London, December 2025 – In a bombshell that has rocked the British monarchy to its core, King Charles III has publicly confirmed he has never met or even seen his granddaughter, Princess Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.
The revelation, dropped during a private audience at Buckingham Palace, has left Meghan Markle “seething with rage,” according to palace insiders, reigniting long-simmering family feuds and exposing the irreparable rift between the Sussexes and the Firm.
The confirmation came amid heightened tensions following Prince Harry’s emergency UK flight to contest title-stripping orders. Sources close to Charles reveal he expressed profound regret but stood firm: “I’ve never laid eyes on little Lilibet. It’s heartbreaking, but circumstances have made it impossible.” This stark admission contradicts earlier 2022 reports of a brief Platinum Jubilee meeting, now dismissed by royal experts as “overhyped PR spin” with no photographic proof or follow-up visits.
Meghan, 44, is reportedly “furious beyond words,” viewing the statement as a deliberate public humiliation. “She’s barricaded in Montecito, screaming at advisors, convinced Charles is weaponizing the grandkids to punish her,” an insider dishes. The Duchess of Sussex has long portrayed herself as the devoted mother denied family access due to “security fears,” but Charles’s words shatter that narrative, painting the Sussexes as the architects of their own isolation.
Lilibet, now 4, was born in California in 2021, named after Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Diana in a nod to royal heritage. Yet, Charles – her grandfather and king – admits zero interaction. “He’s seen photos, of course, but never in person. Archie too, barely a handful of times,” the source adds. This comes atop scandals like Fergie’s yacht exposés, Maxwell’s dark truths, and Candace Owens’ pregnancy bombshells, all eroding Meghan’s credibility.
