King Charles ascended the throne after Queen Elizabeth passed away on Sept. 8. The new British monarch is protective of the throne, so he will reportedly keep a watchful eye on his son Prince Harry and daughter Meghan Markle.
King Charles Will Not Allow Meghan Markle And Prince Harry To Hurt The Institution?
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have various personal engagements, and some are tied to their charities after they stepped back from their royal duties in 2020. Duncan Larcombe, a former royal editor at The Sun for 10 years, believed that while His Majesty ignores the reports about him, he will be updated about Markle and Prince Harry's walkabouts.
"[King] Charles' modus operandi has been to pretty much try and ignore any stuff that's written and said about him. But, on Meghan, I would be very, very surprised if he weren't being made aware of every kind of keynote interview and commercial stuff because they have to," Larcombe, an award-winning British journalist and commentator, told Fox News Digital.
He added that doing so is a "practical" move in a "business sense." He could not let the Sussexes ruin the monarchy.
"It's the royal family brand. It is a fact Meghan is trading on the brand that King Charles is now very much in charge of. So yes, he will be watching, it will be far more in a business sense. He won't want her to be saying things that could be damaging to the reputations of the royal family and, in particular, things that, in his opinion, are utterly untrue and unfair," the expert added.
"It's a practical thing. The business of family has to be protected, and there is only so much the new King will tolerate of Meghan cashing in."
King Charles Warned Prince Harry About Stripping Him, Meghan Markle Of Royal Titles Depending On His Memoir?
Several sources claimed that the royal family is panicking over Prince Harry's upcoming memoir. An anonymous insider told Radar Online that King Charles gave his youngest son an ultimatum about his book.
He allegedly went into a "severe crisis-management mode" because Prince Harry "holds the key to a closet full of dark secrets." So, he allegedly warned his son not to expose the family's secrets. Otherwise, he could strip him, his wife, Meghan Markle, and their kids of their royal titles.
At present, King Charles hasn't acknowledged Prince Harry's children, son Archie, 3, and daughter Lilibet, 1, as prince and princess. There are rumors that their HRH and royal titles depend on what their parents say in the Netflix docuseries and Prince Harry's memoir.

"The King has issued a firm warning to Harry that if he rats him out in any way in the book, Harry's whole family will be stripped of their titles. And he'll be cut off from royal life for good! There have been last-minute additions about the Queen's legacy, and he's also toned down some parts about Charles," the anonymous tipster added.
Prince Harry's book was expected to be available this fall. However, the publisher agreed to push back the release date following the Queen's death. The memoir will not be out until next year.
