In 2020, Meghan Markle, the former Duchess of Sussas of the British Royal Family, together with her husband Prince Harry, announced her resignation from senior royal office, leaving the royal family and moving to a beautiful country on the other side of the ocean to settle and develop.
The departure of the Meghans has had an indelible impact on the British royal family, is a very important event in the modern history of the British royal family for hundreds of years, and royal historians have also named the megans' exodus from the royal family as the "Meath" incident.
The "Merde" incident not only had a great impact on the British royal family, but also had unintended consequences: the relationship between the two core members of the British royal family became closer.
According to British media reports on January 17, local time, some royal experts said that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's decision to resign from senior positions in the royal family and leave the royal family has made the relationship between the two big men in the royal family more close, and the two have formed an offensive and defensive alliance.
According to the report, royal writer Phil Dampier believes that the role and relationship between Prince Charles and Prince William are affected by two major external factors, one is the death of the Queen's husband, Prince Philip, and the other is the disappearance of the Meghans from the royal family.
Mr Dampier claims that the death of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, in April last year made the Queen more dependent on the advice of her eldest son, Prince Charles, and grandson, Prince William, when it comes to major royal issues.
Dampier commented that the same effect as The death of Prince Philip was that the Meghans' royal family was no longer a full-time member of the royal family, the move to leave the royal family, and the two people's public unfriendly remarks to the British royal family when they participated in Oprah Winfrey's TV show in March 2021, the consequences of which were to help strengthen the relationship between the future King Charles and his heir, Prince William, and the two future leaders of the British royal family have formed a close offensive and defensive alliance.
Referring to Prince Andrew's recent loss of royal patronage and honorary ranks, the author told the Daily Telegraph: "Prince Charles and Prince William are working more and more closely together, receiving advice from the Queen on every major decision. ”
"There is no doubt that they (Charles and William) will show the Queen their views on Andrew's handling of the situation."
Dampier pointed out that the death of Prince Philip was a huge loss for the Queen, who not only lost her beloved husband, but also a close adviser, leaving the 95-year-old British monarch to turn to Charles and William.
"In the past, she would have had detailed conversations with Prince Philip on these issues, but now that she has lost her husband, it is no surprise that she has become more and more dependent on their advice as her sons and grandchildren take on more and more responsibilities," Dampier said.
"They [Charles and William] are more influential than ever."
Dampier went on to comment on the impact of the Sussex couple's exodus from the royal family in March 2020.
"If anything, it's that the departure of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — and the fact that Prince William fell out with Prince Harry — brought him closer to Charles," he said. ”
In recent months, there appears to be an increasing deal between father and son and working closely together on key issues, which has also helped to strengthen the synergy between the three royal families of Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace and Clarence Palace.
Mr Dampier said: "After his father's death, Charles now spends more time in sandringham, the Queen's Norfolk house, where he took over many of Prince Philip's duties. Prince William will also become his father's right-hand man, and the two will jointly become the backbone of the British royal family. ”
