Prince Harry was left furious when the Royal Family deleted a statement from him defending Meghan Markle, according to a royal expert.
The Duke of Sussex issued a strongly-worded statement against the press in November 2016 as he slammed certain news opinion pieces for having “racial undertones”. The statement was live on the royal.co.uk website for more than seven years until it was removed out of the blue.
Now, royal author Tom Quinn has suggested the removal was a “very upsetting shock” for Harry. Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, he said: “The statement was a scathing attack on the press and King Charles knows that he needs to keep the press on the side and work with rather than against the media.

“For Harry removing the statement will be a real and very upsetting shock – he will see this as the Royal Family shutting him down, erasing an important part of the anti-media crusade Harry has waged for so long.” Tom also suggested Harry would have wanted the statement to be a permanent feature on the Royal website.
He told us: “Harry thinks his letter to the press about Meghan’s mistreatment should have remained on the Royal website site as a permanent reminder that Meghan and Harry are victims not aggressors.”
Harry’s statement was released by former Kensington Palace communications secretary Jason Knauf just days after Harry’s relationship with Meghan was made public. It came following an article in The Mail on Sunday which read: “Harry’s girl is (almost) straight outta Compton: Gang-scarred home of her mother revealed—so will he be dropping by for tea?”

In response, Harry’s statement read: “The past week has seen a line crossed. His girlfriend, Meghan Markle, has been subject to a wave of abuse and harassment.
“Some of this has been very public—the smear on the front page of a national newspaper; the racial undertones of comment pieces; and the outright sexism and racism of social media trolls and web article comments. Some of it has been hidden from the public—the nightly legal battles to keep defamatory stories out of papers; her mother having to struggle past photographers in order to get to her front door; the attempts of reporters and photographers to gain illegal entry to her home and the calls to police that followed; the substantial bribes offered by papers to her ex-boyfriend; the bombardment of nearly every friend, co-worker, and loved one in her life.

“Prince Harry is worried about Ms. Markle’s safety and is deeply disappointed that he has not been able to protect her. It is not right that a few months into a relationship with him that Ms. Markle should be subjected to such a storm.
“He knows commentators will say this is ‘the price she has to pay’ and that ‘this is all part of the game.’ He strongly disagrees. This is not a game—it is her life and his.”
