King Charles III has rejected Prince Harry’s request to elevate Megan Marle to the position of counselor of state, a critical role that would grant her the power to act on behalf of the monarch.
This confrontation has led to escalating tensions within the royal family, with Prince Harry now on the edge of Royal Oblivion.
The confrontation occurred during a private meeting at Clan’s House three weeks ago, and Harry presented conditions for his potential return to royal duties on a part-time basis. One of these conditions was the extraordinary demand for Megan to be granted the authority to act as a counselor of state.
The Duke of Sussex’s demand was met with immediate dismissal, signaling a decisive turning point in the already fractured relationship between father and son.
Place insiders suggest that this latest confrontation could trigger the most significant Royal crisis since the abdication of Edward VII, with Harry potentially facing removal from the line of succession entirely. The position of counselor of state is reserved for senior Royals who can undertake official duties when the monarch is indisposed or brought.
Currently, this role belongs to Queen Camilla, Prince William, Princess Edwood, and controversially Prince Harry and Prince Andrew despite neither actively serving as working Royals.
The fallout from this confrontation has been swift, and significant communication between father and son has reportedly ceased entirely. There is growing concern among senior Royals, particularly the Princess of Wales, who sees this as further evidence of his brother’s disconnect from the realities of constitutional monarchy.
Legal experts point out that removing Prince Harry from the line of succession would require an act of pament, which has not been taken since the passing of the succession to the crown act in 2013.
