‘Tides are turning’ on Harry and Meghan, experts claim (Image: GETTY)
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s triple “snub” shows that “tide is turning” against them, it has been claimed.
Speaking on a podcast titled ‘The Royals with Roya and Kate’, royal editors Kate Mansey and Roya Nikkhah discussed Harry and Meghan’s recent setbacks.
Ms Mansey said: “The tide does seem to be turning, you know. Obviously, we’ve had the former Spotify exec come out and say that they were grifters. We’ve had that South Park episode, in which… you know, even worse than being criticised, they were ridiculed.
“You know, they were prince and princess of Canada on their Worldwide Privacy Tour, and I think that, you know, that… there were reports they were going to sue South Park over that…
The third “snub” was that Prince Harry’s choice to accept the Pat Tillman Award for his work with the Invictus Games has been met with criticism. Since news of the award, Pat Tillman’s mother, Mary, has even remarked that “there are recipients that are far more fitting”.

Princess Kate’s parenting hack for when children argue
Princess Kate and Prince William have a good tactic in place for when the children argue
According to The Mirror, when one of their children loses their temper, Kate and Prince William, 42, take them away for a “sofa chat”.
This means that the children are encouraged to communicate their feelings and thoughts to help them understand why the situation happened, rather than being left to deal with the feelings alone.

Queen Elizabeth ‘loved’ Australia
Queen Elizabeth “loved” Australia, a source has said.
Samantha Cohen did three royal tours in Australia with Her Majesty in 2002, 2006 and 2011. Cohen, from Australia, began working for Queen Elizabeth in the press office for Buckingham Palace before later becoming her assistant private secretary.
Speaking to The Times about the late Queen and her fondness for Australia, Cohen said: “She loved it, she loved them, it was palpable.
“I think it was quite relaxing for her to be in Australia, because there was less protocol.
“At the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne [2006], someone just came up and gave her a hug. She liked our straightness. We laughed a lot.”
