Meghan Markle's profile on the official Royal Family website originally included a statement where she said she's "proud to be a feminist," but a new report showed massive changes to the entry on the Duchess of Sussex's page.
According to The Sun, references to Meghan Markle's feminism statement are no longer on the official website. The entry where Meghan quoted a statement for women from a United Nations conference in 2015 has allegedly been deleted, while Prince Harry's profile has mostly remained intact.
The profile describing Meghan's "keen awareness on social issues" and her active participation in charity work at a tender age were also removed. Gone are the details of her call against a dishwashing soap TV advertisement's use of sexist language when she was 11. Also gone is a reference to her soup kitchen volunteer work in Los Angeles in her teenage years and in Toronto during her years as a Suits actress.
Her philanthropy, charitable causes and biography were also apparently moved and changed. Meghan's profile now includes her decision to step down from the royal family with Prince Harry. It also goes into the details of how the Duke and Duchess of Sussex chose to have non-royal lives and how both are not working royals anymore.
A spokesperson from Buckingham Palace told The Sun that the official Royal Family website is "updated on a regular basis." Any changes are consulted with the concerned royal's private offices, meaning Prince Harry and Meghan agreed to the changesbefore the entries were published.
It comes as Prince Harry called some of the royal staff "vipers" who apparently attempted to stifle and diminish the role of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in the royal family. Sources disclosed in the book Finding Freedom that Prince Harry was frustrated about the royal institution and the "old guards" or "men in gray suits" who run the Palace operations for Queen Elizabeth.
Prior to their royal exit, the public speculated that it was Meghan Markle who convinced and dominated Prince Harry to give up his royal role. However, Finding Freedom underscored that the Duke of Sussex has long been unsatisfied with the institution.
Prince Harry grew more frustrated after he felt that royal courtiers weren't looking out for the Sussex's interest, believing that they don't like Meghan. Apparently, the couple could only rely and trust a handful of people among the royal staff.
