Royals live news: Meghan's shocking claim refuted, Prince Charles target of Harry's resentment

Meghan made a truly shocking claim about the basic freedoms she says the royal family stripped from her. Now insiders are hitting back. 

Welcome to this week's coverage of the fallout from Harry and Meghan's interview.

 

 

With Buckingham Palace apparently determined to handle the couple's allegations of racism within the royal family "privately", more public recriminations are happening in British media following TV host Piers Morgan's decision to quit his job on Good Morning Britain.

And while our royal live blog is now closed, the Palace bombshells continue, with Prince William today taking the "unprecedented" step of publicly responding to the racism allegations Harry and Meghan have levelled at the family. William's unusual action, responding to a question shouted in passing during a public appearance, shows the "true scale" of the royal war, according to experts. 

All the royal updates through the week can still be read below in our royal blog, which was closed on Thursday afternoon March 11.
