Meghan Markle and Prince Harry left the royal family after getting could shoulder from Queen Elizabeth reportedly.

As claimed in new book Brothers And Wives: Inside The Private Lives of William, Kate, Harry, and Meghan , the Sussexes quit the monarchy after the 95-year-old monarch made an unexpected move.

This statement was made in reference to how the Queen had a portrait of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and their 8-month-old son, Archie removed from her desk off camera before she recorded her 2019 holiday broadcast.

The book quotes a source explaining that the Queen “looked over the tables where the photographs she had so lovingly selected were arranged.

“All were fine but one, [the Queen] told the director.” Then she pointed to the Sussex picture and said, “That one, I suppose we don’t need that one.”

A spokesperson for the Queen told The Post, “We don’t comment on books of this kind as to do so risks giving it some form of authority or credibility.”
