The royal family has chosen to publicly ignore Meghan Markle’s birthday this year, with no birthday posts or well-wishes on social media.<\/p>\n
This departure from previous years, where members of the royal family would typically extend their greetings at 9 am, has raised eyebrows.<\/p>\n
Notably, there have been no messages from Prince William and Catherine’s Twitter or Instagram accounts, nor from King Charles and Queen Camilla.<\/p>\n
Even the royal family’s social media accounts have remained silent in tribute to Meghan.<\/p>\n
Instead, the Prince and Princess of Wales took to Twitter to congratulate the team behind the documentary Rhino Man, who received a nomination for an award.<\/p>\n
In their tweet, they expressed their delight at witnessing such an important story being recognized.<\/p>\n
According to royal aides, the official social media accounts of the royal family only mark the birthdays of working members.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, Meghan’s closest celebrity friends, including Serena Williams, refrained from posting birthday messages on social media this year.<\/p>\n
Last year, Serena appeared on a now-cancelled Spotify podcast, Archetypes, shortly after Meghan’s birthday.<\/p>\n
However, it is worth noting that Serena did not utilize Twitter to convey her wishes last year either.<\/p>\n
In contrast, on August 4th last year, Prince William and Catherine sent a message to Meghan via their official Twitter account, accompanied by a photograph of Meghan in a white outfit and hat taken during her visit to the UK for Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.<\/p>\n
Prince Charles and Camilla also took to Twitter last year to wish Meghan a happy birthday, using a red balloon emoji in their message.<\/p>\n
It is essential to consider the context surrounding these birthday greetings.<\/p>\n
Last year, Queen Elizabeth was still alive, and as a mother, she would not have wanted to make life harder for her son.<\/p>\n
However, with the ascension of King Charles to the throne, it appears that the new monarch does not feel obliged to engage in diplomatic niceties.<\/p>\n
His lack of birthday wishes for Meghan sends a clear message about his sentiments.<\/p>\n
Some may argue that it is unsurprising for the royal family to withhold birthday wishes from Meghan, given the contentious history between her and the family.<\/p>\n
The animosity stems from Meghan’s alleged attempts to undermine the royal family.<\/p>\n
This omission from the royal family’s birthday greetings can be interpreted as a signal that the Sussexes are no longer welcome or regarded as part of the family.<\/p>\n
Adding insult to injury, the Harkles have not received an invitation to a significant family gathering commemorating Queen Elizabeth.<\/p>\n
In a surprising turn of events, even disgraced Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson are expected to be invited, along with other close family members.<\/p>\n
Sources suggest that senior royals have made no effort to reach out to Harry and Meghan.<\/p>\n
King Charles has made it abundantly clear that Meghan will never be invited to be in the presence of the Waleses again.<\/p>\n
Recent revelations, such as Meghan’s desire for the release of the “Spare” documentary two weeks before the coronation, coupled with her reported animosity towards Catherine and alleged bullying of Princess Charlotte, have solidified this decision.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Sussexes are scheduled to be in Germany next month to kick off the Invictus Games in Dusseldorf on September 9th.<\/p>\n
This raises the possibility that they could have easily been in the UK to commemorate the poignant occasion with the rest of the royal family.<\/p>\n
However, their absence from the anniversary events suggests that they have not been invited.<\/p>\n
Reports indicate that Meghan plans to deliver an emotional speech at the end of the Invictus Games, using it as a platform to express her love and admiration for the late Queen.<\/p>\n
The timing of the Games, so close to the Queen’s passing, makes it all the more significant.<\/p>\n
Yet, Harry and Meghan have not received an invitation to return to the UK for this solemn anniversary, further emphasizing their exclusion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
