Prince Harry’s Bold Statement That Infuriated King Charles & Brother William Deleted from Royal Family’s Website
Prince Harry’s 2016 statement condemning the British media’s “racial undertones” about his wife, Meghan Markle, has been removed from the British Royal Family’s official website after being posted for seven years. The statement, which had sparked tension within the royal family, criticized the media’s treatment of Meghan shortly after their relationship became public. Harry’s memoir, Spare, details how his father, King Charles, and brother, Prince William, were upset by the statement, as it made them look bad for not defending their wives similarly.
Despite the statement’s removal from the website, it remains accessible on the Prince and Princess of Wales’s official X page. The removal follows Harry and Meghan’s sixth wedding anniversary in May 2024, which they celebrated with a romantic dinner in California.
In the years since their marriage, Harry and Meghan have focused on their family life in California, raising their children, Archie and Lilibet. Meghan has shared touching insights into their parenting, noting Lilibet’s desire to follow in her footsteps and Archie’s love for construction. They continue to engage in public work, focusing on philanthropy, with a commitment to being more physically present in their causes.
Looking ahead, the couple aims to travel more to deepen their philanthropic impact, remaining dedicated to supporting their causes, including the Archewell Foundation and Invictus Games.
