Prince William and Kate Middleton have been issued a stark warning regarding a ‘rival royal court’ in UK when they will become the King and Queen in future.

A royal expert has warned the Prince and Princess of Wales regarding ‘rival royal court’ if Meghan Markle and Harry return to Britain.

Royal expert Mark Dolan, while speaking on the Royalist podcast, has said that the California-based couple’s possible return to the U.K. could bring fresh challenges for Prince William.

Dolan claimed Meghan and Harry might establish their own "rival royal court," partly operating from the U.K.

The expert said this would "make life a misery" for William and Kate Middleton after their coronation.

"Meghan and Harry will make life a misery for King William and Queen Catherine," Dolan said.

The royal expert said, "And they'd love to be in the U.K., I think up to half the year with this rival court, and then it's going to carry on into the next generation."

Dolan further remarked, "And Archie and Lili, when they're teenagers and young adults, I predict will make life a misery for George, Charlotte, and Louis."

The fresh claims came amid reports King Charles is eager to reconcile with Prince Harry, however, William does not want to do so.

The Duke, Meghan Markle and their kids Archie and Lilibet, reunited with King Charles earlier this month amid hopes of reconciliation.
