Queen Elizabeth II news: Desperate Harry & Meghan ‘know time in limelight LIMITED’ as Cambridge kids ‘take centre stage’
MEGHAN & Harry know their time is up as William’s future heir takes centre stage as a “new interesting character”, an expert has claimed.
During the Queen’s Jubilee, Prince William and Kate Middleton’s children Louis, Charlotte & George stole the show, with four-year-old Royal providing star-quality entertainment standing next to The Queen
Now, Royal expert Jonathan Sacerdoti has suggested Harry & Meghan may be seeking to get as much attention and earnings, as they knew their time was possibly limited.
He told the Royally Us podcast: “There’s an interesting thing Prince Harry said ages ago that he kind of knew that he had a certain amount of time in the limelight, his 15 minutes.
“And eventually Prince Louis, Prince George, Princess Charlotte would become the new, interesting characters.”
Speaking of Harry’s potential overshadowing by the future king, Sacredoti continued: “There’ll somebody else who may be as rudderless, directionless because of their position in the succession is such that they’re limited to what they can do in life but they don’t have an obvious constitutional role going forward and in the Royal Family so maybe they’ll go off the rails.”

Prince Harry WINS bid to take Home Office to court over security, but still suffers a blow
The Duke of Sussex is suing his own grandmother the Queen’s government after it refused to spend taxpayers’ money on his bodyguards when he quit the Royal Family.
A High Court judge will now look again at the decision to turn down his demands after Megxit.
But in a blow to his case, a judge threw out some of Harry’s reasons for reopening the matter – which could weaken his argument.
The judge rejected arguments which Harry put forward to say he should have been told who members of Ravec were and that he did not have the opportunity to comment on the “appropriateness” of Ravec’s process and certain individuals involved.
He also dismissed Harry’s suggestions that it was unlawful for Ravec not to provide security to any Royal who must ask the Queen’s permission to marry.
Mr Justice Swift instead agreed with the Home Office that the duke’s claim about who specifically should be protected is irrelevant.

Prince Harry ‘proved wrong’ about the royal family (1/2)
One of Prince Harry’s dazzling claims to Oprah has been proved wrong, claims a royal expert.
The Duke of Sussex told Oprah he felt “trapped within the system, like the rest of the family are.”
In 2021, he told Dax Shepard’s podcast his upbringing brought “pain and suffering” and that it was a mix of “between The Truman show and being in a zoo.”
Royal commentator, Daniela Elser, offered a different view, writing for News.com.au, saying the most recent photo of Prince George proved Harry wrong.
She said: “What Harry has not ever distinguished between is how much of his unhappy younger years can be blamed on the institution and how much was actually down to the two messed up individuals who actually raised him?
“What this new George shot does is really drive home that the version of the royal family that Harry has repeatedly talked about, one that was inherently dysfunctional and in which his emotional and psychological needs were never, ever met is… gone.”

Eugenie and Beatrice after being snubbed by Prince William
A royal expert has claimed the York sisters have struggled to keep the peace with senior members of the royal family.
YouTube’s royal commentator, Neil Sean, revealed that the royal rift has extended further into the family.
He claimed that they could be shut out when Charles eventually becomes King.
Neil said: “There is a big story breaking in the royal family, that has remained under the radar largely. And it’d to do with Prince William, the Duchess of Cambridge and William’s father Prince Charles.”
He went on to say insiders had revealed to him that the sisters were struggling to remain “cordial” with their relatives.
This is due to the deal made with the Queen that removed Prince Andrew from public duties.
“According to that good source, it appears that William, Catherine and Charles are on the naughty step with the princesses.
“Moving forward that could be very tricky indeed because they have retained very close relations with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.”
