Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly “hurt and angry” following what they believe to be Prince William’s “appalling betrayal” after his meeting with Donald Trump, a source has claimed.

The Prince of Wales met with the US President-elect in France after they both traveled to Paris for the ceremonial reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral, which had been severely damaged by a fire in 2019.

Donald Trump reportedly told reporters that William was “doing a fantastic job”.

According to a source, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to be “shocked” and “terrified” after William’s meeting, as the couple are known to have a rocky relationship with the new US President, reports the Express.

The insider told Closer magazine: “This cuts deep on so many levels and feels like an appalling betrayal for Harry and Meghan. Prince William appeared to get along with Trump very well.

“Of course William was fulfilling a professional role but Trump has been so vicious towards them and of course William is aware of that, so Meghan and Harry can’t help but think he could have discussed it with them first.

“The fact Harry can’t even get William to pick up the phone is insulting enough, but now they feel very hurt and betrayed that their feelings appear not to have been taken into consideration.”

Harry and Meghan did not publicly endorse any candidate in this year’s US election, but Meghan had previously expressed her support for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, who lost to Trump.

The source added: “The whole situation has triggered a storm of emotions for Harry and Meghan. They’re hurt and angry and genuinely quite shocked because, for all their issues with William, they still believed his politics and beliefs were more in line with theirs.

“Now, the whole thing has become terrifying. Trump has made it clear he’s out to punish them and Meghan and Harry fear that his admiration for William could make him more inclined to do so.

“Meghan and Harry had to know William would eventually shake hands with Trump; for the sake of international relations, he pretty much has to put on a polite face, but this cosiness is unsettling for them.”

Trump has previously suggested that he could intervene in Prince Harry’s visa situation “if he lied” about his past drug use, following a dispute that sparked after conservative think-tank The Heritage Foundation called for the Prince’s visa records to be made public due to his confession of drug use in his memoir, Spare.

Additionally the source claimed that Prince William remained unfazed about the his brother’s ‘outrage’ and will continue to carry on with “business as usual”.

They said: “William doesn’t care at all, he’s very clear that he was simply doing his duty being a professional and he finds it pretty telling that Harry and Meghan would manage to make it about them.

“‘He’s not going to apologise for doing his job and he’s certainly not going to worry about how what he does to protect his country will be perceived by them, they need to grow up already”.
