Real Reason Harry And Meghan Skipped Met Gala As Rumors Circulate
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle skipped this year’s Met Gala, sparking online speculation about their absence. The couple has faced heightened scrutiny following Harry’s recent BBC interview, where he revealed King Charles III refused to meet him due to security disputes and expressed concern over his father’s health amid his cancer diagnosis. Harry also referenced Princess Diana’s death, suggesting some might see his reduced security as a “win.” Meanwhile, the pair shared Instagram photos of family time in Montecito, with fans theorizing they prioritized son Archie’s sixth birthday on May 6—the same day Harry attended a Diana Award event in Las Vegas.
Buckingham Palace responded tersely to Harry’s interview claims, stating courts had “meticulously examined” his security funding case and consistently ruled against him. A source told the *Daily Mail* that Charles couldn’t intervene in a legal matter. Harry, who called the ruling “devastating,” said he won’t bring his family to the UK, citing unresolved conflicts—including backlash over his memoir, *Spare*. He lamented, “I wish someone had told me beforehand” the case was unwinnable.
