They added that the Duke and the Duchess of Sussex also had scheduled visits to different schools, organizations, and charities.
The insider further told the news outlet that Harry and Meghan “were being treated with the sort of attention and deference normally reserved for senior members of the royal family on official business.” According to the insider, “That was a major source of irritation for Charles and William, because the Sussexes had stepped away from representing the monarchy but were still enjoying much of the prestige associated with it.”
Furthermore, per the publication, the source then claimed that Charles and William had a conversation in which they raised the possibility of removing Harry and Meghan’s royal titles. The source also claimed that the monarch and the Prince of Wales were “deeply unhappy” regarding the entire situation.
