Meghan Markle's action disappoints King Charles, poses risk to Royal Family?
Meghan Markle made a surprise visit to Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) as part of a literacy campaign
King Charles is believed to be deeply disappointed by Meghan Markle's actions, which could potentially have adverse effects on the monarchy as a whole.
Prince Harry's spouse, paid an unexpected visit to Children's Hospital Los Angeles, where she participated in the Make March Matter campaign by reading books to the children.
During her visit, Meghan was captured sharing laughter with the children as she read stories such as Rosie the Riveter, Pete the Cat, and I Saw a Cat. Additionally,
Meghan took polaroid pictures with the children and happily signed autographs on the sweet snapshots.
However, in doing so, she inadvertently violated a significant royal protocol that prohibits members of the Royal Family from signing autographs.
The Princess of Wales explained the rule last year as she visited the Chelsea Flower Show’s inaugural Children's Picnic. When Kate was asked to sign her name by one of the children, she replied: "I can't write my name, but I can draw."
When asked by a second pupil for an autograph, Princess Kate explained: "My name's Catherine. I'm not allowed to write my signature, it's just one of those rules." Instead, she drew a picture of a flower, a tree and a pond with plants.
King Charles has also previously declined to sign an autograph, stating: "Sorry, they don't allow me to do that." It's believed Royal Family members aren't allowed to sign their autographs in order to prevent the risk of them being forged.
