NextImg:Prince Harry and Meghan Markle ‘ruined’ Charles’ first year as King by ‘cashing in’ on royal name: expert

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have “ruined” Charles’ first year as King, according to a royal expert.

The monarch, 75, celebrated the first anniversary of his May 6 coronation on Monday, following 12 months of several challenges and health woes plaguing the royal family.

But according to royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams, the most testing times for the Firm were caused by none other than the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

In fact, Fitzwilliams believes that Harry and his wife “retaliated” after being evicted from Frogmore Cottage — a royal residence they thought would “always be there for them.”

“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,” the royal guru told The Sun.

“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.”

Fitzwilliams said that while Harry’s bombshell memoir was released in January last year, it’s pearl-clutching revelations still managed to have an impact on the King’s reign.

“‘Spare’ was so badly planned you felt that he’d not had advice, but to attack Queen Camilla was clearly a red line, as was pointed out by the press that he’s so hostile to,” he told the outlet. “Therefore it was important that the King acted as he did.”

Elsewhere, Fitzwilliams accused the Sussexes of “monetizing” their links to the Windsor clan.

“There’s no doubt that evicting the Sussexes from their domicile in the UK was something that showed immense royal displeasure,” he said, adding that “it was absolutely right to have done it.”

“There’s also no doubt that the row with her with Omid Scobie later in the year and all of that was also very, very unhelpful,” he went on.

“But what one’s not going to get now and the Sussex is they monetize their connections with the royal family.”

“They will forever, it seems, be in the news and precisely how they behave and what they decide to do a matter for them obviously,” he added.
