Meghan Markle’s Mother Doria’s Allowance Slashed: Royal Tensions Rise

In a surprising turn of events, tensions within the royal family have escalated as it has been revealed that Prince Harry cut his mother-in-law Doria Ragland's allowance.

According to insiders, Meghan Markle's mother had been receiving financial support from the prince, but this arrangement has now come to an end.

The decision has reportedly left Meghan boiling with anger, further straining relations between the couple and the rest of the royal family.

The revelation comes from the explosive book “Royals at War,” which sheds light on the inner workings of the British monarchy.

The late Queen was said to have closely monitored Meghan's spending habits, particularly her extravagant purchases.

It is alleged that the duchess spent over half a million pounds on clothes for public events in 2018 alone, including a staggering £110,000 on a trip to Africa.

These expenses, along with other costs such as jewelry, renovations to Frogmore Cottage, and private trips to the US and Canada, were the subject of gossip among palace staff and insiders.

In contrast, Kate Middleton, the future Queen consort, reportedly spent a mere £85,000 during the same time frame.

The stark difference in spending habits between the two duchesses has raised eyebrows and fueled speculation about Meghan's financial management.

Another contentious issue surrounding Meghan and Harry's finances is the matter of their private security.

The Metropolitan Police had been covering the costs until the couple announced their plans to step back from their royal duties.

Initially, they intended for the Met Police to continue paying for their security, but a recent update on their website suggests otherwise.

While it is agreed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will still require security, it remains unclear who will foot the bill.

However, sources have revealed that Prince Charles has stepped in to assist the couple financially.

It remains to be seen whether this support will extend to covering the security costs for Doria Ragland as well.

The Daily Mail previously reported that security was assigned to Doria following the announcement of Meghan's engagement to Prince Harry.

Since then, she has been seen accompanied by private security on various occasions.

The question of who was responsible for funding Doria's security detail has also been raised.

Did it fall upon the British taxpayer?

This issue becomes even more pertinent now that Meghan and Harry have relocated to Los Angeles, where living costs are already high.

Their annual security expenses are estimated to be around £2 million, but it is unclear if this figure includes provisions for Doria's security as well.

During their stay in Canada, the couple faced criticism from the Canadian public for relying on public funds to cover their security costs.

A petition was even launched, signed by hundreds of thousands of people, urging the Canadian government not to use taxpayers' money for this purpose.

Now, there are growing calls for Meghan and Harry to reimburse the funds provided by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
