Another day, another rumor with Prince Harry trying his best to weasel his way back into the Royal Family before Prince William takes over King Charles‘ duties. This time, word has gotten out that “Charles is desperate to meet his grandchildren and arrange a Zoom call” with Harry and Meghan. This is huge news, considering the Duke of Sussex just claimed to The Guardian that he was well on his way to taking Archie and Lilibet to the UK to meet their royal grandad. A great win for Team Sussex, if it were true.

Of course, King Charles finally met with Prince Harry this month in person after 19 months, so a surprise Zoom call to say hi to his grandchildren wouldn’t be too far-fetched, right? Well, many fans are saying that this is an outright hoax and just another means to publicize Harry’s projected ‘road to redemption’ with King Charles and the Palace. “Of course there will not be a Zoom meeting,” remarks a commenter, pointing out how the King cannot miss grandchildren that “he does not know.” After all, he has already demonstrated that “Harry is now a member of the public and not of the BRF” by forcing him to use the visitor gate at Clarence House instead of the one the Royals use. “Plus, Harry blew it all with his lie-filled Guardian interview,” the online user concluded.
A Zoom Meeting Risks a Security Breach for King Charles
Journalist Neil Sean has also called the Zoom meeting between Harry and Charles a “lie,” with claims that his contacts in the Palace said that there were no such plans for the King to contact the Sussexes via Zoom. Not to mention, many Redditors are pointing out how private or not, Zoom meetings can be insecure and secretly recorded. There’s no telling what Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would do if they could get their hands on some King-to-grandchildren interaction in a video call. “Harold and TW lie so often, about everything, nothing that comes from them or their team can be taken seriously,” remarks a commenter.
More online users are also asking why Harry and Meghan don’t want their children to see their ‘other grandfather,’ the estranged Thomas Markle. Of course, that’s never going to happen, seeing how Thomas reportedly ripped on his daughter’s Netflix show for being “inauthentic” with Meghan’s “fake” acting on camera, according to Express. Whatever the case, the general consensus among the Royal Family fanbase is that, for the next several months, Harry and Meghan will do their absolute best to milk whatever they can out of Harry’s recent trip to the UK.
