King Charles Broke Major Rule To Prevent Harry & Meghan Markle From ‘Causing a Mess’
The letter says any charity work by Harry and Meghan is private, and palace sources say they received it about an hour before release.
- On Monday, King Charles authorized a letter confirming that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle 'are no longer working Members of The Royal Family.' The Lord Chamberlain sent the correspondence on behalf of Buckingham Palace to senior officials.
- Originally established six years ago at the 2020 Sandringham Summit called by the late Queen Elizabeth II, these terms reaffirm the couple's non-working status following their return to the UK.
- A letter of 'guidance' written by Lord Benyon on the King's behalf insists the Sussexes are private citizens. Sources report Harry and Meghan were 'surprised' not to have been given a proper heads-up before release.
- Harry took 'particular issue' with the 'private citizen' nomenclature, preferring the couple be described as 'public figures,' per Telegraph reporting. The Palace maintains 'no correspondence shall be entered into' on the matter.
- Aiming to preempt confusion as the couple explores new charities and events, the Palace released the letter publicly—a decision one royal commentator called 'unprecedented.' The move signals the institution's intent to establish boundaries before the couple's profile expands.
