KEY POINTS

  • Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly divorced
  • The shocking news allegedly came from the palace
  • Queen Elizabeth is concerned over the couple's split, and she's upset over Peter Phillips' divorce 

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's relationship could become negatively affected by the current scandals and mishaps in the royal family, and Queen Elizabeth II is concerned about their future, a new tabloid report claimed.

After months of speculation, New Idea claimed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s marriage may be on the rocks, making Queen Elizabeth deeply concerned.

“The Queen is now very nervous about Harry and Meghan’s relationship – this new divorce announcement puts a lot of pressure on them to stay together. She’s told them that they must work on their marriage in Canada and put each other first because the monarchy cannot handle more drama,” a source told the tabloid.

Her Majesty is reportedly not pleased over the ongoing scandals involving the royal family. Just last week, Peter Phillips and Autumn Phillips's divorce was announced. Even though the parents of Savannah and Isla said that their split was amicable, the Queen is still furious.

A source said that the monarch couldn’t believe that the royal family would have to endure more bad news following the exit of Prince Andrew, Prince Harry and Markle.

Peter’s close friend also told The Sun that Princess Anne’s son was surprised when Autumn told him that she wanted a divorce.

“Peter is absolutely devastated by this and just didn’t see it coming. He thought he was happily married and had the perfect family with two lovely daughters. But he is now in total shock,” the source said.

Despite the report, Markle and Prince Harry show no signs of pressure or marital issues.

But even though Prince Harry and Markle’s alleged divorce hasn’t been confirmed, some royal fans are convinced that it’s only a matter of time before they make an official announcement.

“What was Harry thinking? Meghan can go back to doing what she was doing before she landed the princeling, but what is he going to do, hold her handbag until she divorces him? And she will,” Twitter user @brinjak said.

“This time next year we will be reading about their divorce,” Twitter user @LisaMacKinnon16 said.

“Nobody wants to see this Meghan person again. I hope they get a divorce soon, we all love Prince Harry,” Twitter user @EggheadRio said.
