Never before has the royal family found themselves so under attack, all thanks to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's TV confessional, beamed around the world via Netflix. It's not the first time members of the House of Windsor have gone rogue in the media, but it's the first time they've done so in the age of the internet, with armies of faceless online trolls revelling in the chaos caused by Harry and Meghan's allegations of racism at the hands of their family. At the time of press, King Charles, 74, had so far remained silent in the face of the couple's claims that Meghan was made a media “scapegoat” by the rest of the family, despite security experts insisting there are “credible fears” for the safety of the monarch…
Even amid all the chaos, the Windsors have still found time to spread Christmas cheer. Not only did Catherine host a carols event in memory of the Queen, but the Waleses also released a gorgeous family holiday card featuring Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, seven, and Prince Louis, four, walking hand-in-hand with their parents on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. Meanwhile, King Charles and Queen Camilla, 75, released a Christmas card of their own, featuring the couple enjoying Scotland's Highland Games during the British summer, just weeks before the Queen died at Balmoral Castle. “The King and his family see it as their job to share joy rather than relentless complaining, as the Sussexes are doing,” say sources. “They will remain united and pushing on as usual.”…

Charles is said to be currently swaying between inviting them simply because Harry is his family, or banning them because they've caused so much damage. “William is on the side of never letting them near a royal event again, but the King is a softie deep down,” a source tells. In the end, Charles might not have to worry – given that his coronation is on May 6, Meghan and Harry's son Archie's fourth birthday, sources close to the the Sussexes say they're “unlikely to attend anyway, based purely on the fact that they found it rude he would schedule the event on his…
Amid all the negative press from their Netflix series, one of the positives has been Meghan and Harry sharing their personal collection of adorable images of Archie and Lilibet enjoying their life in California. But palace insiders say the couple's decision to release images of their kids, who are three and one respectively, has saddened the royal family. “It was upsetting for Charles. The world has now seen more of his grandson and granddaughter than he has,” says an insider. TRAUMATIC CHILDHOOD What's more, those in the know say Charles feels Harry, 38, is showing off that he's a better dad than the King was. In the first few episodes Harry also recalled seeing overwhelming amounts of photographers following him. “It's almost like Harry is rubbing it in his face…
