Montecito turns into a war zone: Prince Harry vs \u2018drained\u2019 Meghan Markle<\/p>\n
Prince Harry appears to have had a better time in the UK than his wife, who rumors say still feels \u2018destabilized\u2019 by the role she had to play in keeping Prince Harry stable during the back and forth with the Palace. <\/p>\n
The update comes via a well placed source that says, \u201cit would be a different story if she\u2019d come home feeling like some of the old wrongs were righted but that simply isn\u2019t what happened at all. The trip left her completely drained.\u201d <\/p>\n
They have even gone as far as to call everything a \u2018nightmare\u2019, for both of them because \u201cshe was the one that had to steady him through it all; she can\u2019t go through that every couple of months.\u201d<\/p>\n
But she\u2019s also caught between a rock and a hard place because Meghan \u201ccertainly doesn\u2019t want the children going without her,\u201d the same source admitted, \u201cnot at this stage\u201d at least. <\/p>\n
Moreover, there is also chatter and calls for them to make the trip out to their neck of the woods too but \u201cit\u2019s very hard for Harry to imagine a scenario where Charles comes to America instead, he just can\u2019t see it happening,\u201d the insider clarified. \u201cWhich means, in the end, it all comes down to whether he can persuade Meghan to get back on a plane, and right now even Christmas is looking like a long and difficult conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another thing worth pointing out, which the source made sure to mention regarding the trip is, \u201cthere wasn\u2019t a moment where she ever relaxed on this trip, she was in full fight or flight the entire time,\u201d so \u201cthe prospect of enduring that again anytime soon is daunting, to say the least.\u201d<\/p>\n
The same was true for Harry because they also explained to Closer, \u201che had to fight tooth and nail until the last moment to figure out a way to bring the children, and even then, they only got one visit with the King so it\u2019s very hard to imagine how the next visit is going to be any less stressful.\u201d<\/p>\n
All in all, for royal fans hoping for a smooth return, the fact of the matter is that it might not happen, especially since Meghan\u2019s already asking Harry that she \u2018needs time\u2019 to \u2018fortify herself\u2019 for the next trip\u201d.<\/p>\n
While Harry understands, the source said before signing off, \u201chis dad is fighting cancer and he’s in his late 70’s, so naturally Harry feels a huge sense of urgency to at least get something on the books. This is not a conversation he’s just going to drop.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Montecito turns into a war zone: Prince Harry vs \u2018drained\u2019 Meghan Markle Prince Harry appears to have had…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":840438,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[64,63,134],"class_list":["post-840437","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/840437","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=840437"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/840437\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/840438"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=840437"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=840437"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=840437"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
