To say that things between Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and Queen Elizabeth haven’t been a *little* awkward since the Sussexes’ bombshell decision to step back from their senior royal duties would be an understatement. The queen reportedly wants the headache of their stepping down to be “over and done with” and is feeling “emotionally and physically exhausted” by the royal family’s drama, but another major concern of hers is being able to maintain her relationship with Archie Harrison.
Despite the queen’s recent four-hour heart-to-heart convo with Harry about everything (re: quitting, moving to Canada, etc.), new reports say the queen is “heartbroken over the thought of not getting to see her great-grandson,” according to an Us Weekly insider. “The queen would love to have a relationship with Archie, but it’s looking unlikely that will ever happen.”
The source added, “The queen’s worst fear is that she may never see Archie again. She is trying to stay optimistic about this situation and would never stoop to casting any aspersions on Meghan’s character—even after everything that’s happened.”
For what it’s worth, the queen was very supportive of Harry and Meghan’s joint decision to leave their senior royal lives and move to North America. “My family and I are entirely supportive of Harry and Meghan’s desire to create a new life as a young family,” she said in a statement on January 13 following the news of their departure. “Although we would have preferred them to remain full-time working Members of the Royal Family, we respect and understand their wish to live a more independent life as a family while remaining a valued part of my family.”
Here’s hoping that Harry and Meghan fly to England every so often so Archie can see more of his great-grandmother. Or maybe she could take a lil vacation to Canada!
