King Charles's 'Anger' Over Harry and Meghan's Nigeria Visit
25 Oct
Summary
- King Charles reportedly furious over the Sussexes' 2024 Nigeria tour.
- The Nigeria trip closely resembled an official royal visit.
- Charles and William discussed stripping titles due to the tour.
In May 2024, King Charles reportedly experienced extreme anger following Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's three-day tour of Nigeria. The visit closely resembled an official royal engagement, despite the couple having stepped back from their senior royal duties in 2020.
According to royal expert Tom Quinn, both King Charles and Prince William were "furious" with the trip. Quinn stated that Charles was "angrier than anyone has ever seen him" and that discussions were held about stripping Harry and Meghan of their Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles. However, they were hesitant to do so, fearing it might worsen the situation.
Since their move to the U.S. in 2020, Harry and Meghan have maintained their status as private citizens, a fact reaffirmed in September when a letter from Charles's office clarified their non-return to working royal roles. The rift between Prince Harry and Prince William reportedly persists, with Harry expressing a desire for reconciliation.
