Sad truth behind Royal Family photo
Two photographs taken for King Charles’ 70th birthday in 2018 have resurfaced, revealing a bittersweet reality for royal fans. These images capture a rare gathering of the senior royals, featuring King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, Prince Louis, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle. Notably, this was the last official portrait of the entire family before Harry and Meghan stepped back from their royal duties and moved to the United States in 2020, creating a rift that remains unresolved today.
The family appeared dressed in coordinated white and blue for the special occasion, with a candid version of the portrait showing them sharing a joyful moment. In a BBC documentary shortly after the event, Prince Harry fondly recalled asking his father to walk Meghan down the aisle at their wedding, a request Charles immediately accepted. Despite this warm moment, tensions have persisted within the family, leaving these images as poignant reminders of a once-united royal household.
