Angela Levin's Brutal Takedown of Prince Harry
Royal biographer and commentator Angela Levin launched a scathing attack on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle during a TalkTV interview with Jeremy Vine. When discussing Royal Ascot, Vine asked if Meghan would make an appearance. Levin responded: 'No, nor will Harry. But he's making a lot of fuss about himself, and he's completely desperate.' She then delivered a brutal five-word takedown: 'But that's his own fault.'
Sussexes' Upcoming UK Visit
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to return to the UK for the one-year countdown to the Invictus Games, accompanied by their children Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five. This will be their first time in the country together in four years. The children last visited Britain in summer 2022 for the late Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee, which also marked Lilibet's first birthday.
PR Strategy to Win Over British Public
Meghan is reportedly hiring a team of crisis PR specialists to improve her image with the British public. An insider told Express.co.uk that the couple sees the visit as a 'make or break' opportunity for Harry to reconcile with King Charles and Prince William. The source said: 'Meghan knows that she, in particular, will have to eat humble pie if she wants any chance of winning Harry's family and the public over, and she is ready to admit she needs the help.'
The insider added: 'She's been instructed that she is back in the UK as Prince Harry's wife should only have a background role – this is her time to show people she is capable of not playing up to the cameras. Meghan is taking it all on board and is very keen to show the British public she is not the enemy. She and Harry deeply regret speaking about the royals on TV, and would love a second chance.'
Previous Tensions Over Photographer Request
The couple's last UK visit almost didn't happen after they were reportedly banned from bringing their own photographer to meet the late Queen. The Sun claimed Harry and Meghan wanted to capture the moment Lilibet met the Queen, but the request was denied. A source said: 'Harry and Meghan wanted their photographer to capture the moment Lilibet met the Queen. But they were told no chance. It was a private family meeting.' However, a source close to the Sussexes dismissed the claims, stating they never asked for photographs.
