Prince Harry, Meghan Markle denied major photo with Queen

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were refused right to take public pictures with Queen Elizabeth II.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who were eager to get photos of their daughter, Princess Lilibet, on her first birthday in the UK, were told any phot-op was not allowed.

An insider told The Sun: “Harry and Meghan wanted their photographer to capture the moment Lilibet met the Queen. But they were told no chance. It was a private family meeting,”

They added : “There were fears any photos of the Queen and Lilibet taken by the couple's photographer would be shared by them with US telly networks."

This comes as Prince Harry documented the account of Lilibet’s first meeting with Her Majesty.

He wrote in memoir ‘Spare’: “Archie making his deep bows, his baby sister Lilibet cuddling the monarch's shins. Sweetest children, Granny said, sounding bemused. She'd expected them to be a bit more ... American, I think? Meaning in her mind, more rambunctious.”
