$80 MILLION CASH CRISIS!

Meghan and Harry rack up a giant bill – and his dad is copping the blame
$80 MILLION CASH CRISIS!

For 35 years, Prince Charles has been besotted by his youngest son. Prince Harry wanted for nothing, and despite his many indiscretions he got away with almost everything. And when his mum Diana tragically passed, his father, understandably, only doted on him further.

So when Harry and his new bride Meghan Markle informed Charles, 71, that they wanted to leave the family but keep all the riches of royal life, the heir went along with the plan – against the advice of the Queen and his eldest son, Prince William.

STAGGERING COST

And it’s no wonder Her Majesty, 94, and Wills, 37, were against the Sussexes’ sudden departure, given last week’s startling revelation.

The UK’s Daily Mail has reported that in the two years since their wedding, Harry and Meghan, 38, have cost the royal family an eye-watering $80 million – despite the Duchess of Sussex only undertaking 72 days of work.
