King Charles 'infuriated' Prince Harry when he revealed he couldn't pay for Meghan Markle

King Charles 'infuriated' Prince Harry when he told him he couldn't pay for Meghan Markle in the future, according to a new royal book.

Harry’s relationship with his father and brother, and the rest of the royals has slowly broken down over a number of years.

This led to the situation where the Sussexes’ were self-exiled from the Royal Family, before they released a Netflix docu-series, a book, and a number searing interviews about the Firm, the Mirror reports.

A new royal book written by Robert Jobson titled 'Our King', chronicles the deteriorating relationship between Harry and other senior royals.

It revealed a growing rift between Harry and William, the animosity of which reportedly shocked Charles.

But it also highlighted a shocking story of one particular incident, which left the Duke of Sussex furious, the Mail reported, as they revealed extracts of the new book.

The incident took place during a meeting between the royal princes, and Charles, in the run-up to Harry and Meghan’s wedding.

Harry had been intending to reveal to his father his intention to wed Meghan - but William had already broke the news.

Then, after Harry told Charles himself, his older brother spoke first again, reportedly saying “Are you sure, Harold?”.

But what followed was a “bombshell”, where Charles told his youngest that he “couldn’t afford to pay for Meghan in the future” alongside Camilla, William and Catherine, and their young family.

This reportedly “infuriated” Harry.

Making matters worse, the blow to the prince came during worsening relations internally and growing perceived slights to Harry.

Mr Jobson then revealed that Harry already thought William disapproved of his bride-to-be, and who was concerned it had become a “whirlwind affair”, the book claimed.

Alongside that, the first introductions between Meghan and Kate Middleton left the American actress with the impression that William’s wife was “stand-offish”.

The shock claims came as the relationship between the Sussexes’ and The Firm was at an all-time low.

Following the Queen’s death, Harry and Meghan released the explosive Netflix series where they spoke candidly about their time as working royals.

After that, Harry released his bombshell memoir Spare where he made a number of shocking claims about the royals.

There were various other bombshell stories in Mr Jobson’s latest book, including how Kate Middleton found her Windsor walk with William and the Sussexes’, following the Queen’s death “one of the hardest things she’d ever had to do”.

Due to “ill-feeling” between the senior royal couples, the Princess of Wales is said to have struggled with the short time spent together.

It took place outside Windsor Castle, two days after the Queen had died.

William had the idea to walk together in an effort to project unity, but the book claimed this was just an “illusion”.

The Mail reported the book said: “Catherine later admitted to a senior royal that, such was the ill feeling between the two couples, the joint walkabout was one of the hardest things she'd ever had to do,”.
