Meghan Markle is said to be “fuming” over the Royal Family’s latest move on the day of Prince Harry’s milestone 40th birthday.
In a thoughtful gesture from the Firm, King Charles and Queen Camilla extended their birthday greetings to Charles’s youngest son on their official social media account on September 15.
In a heartwarming post the caption read: “Wishing The Duke of Sussex a very happy 40th birthday today!”
Accompanying the caption was an image of a smiling and laughing Prince Harry wearing a light grey suit jacket, white shirt, along with his signature bracelets – and he is caught grinning off camera.
But as Meghan was not included in the image, an insider close to the Sussexes claims Meghan was left “understandably upset”.
The insider said : “She’s happy for Harry because she knows how much this means to him, but she’s understandably upset, too.
She thinks it could be sending the message that it’s Harry they’re ready to forgive.”
Meghan’s pal added: “It seems obvious they’d take him back in a heartbeat and, as usual, Meghan’s the one in the wrong.
Picking an image without her in it felt symbolic and like a snub – whether intended or not – and by all accounts, she’s fuming about it. She refuses to be pushed out like this.”
The Prince and Princess of Wales also marked the milestone 40th birthday of Prince Harry with a heartfelt message shared on social media.
It read: “Wishing a Happy 40th Birthday to The Duke of Sussex!”
No sooner had the Royal Family shared the photo of Harry, eagle eyed royal fans thought Meghan appeared to be “cropped out” of the photograph as she also attended the same engagement as Harry in Dublin in July 2018, when the picture is thought to have been taken.
However, Buckingham Palace confirmed to Express.co.uk that the photo was provided in the existing format by the Press Association.
