Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reportedly feel relieved as another controversy grips the royals from across the Atlantic. A source claimed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex feel the spotlight has shifted away from them and onto Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor amid renewed controversial attention. The source added that though Markle is not celebrating the situation, she does feel the dynamic has changed.
Meghan Markle and husband have ‘got to feel vindicated’ by ex-Prince Andrew scandal, per source
Star magazine exclusively reported Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s take on the controversy that surrounds the royals following ex-Prince Andrew’s scandals. A source told Star, “Meghan insists that this gives her no pleasure. She says the whole situation absolutely sickens her,” further claiming, “That being said, she and Harry have long felt the royals have used them as scapegoats to distract from much more damaging issues like Andrew.”
Moreover, the source explained, “It was always hard for [Meghan and Harry] to understand how that could just be swept under the rug and ignored while they were being crucified over so much less.” Therefore, “to have Andrew finally facing some consequences has got to feel vindicating for them.”
Furthermore, the report cited a heckler who shouted, “Have you been covering up for Andrew?” at Prince William and Princess Kate outside a Stirling, Scotland, pub on January 20. During a visit to Saudi Arabia, a reporter asked William about Andrew. The prince reportedly did not respond.
The source claimed, “The fact that this mess has landed on William’s doorstep won’t earn him any sympathy from Meghan.” They added, “In her view, he chose the side of the institution that let this go on for years so now he’s going to pay the price for that decision.” As the palace faces more questions, the source said, “No doubt he’ll be cleaning up this mess for years to come and Meghan and Harry are both thrilled to be ten thousand miles away from all of it.”
