesite. According to palace insiders, the image of Prince Harry, Prince Archie, and Princess Lilibet at Althorp left the King uncomfortable because he believes some family moments should remain private.
King Charles reportedly joins Prince William in objecting to Meghan Markle’s social media post, claims insider
The controversy follows Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent UK trip, during which they met privately with King Charles and Queen Camilla for the first time in four years, with their children. During their visit to Britain, Harry and Markle reportedly traveled with Archie and Lilibet to Althorp, Princess Diana’s ancestral home in Northamptonshire.
Markle later shared a photograph from the visit with her social media followers as part of a collection of summer images. The photo showed Harry and Archie walking ahead with large bouquets, while Lilibet carried a smaller arrangement as the family reportedly headed to Diana’s resting place. “The fact they shared a photo of the children on the grounds of Diana’s family home has enraged William,” the source claimed.
The insider alleged that William does not object to Archie and Lilibet visiting their grandmother’s grave or paying tribute to her. However, the source claimed he strongly disagrees with turning the visit into public-facing content. “He doesn’t have any objection to Archie and Lilibet paying their respects to their late grandmother,” the insider said. “But in his view, to turn it into a publicity grab is just vulgar and beyond disrespectful,” they added.
The source also claimed William felt particularly disappointed by the decision. “He finds it very hypocritical. This proves nothing has changed, and he’s not the only one who sees it this way,” the insider alleged. The photograph also unsettled other senior royals. “The king is genuinely shocked. Even people who usually refuse to comment on Harry and Meghan are wincing,” the source claimed. “Charles believes that some family moments are simply too sacred to share,” the insider added.
