Are Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry failing to gain influence in American politics? This is the question asked by the British “Daily Mail”, which claims to have learned that the Sussexes were not allowed on board the presidential Air Force One after the Queen’s funeral.
The British “” reports that Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry wanted to fly back to the USA with the Bidens in Air Force One after the Queen’s funeral. However, the White House declined the request out of concern that a joint flight could “cause too much of a stir.” In addition, Jill Biden, the First Lady of the United States, previously declined an invitation to Harry’s heart project, the “Invictus Games”. According to the “Daily Mail” due to concerns about how this would be received by the British royal family.
Again and again, it is said, Meghan and Harry are said to have made attempts to gain “political influence” in the United States. Meghan, in particular, “lobbied publicly with lawmakers on Capitol Hill for paid family leave and worked behind the scenes to engage with the Bidens.” According to the Daily Mail, the Sussexes’ efforts have been confirmed by several “current and former officials in the Biden government and in the British government”.
The Bidens don’t want to mess with King Charles III. forsake
It seems that the US President and the First Lady do not want to get involved in the dispute between Meghan, Harry and the royal family. A high-profile, joint appearance is therefore apparently avoided. The request to fly on Air Force One is said to have been made shortly after the funeral reception at Buckingham Palace.

At that time, the royal family invited many important personalities to the palace – and rejected the Sussexes. The reason: Only “working royals” should attend the reception, which Meghan and Harry no longer belong to since their retirement as high-ranking members of the royal family.
People familiar with the situation confirmed to the “Daily Mail” that a return flight on Air Force One was not even discussed – it was simply out of the question. However, it is possible to welcome any person on board the Presidential machine. The Bidens can take whoever they want. But only if you couldn’t mess it up with the new British king.
