In view of this, Meghan’s half-brother has chosen to step in on the rift and asked the monarch to pressure her into sorting out their family affairs. In his words:

“I think the Queen should step in and tell Meghan to make amends with her father and family.”

“Charles should step in and say, ‘Something’s not right.’ They should force her into this, or it’s just going to continue to cause problems in her life.”
