LONDON, ENGLAND: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s apparent demands for an apology from Buckingham Palace in the wake of their bombshell Netflix documentary has left the royal family "baffled." The already strained relationship with the family has been under serious tension after the new volume of ‘Harry and Meghan’ docuseries came out on Netflix.

According to reports, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are waiting for the Palace to apologize before they contemplate going to King Charles' coronation the following year. Nevertheless, insiders say the royals are 'baffled' by reports that the couple wants to meet to address their grievances, and are 'refusing to respond' until the former royals admit their own mistakes. There is almost no prospect that the royal family will initiate any attempts at reconciling, one royal specialist claims as per Daily Mail.

After Lady Susan Hussey and the head of a BLACK charity met at Buckingham Palace this week for "reconciliation" talks, The Sunday Times reported that Harry and Meghan "want their own apology." The 83-year-old, who spent six decades serving the late Queen, resigned from her official role "with immediate effect" after Ngozi Fulani tweeted about how she persistently questioned her about her origins at a royal reception. The issue led to Lady Susan's resignation and Prince William's intervention, whose office condemned his godmother's "unacceptable comments" and declared that "racism has no place in our society." On December 15, Lady Susan apologized to Miss Fulani in person and she accepted her sincere regrets, according to a joint statement from the two as they both wanted to “rebuild their lives in peace” following the “distressing” ordeal. 

The Sussexes are now reportedly demanding a "sit down with the royal family" to address their own "issues," many of which were made public in their six-part bombshell Netflix documentary this week, which many have viewed as an unprecedented attack on the royals. However, it appears that the saga has left Harry and Meghan unhappy. The royal family, however, is "baffled" by this, according to a source from The Sun.

Harry and Meghan believe the royal family is using a double standard by publicly apologizing to Miss Fulani but not to them, sources told the Sunday Times. According to reports, the Sussexes want to get together before King Charles' coronation in May which they want to attend. "If they want to get in touch with the King, they know where he lives," a senior royal source continued. Harry's forthcoming autobiography ‘Spare’ which is likely to make even more explosive claims than the Netflix documentary will be out in a few short weeks. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex alleged in the Netflix documentary that the institution "blocked" Harry from visiting the Queen when they opted to step down as senior royals. Harry also added that it was "heartbreaking" to see his brother's communications department "copy" their father's actions by "trading" tales with the media.
