How Harry And Meghan Replied To Claim Prince Charles



PRINCE HARRY and Meghan Markle have hit back at new claims Prince Charles gave them a "substantial sum" of cash following Megxit after the Duke alleged his father "literally cut me off" in his interview with Oprah.


Prince Harry, 36, and Meghan Markle, 39, have defended their claim they were "literally cut off" by Prince Charles, 72, following their choice to quit the Royal Family - regardless of Clarence House accounts displaying the couple continued to receive money from the Duchy of Cornwall till the early summer 2020. Speaking in their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in March, Harry informed the chatshow megastar they signed rewarding deals with Netflix and Spotify after being "cut-off" by the future king.


Harry said: "[The Netflix deal] was recommended by somebody else via the point of where my family actually cut me off financially, and I had to afford security for us.


But Clarence House accounts covering the year from April 2020 disclose Charles supported both his sons and their wives to the tune of £4.5m.


A senior Clarence House spokesman stated the Sussexes acquired a "substantial" sum from the future king.


He added: “That funding ceased in the summer of last year. The couple are now financially independent.”


Asked whether the Sussexes and Clarence House's accounts were at odds, the spokesman said: “All I can tell you are the facts.”


Separately, The Sovereign Grant report is out today and indicates Harry and Meghan paid back the full £2.4m taxpayers spent on refurbishing Frogmore Cottage in Windsor which triggered controversy at the time.

Harry and Meghan have answered to the royal finance revelations in a statement that supports the claim they made in March, claiming the accounts refer to "two different timelines."


A Sussex spokesman said: "You are conflating two different timelines and it is inaccurate to recommend there is a contradiction.


"The Duke's remarks throughout the Oprah Winfrey interview have been in reference to the first quarter of the fiscal year which begins in April.


"The same date the transitional year the Sandringham agreement started and that is in alignment with the Clarence House accounts."
