Another tweep shared a similar sentiment and said the gesture from the royal family could be called classy because they wished Meghan a happy birthday despite her throwing the family under the bus while the late Prince Philip was sick.

The fan also accused Meghan of using Prince Philip's funeral for PR. Another fan described the royal family as top class. The fan said they would never wish happy birthday to a narcissistic person trying to damage her in-laws and the British monarchy.

The gesture only emphasizes the Duke of Sussex's soft spot for his grandma.

The fan also said Meghan was undeserving of the kind words from the royal family and expressed disappointment in Harry and Meghan, who they described as an ungrateful duo. Another tweep wrote:

"Royal family showing their class."

The gesture from the royal family is proof of how Queen Elizabeth has remained supportive of Harry and Meghan despite their exit from the royal family and critical comments they made towards Buckingham Palace in their infamous interview with Oprah Winfrey and afterward.

In May, royal author Andrew Morton told Express.co.uk that the queen has a special bond with Prince Harry and has gone out of her way to support him.

One cannot know the truth about Harry and Queen Elizabeth's relationship without going back through the years. After Princess Diana died, the queen's love for her grandsons shone through as she guided Harry and William and helped them cope with their mom's demise.

Royal sources also said that when Harry went public with Meghan, the queen was very pleased that her grandson had found a woman who would be a positive force in his life.

Even after Harry and Meghan announced their royal family exit, Queen Elizabeth and her grandson had lunch following his return to the UK to complete his final royal duty.

The queen is also taking charge of healing the rift between Harry and Meghan and the royal family, with several actions she has taken pointing to this.

One of such actions is her inviting Harry and Meghan to her Platinum Jubilee, which will take place in 2022. The Platinum Jubilee marks Queen Elizabeth's 70 years of service.

A source revealed that Harry and Meghan have plans to attend the event though they are uncertain that they will join her at Buckingham Palace's royal balcony.

Harry also named his second child and first daughter Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, a tribute to his mother and grandmother. The gesture only emphasizes the Duke of Sussex's soft spot for his grandma.

Royal family observers will only hope that their close grandma-grandson bond can lead to a complete settlement of Harry's feud with his family. Only time will tell.
