If someone had predicted in 2015 that Prince Harry would meet, date, and marry Suits actress Meghan Markle\u2014and that the couple would leave the Royal Family just two years later while making serious allegations against it\u2014they would have faced skepticism. Yet, this improbable tale became reality.\n Harry and Meghan\u2019s love story began in 2016 when a mutual friend arranged a blind date while Meghan was in London for Wimbledon. Their first meeting at Soho House got off to a rocky start, with Harry arriving 30 minutes late. \u201cI was panicking, I was freaking out,\u201d he later recalled, to which Meghan reassured him, \u201cYou were genuinely so embarrassed.\u201d Despite the initial hiccup, the couple hit it off, meeting again the very next day.\n The relationship quickly grew serious, but it wasn\u2019t without challenges. As their romance went public, Meghan faced relentless scrutiny and racist attacks in the press. In November 2016, Harry released a rare statement condemning the abuse, calling it \u201coutright sexism and racism.\u201d However, this move angered Prince William and King Charles, who felt it made them look bad for not issuing similar statements for their own partners.\n Marrying into the Royal Family is no small feat, and Meghan\u2019s transition into royal life was far from smooth. Her first meeting with Kate Middleton, for example, highlighted cultural differences. Meghan, barefoot and wearing ripped jeans, described herself as a \u201chugger,\u201d but found the formality of royal life extended beyond public appearances. \u201cThat was surprising to me,\u201d she said in the Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan.\n Harry also revealed in his memoir Spare that William and Kate were \u201cspeechless\u201d upon learning he was dating Meghan. While initially polite, William reportedly warned Harry not to rush the relationship, referring to Meghan dismissively as \u201cthis girl.\u201d This upset Harry, who felt his brother was being judgmental.\n Despite the tensions, Harry and Meghan married in 2018. However, the cracks in their relationship with the Royal Family deepened, culminating in their decision to step back from royal duties in 2020. The couple later revealed in an interview with Oprah Winfrey that they had faced significant challenges, including accusations of racism within the family and Meghan\u2019s struggles with mental health.\n Since leaving the UK, Harry and Meghan have built a new life in California with their children, Archie and Lilibet. The couple continues to shed light on their experiences through interviews, documentaries, and Harry\u2019s memoir.\n The Sussexes\u2019 relationship with the Royal Family remains fractured. Harry and William reportedly haven\u2019t spoken in over two years, and Meghan and Kate are unlikely to become close. The divide also affects their children, who have no relationship with their royal cousins, George, Charlotte, and Louis.\n There may be hope for reconciliation. Reports suggest Harry and Meghan\u2019s recent purchase of a property in Portugal could be an attempt to foster a connection with the Royal Family. Royal expert Jennie Bond speculates that this move might allow Archie and Lilibet to bond with their royal cousins, potentially bridging the gap between the families.\n While the future of Harry and Meghan\u2019s relationship with the monarchy remains uncertain, their journey highlights the complexities of blending love, duty, and tradition in one of the world\u2019s most scrutinized families.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: A Love Story That Changed Royal History If someone had predicted in 2015 that Prince Harry would meet, date, and marry Suits actress Meghan Markle\u2014and that the couple would leave the Royal Family just two years later while making serious allegations against it\u2014they would have faced skepticism.
