‘Bucket of warm sick’: William and Kate’s brutal response to Harry and Meghan

Kate and Wills sent a secret, and not-so-secret, message to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle after bombshell royal racism claims in Omid Scobie’s Endgame.

Prince Harry claims he ‘felt forced’ to leave UK in new court statement

The Prince and Princess of Wales had a brutal response to the latest claims from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, according to royal experts and insiders.

After Prince Harry said in court he wanted to return his family to the UK, close friends of Prince William said the idea went down “like a bucket of warm sick”.

It comes as Princess Catherine released a Christmas video that contained a “secret message” to Meghan Markle following bombshell claims of royal race bias in Omid Scobie’s endgame.

In the teaser clip for Royal Carols: Together At Christmas, Princess Catherine wore a white Self Portrait jacket with a pearl trim and sequin embellishments.

Fashion expert Amber Graafland said the outfit conveyed a “thousand words” after being accused of making racist comments.

“White symbolises purity, innocence and neutrality,” Graafland told The Sun. “It also represents new beginnings and a clean slate.

“So, regardless of what the Princess is really feeling, the message was resoundingly loud and clear: Now let that be the end of the matter.”

While the House of Wales may be looking to move on from, Prince Harry this week told the UK’s high court he and Ms Markle don’t want to move on from Britain.

News that Prince Harry wants state-funded security so he can bring Archie and Lilibet back to the UK was not welcomed by his older brother.

“The one saving grace of this whole situation is that they live 5,000 miles away,” Prince William’s camp told The Daily Beast.

In a written statement to the UK’s High Court to challenge the loss of state-funded security, Prince Harry sensationally claimed it was not a “choice” to quit frontline royal duties and leave Britain in the seismic self-exile that became widely known as Megxit.

“It was with great sadness for both of us that my wife and I felt forced to step back from this role and leave the country in 2020,” Harry said.

“The UK is my home. The UK is central to the heritage of my children and a place I want them to feel at home as much as where they live at the moment in the United States.”

Prince Harry’s statement, read before the court by his lawyer Shaheed Fatima KC, came after the Home Office said it was the Duke’s choice to move his family to the US, which led to the downgrade of security in the UK.

The Duke said he never chose to leave the royal family behind, and that his children, Archie and Lilibet, can never feel at home in the United Kingdom “if it is not possible to keep them safe when they are on UK soil”.

“I cannot put my wife in danger like that and, given my experiences in life, I am reluctant to unnecessarily put myself in harm’s way too.”

While those close to Prince William and Kate ridiculed the idea, friends of King Charles added the monarch would be “thrilled” to have Prince Harry, and his family, back in the UK.
