In a recent public appearance, Prince Harry was seen with deep scratches on his face, while Meghan Markle sported a broken nail during a walkabout.
The outing, which also included Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales, was initially intended to showcase unity among the “Fab Four” of the Windsor Castle.
However, the event was delayed by an hour, leading to speculations about the couple’s behavior.
According to NBC’s royal commentator Daisy McAndrew, the reason for the delay was that Harry and Meghan had to quickly change into more formal attire, while the Duchess had to attend to her hair and makeup.
The walkabout was scheduled to begin nearly an hour earlier, but the couple’s need for preparation caused the delay.
Despite the attempt to present a united front, there are lingering concerns within the royal family.
A source revealed that there is still a significant sense of distrust, and for this to dissipate, major reconciliation is necessary from those involved.
Without such efforts, it may be futile to expect any progress in resolving the issues at hand.
Nevertheless, the public display of unity was welcomed by fans, who believe that in the midst of mourning, other matters pale in comparison.
However, some remain skeptical about the potential for true reconciliation unless there is a significant shift in attitudes.
Adding to the intrigue, a royal photographer, Arthur Edwards, shed light on the real reason why Meghan and Harry were invited to join William and Catherine outside Windsor Castle.
In an interview with Piers Morgan, Edwards shared that William wanted to avoid media attention being solely focused on Meghan during the funeral.
The King desired the event to center around the Queen without any distractions.
Whether this gathering will lead to a reconciliation between the brothers remains uncertain, as a significant rift currently separates them.
When asked about his experiences with the future King Charles, Edwards praised him as a fantastic person who is well-connected with leaders from around the world.
He emphasized Charles’ extensive travels and his interactions with heads of government.
Edwards expressed that history will ultimately judge Charles and that people are beginning to see him for the man he truly is.
As tensions continue to rise within the royal family, the public remains captivated by the ongoing saga.
While the walkabout aimed to project unity, the scratches on Harry’s face and Meghan’s broken nail only fueled speculation about the state of their relationship.
The road to reconciliation appears challenging, but time will tell whether the divide between the brothers can be bridged or if it will persist, leaving a lasting impact on the monarchy.
