Greetings everyone, it's your host Sarah with another juicy royal gossip story to break down. As the title suggests, things seem to be reaching a dramatic peak in the ongoing saga between Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and the rest of the British royal family. While no details have been fully confirmed yet, reports of potential divorce proceedings and paternity tests are rocking the palace and sending rumors swirling. Let's take a closer look at what's being reported and try to make sense of this increasingly complicated situation.
It's no secret that Harry and Meghan have faced growing criticism in the two years since stepping back as senior working royals and relocating to California. Their interviews criticizing the institution, clashes over private jet use while advocating for environmental causes, and lucrative Netflix and Spotify deals have rubbed many the wrong way. Tensions also appear to be mounting between Harry and his father Charles, with reports the Prince of Wales has cut off much of their financial support, forcing the Sussexes to find other sources of income.

Things seem to be coming to a head, as multiple sources claim doubts are emerging about the state of Harry and Meghan's marriage amid this family strife and reliance on public appearances. Some say Charles privately wonders if Harry is truly happy, or if Meghan is controlling the narrative alone. Anonymous insiders also allege the couple have been secretly fighting a lot at home as pressure intensifies. Then, in a bombshell report, a Charles confidant revealed the Prince of Wales discreetly hired a top London divorce lawyer to explore legal and financial outcomes should a separation occur between Harry, Meghan and the royal family.
It gets even more shocking from there. Several UK tabloids went on to allege Charles has called for paternity tests on Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 1, questioning if they are truly his grandchildren and if Harry is their biological father. No confirmation has come from any official sources, but sources say the reported requests have greatly angered Harry and Meghan and further strained their marriage. Some close to Meghan said she turned pale upon learning of Charles' alleged accusations.

Amidst this family drama, Meghan made an unusual move in launching a crowdfunding campaign on their Archewell website this week, asking the public to donate any amount to help support their "growing family" as she claims neither she nor Harry receive funds from the royal family. Not surprisingly, this plea for millions in public donations to fund their lifestyle has drawn intense criticism, with questions around why supposedly wealthy celebrities need donations.

While inflammatory claims require corroboration, there are clearly major issues emerging between Harry, his father Charles and the rest of the royal family. Reports of behind the scenes marriage tensions and the Sussexes' ongoing public clashes with the palace also give credence to ideas of growing rifts. Only time will fully reveal the true state of affairs behind closed Palace doors in this very modern royal drama. In the meantime, Charles purportedly taking precautionary legal measures for a potential split, as well as alleged paternity doubts tearing new rifts, have certainly ignited even more rumors of shocking divisions yet to come.
