A fresh storm is brewing within the royal family as explosive reports claim Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been quietly devising a controversial plan to push their children, Archie and Lilibet, into official working royal roles. The revelation has ignited fury behind palace walls, with senior royals viewing the alleged scheme as both manipulative and potentially damaging to the monarchy’s future.

According to insiders, Harry and Meghan’s “strategy” revolves around leveraging their children’s royal bloodline while simultaneously distancing themselves from traditional duties. Despite stepping back from senior royal roles, the Sussexes are said to believe their children could still inherit positions within the monarchy, thus keeping the family’s royal link alive in the next generation.
Critics argue the move is riddled with contradictions. Having publicly criticized the royal institution and relocated to California, the Sussexes’ attempt to thrust Archie and Lilibet into official royal roles is seen as opportunistic. Many within the establishment fear this could create confusion about the children’s identities—caught between two very different worlds.
Palace aides reportedly view the attempt as a dangerous precedent, suggesting it could undermine the careful hierarchy and traditions that have defined the monarchy for centuries. King Charles and Prince William are said to be particularly concerned that such maneuvers could dilute the credibility of working royals, reducing them to pawns in a wider public-relations game.
Meanwhile, royal watchers believe Harry and Meghan may be motivated not just by legacy but also by power and influence. By securing roles for Archie and Lilibet, the Sussexes could effectively ensure long-term recognition and financial opportunities tied to royal status.
As the palace braces for the fallout, one thing is certain: the Sussexes’ ambitions for their children have unleashed a new wave of controversy that threatens to intensify the already fragile divide within the royal family.
