Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have recently faced criticism from royal experts who caution them against actions that could further strain their relationship with Prince William. Royal commentator Angela Levin voiced these concerns during an interview with Darren Grimes on GB News, where she warned the Sussexes about the potential consequences of their upcoming actions.
Levin expressed her views on the couple’s forthcoming trip to Colombia, suggesting that it might not be well-received by the royal family. “It doesn’t look good. They aren’t representing the royals but they are trying to,” she remarked, highlighting the delicate line the Sussexes are treading.
According to Levin, unless Harry and Meghan completely sever ties with the royal family, their actions could provoke significant frustration. “Unless they break themselves away completely, they don’t have the right to do this,” she stated. Levin also noted that their behavior could be “very annoying for the King and infuriating for William,” predicting that the couple is likely to proceed with their plans despite the potential fallout.
According to the Daily Mail’s Ephraim Hardcastle column: “I think they are going to do it because they will stay in a four-figure sum room, but I think it’s impossible,” she added. Levin also compared Meghan’s upcoming meeting with Colombia’s vice president to a similar engagement by Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, who previously met with the same official to discuss women’s issues.
“The but is, that Sophie Wessex went to meet the same woman Meghan is meeting, the vice president. She spoke about women not being treated well and went to look at what could be done,” Levin pointed out. She expressed surprise that Sophie’s meeting didn’t raise concerns within the royal family, noting, “I was astonished when I read that because she is close to the Royal Family, and they didn’t seem to mind her doing it.”
Levin concluded by acknowledging the risks involved in the Sussexes’ activities, stating, “So while she feels it can’t be as bad out there as what is being made out, it’s still dangerous.” The comments from Levin add to the ongoing debate about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s role and actions as they continue to navigate their lives outside the traditional royal framework.
