Family drama is difficult and is likely something that just about everyone has experienced at one time or another. For the royal family, this drama is even harder considering as to how they are usually going through it in front of the entire world.

Now that Princess Beatrice recently became engaged, royal fans around the world are looking forward to the next royal wedding. We recently found out that despite their exit from the royal family, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry have been invited to attend the event.

While this may have been expected, considering how Prince Harry and Princess Beatrice are first cousins, it does raise a few questions. Here is why royal fans believe that Prince Harry’s relationship with Princess Beatrice is complicated.

As we know, Prince Harry is the son of Prince Charles, who is next in line to become the ruling monarch of Great Britain. Princess Beatrice’s father is Prince Charles’ younger brother, Prince Andrew, making them both grandchildren of Queen Elizabeth.

Although they are cousins, one of the major differences is that, until the spring of 2020, Prince Harry is a senior royal, while Beatrice is not. Even so, Prince Harry and Princess Beatrice spent time together as children.

Naturally, Princess was also a guest at Prince Harry’s wedding to Meghan. The two of them have appeared at many important events together, and have been photographed numerous times making appearances with the rest of the royals on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.

Things have been changing quite a bit in the royal family, and now that Megxit is almost final, things are getting even more intense. So, what exactly happened? Well, according to MSN, Meghan and Prince Harry made a recent statement that may have been a dig at the York sisters: Prince Beatrice and her younger sister, Princess Eugenie.

According to The Sun, the statement, which was focused on Megxit, royal duties, and the fact that Meghan and Prince Harry will have a 12-month review period, referenced “other royals,” and many believe that they were referring to Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.

It is pretty well-known that Meghan and Prince Harry feel that they are being treated differently, and it may appear that they are taking out their frustration on other members of the royal family.

Most people will agree that relationships with cousins are some of the best that anyone could ever have in life, and that is exactly the way it should be for Prince Harry and Princess Beatrice. However, due to some things that happened recently, some fans are believing that their relationship is actually pretty complicated.

Many people remember as to how Princess Beatrice’s mom, Sarah Ferguson, was invited to Saint George’s Chapel for Meghan and Prince Harry’s wedding. But she was not included on the guestlist for the night time reception at Frogmore House, which likely didn’t make Princess Beatrice very happy.

Although many fans believe that Prince Harry and Princess Beatrice have always been extremely close, it very well may be that there is some tension between them at this time. It appears to be complicated, to say the least, and we can only imagine that the drama is pretty upsetting.

With all that is currently happening with Megxit, things aren’t exactly running as smoothly as they usually do, and Page Six reports that there is a possibility that Meghan and Prince Harry may choose not to attend Princess Beatrice’s upcoming wedding.
