Meghan and Harry's attempt to 'cash in' on royal link caused Queen to 'finally hit back'

Prince Harry's life since he and Meghan stepped back from their roles as senior working royals has been anything but uneventful. While there have been a number of veiled jabs at the Royal Family ever since their departure, a royal historian has claimed that one moment in particular caused the late Queen to "hit back" at her grandson and his wife.

In his book Battle of Brothers, author Robert Lacey wrote that the decision made by the Sussexes to commercialise under their own royal trademark prompted the Queen to put her foot down as the couple were acting without her permission. However, this isn't the only time the couple allegedly came to blows with the sovereign behind palace walls.
