Is there tension between the Sussexes?

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have long been subjects of controversy, particularly due to their actions that distance them from the principles of the British royal family.

Heated arguments, often ending in shouting matches, are some of the issues Prince Harry himself confirmed in his book Spare.

In the memoir, the Duke of Sussex narrated an incident where he acted “cruelly” towards his wife during a fight fueled by cultural differences, language barriers, and “wine that went to his head.”

Prince Harry, 39, admitted that he was already in a fragile state after “weeks of battling with the press” and took Meghan‘s words the wrong way during a night of cooking, after dancing to songs by James Taylor and Nina Simone.

“For some reason, when the conversation took an unexpected turn, I became touchy. Then I got angry – disproportionately, recklessly angry. Meg said something I took badly… I thought: Why is she getting at me? I yelled at her, spoke harshly, cruelly,” Prince Harry shared, according to The Mirror.

Meghan, originally from Los Angeles, left the room after this argument. When Harry followed her to talk, she gave him an ultimatum: “I will never tolerate being spoken to like that.”

Although this happened in December 2016, just months after they started dating, Harry quickly realized that Markle “wasn’t going to tolerate that kind of partner.” She questioned his behavior and even suggested he switch therapists.

“She wasn’t going to tolerate that kind of partner. Or co-parent. That kind of life. She wasn’t going to raise her children in an atmosphere of anger or disrespect. She said it all, very clearly,” Harry reflected.

This tense moment caused Harry to feel like “everything stopped,” particularly when he realized how his words had driven his partner away, even if just for a few moments.

“When the words left my mouth, I could feel everything in the room stop. The sauce stopped bubbling, the air molecules stopped swirling. Even Nina Simone seemed to stop,” Harry confessed.

Current Tension in their Relationship?

The tensions that began in the early stages of their relationship seem to have resurfaced as recent reports indicate that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are on bad terms, with some insiders calling Meghan “a nightmare.”

In his book Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors, royal expert Tom Bower detailed an incident where Meghan was accused of behaving ungraciously during a meeting, confronting Harry‘s friends about their comments on “her work style.”

Witnesses described the former actress as “a total nightmare,” while others reportedly said, “Harry must be out of his mind” to be with her.

It appears that Meghan‘s “dominance” has led to a crisis in their marriage. Sources revealed that Harry may have felt jealous of Meghan for the first time, as tension between them grows.

Rumors circulated that Harry resented Meghan after their joint tour in Colombia, where the former actress reportedly stole the spotlight and received all the attention.

Royal expert Matt Wilkinson told RadarOnline that during their South American tour, much of the attention was focused on Meghan. “A lot of it was about Meghan. Many of the images and words that came through the Sussex press office… it was all about Meghan,” Wilkinson shared.

Friends of Harry also revealed that the Duke of Sussex “hates how Meghan steals the attention” and makes it seem as though he isn’t present. They noted that Harry “feels overshadowed by his wife after she took center stage” during tours in Nigeria and Colombia.

These revelations have sparked speculation among royal experts and fans about a possible divorce between Harry and Meghan, though nothing has been confirmed so far.
