Meghan Markle blasted over ultimate 'game plan' amid Prince Harry and King's 'peace talks'

Prince Harry's "peace talks" with King Charles are reportedly part of his wife, Meghan Markle's "game plan", according to a royal commentator. The Duke of Sussex's tarnished relationship with the Royal Family has been brought back into the spotlight after pictures emerged of a secret meeting in London between his communications aides and those of the King.

Last week's meeting, which was dubbed a "peace summit" by various outlets, sparked hope that a path to reconciliation between the two camps could be carved in the future.Harry's next official trip back to the UK will take place in September, for the annual WellChild Awards, which, after the latest updates, could make a meeting with the monarch - the first in over a year - seem like a posibility. But royal experts argued whether Meghan's influence could affect the situation in any way.

Former royal correspondent for the Times, Valentine Low, said that the recent "peace talks" could only benefit the Duchess.

He told The Sun: "There's also the interesting question, perhaps quite cynically, if they reconcile and the relationship with the Royal Family becomes one of warmth.

"I think it will only do Meghan's reputation something good and help her expand brand Meghan."

Meanwhile, broadcaster Sarah Hewson said that the latest updates could be another one of Meghan's "schemes".

She claimed: "Meghan is someone with a game plan. Nothing happens by accident and I think Harry relies on Meghan for a lot of guidance through life.

"Meghan's got her own plans and business. What is Harry's? He does look lost and isolated by himself in Montecito. His father's health is certainly a big wake-up call.

She added: "I think for these talks to happen, Harry will need to speak to his father one-on-one. This will be really important as there is a big trust issue."
