According to The Mirror, this Friday, February 26, Elizabeth II is happy to know that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have found their happiness in Los Angeles.
She wishes him all the best. According to The Mirror magazine, this Friday, February 26, Elizabeth II had a conversation with Prince Harry during which she told him she was “delighted” to know he was happy with Meghan Markle and Archie in Los Angeles. But in the aftermath, the monarch asked him to continue “to defend the values” of the royal family of England. A subtle call to order as the Duke of Sussex prepares to participate in an interview with Oprah Winfrey?
In his surprise interview with James Corden, Prince Harry returned to the Megxit and the reasons for his departure from the British monarchy. According to him, the Anglo-Saxon press and his reproaches would have created “a difficult environment” to endure which “destroyed [his] mental health”. Meghan Markle was just as distressed and expressed her own distress in October 2019. Elizabeth II was therefore faced with a painful choice: the future parents preferred to distance themselves from their royal duties before announcing that they would not resume service on February 19.
Fear for Prince Philip
If Elizabeth II is happy to see her grandson blossoming in California, she is worried. On February 16, her husband Prince Philip, with whom she had been confined to Windsor for several months, was hospitalized in London with an infection unrelated to Covid-19. The Duke of Edinburgh is due to celebrate his 100th birthday next June and was vaccinated against the disease with his wife. Prince Charles visited him and appeared moved as he left his father’s bedside.
