CHARLES ‘FRUSTRATED’, ONLY INTERACTS WITH GRANDKIDS OVER FACETIME

Royal author Tom Quinn claimed that King Charles was frustrated over only being able to interact with two of his five grandchildren over Facetime. This is in reference to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s two children – Prince Archie (5) and Princess Lilibet (3). Prince Harry and Meghan quit their duties as senior working members of the royal family in 2020 and moved to Montecito, California, where they started a new life.

Prince Archie is has met his grandfather a few times While his sister, Princess Lilibet only met the King Charles on one occasion. This is due to Meghan and Prince Harry’s estrangement from the monarchy.

Quinn claims that King Charles has been angry, and hates only interacting with Archie and Lilibet over video calls.

“King Charles has been putting pressure on Harry to do just this as he is angry that his only relationship with his grandchildren so far is via video calls, which Charles hates,” Mr Quinn told The Mirror.

“William and Kate’s children would spend the weekend at Highgrove and Harry’s children could then easily pop over from their house nearby,” he continued.

“This would neatly get round the problem of Meghan – she just wouldn’t need to be there and the children could be whisked back to the States after a week or two,” he added.

TROUBLE BETWEEN KING CHARLES AND MEGHAN?

There has been reports claiming that there has been conflict between King Charles and Meghan over jam. Meghan unveiled a line of strawberry jams. This was the first product from her new business venture American Riviera Orchard. King Charles already sells an organic version of strawberry jam online through the Highgrove Shop, as reported by Sky News Australia. 

However, palace insider Jennie Bond has slammed reports that King Charles is attempting to go up against his daughter-in-law Meghan Markle.

“I absolutely refuse to buy into suggestions of a petty rivalry between Meghan’s products and the release of new products from the Highgrove estate,” said Bond to OK! Magazine.

“Highgrove has been coming up with new products for years now. The marketing might have become more sophisticated over time, but there has always been publicity about the organic produce from the farm and gardens,” Bond continued.
