It's not easy being Prince Harry or Meghan Markle. Sure, they may be swimming in money at times and have plenty of benefits, but they are constantly under the microscope and criticized for any action they take. That was the main reason they stepped down from royal duties in 2020, but that move has ended up amplifying the media attention.

Five years later, the decision continues to haunt them. Markle has been painted as an insufferable diva. Harry has a better public image, but it's now in question following a controversial exit from one of his charities, Sentebale. Now, more details have emerged that shed new light on Harry and Meghan's exit from the British Royal Family.

Prince Harry felt Queen Camilla was "ruthless" to him and Meghan Markle

Plenty has been said about the events that led to their decision. But we now know who their main enemy might have been: Queen Camilla. According to royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams, that's the way Harry felt.

Harry is obviously obsessed with being 'the spare'. Harry believes 'the institution,' as he calls the monarchy, had it in for him and Meghan Markle. The palace, he believes, briefed against him. His accusation that Queen Camilla was particularly ruthless in this regard was a red line for King Charles... The British royal system can be very cruel, and it's particularly cruel to the spare. Harry came to realize that he was typecast as the court jester, the No. 2.

Harry clealry felt cast aside in favor of Prince William, which in part led to his decision to step down. This was in addition to the frequent, negative media attention, as well as an apparent rift with Camilla over his relationship with Markle.

It sounds like Harry's clash with Camilla was too much for Charles to bear, which also contributed to the fallout.
