The royal insiders have rejected alleged cheating rumours involving Prince Harry, and revealed that Meghan Markle is keen to fight back.

According to a report by the New Idea, Lady Colin Campbell has made unproven claims about an alleged affair involving Archie and Lilibet doting father.

The wild allegations emerged on The Nerve podcast on July 23 and have since gone viral.

The expert said the Duchess discovered the alleged affair of Harry with a woman, who also lives in Montecito.

Meghan had seen woman’s text messages on Prince Harry’s phone.

The insiders have claimed to the outlet, there is, of course, no truth to the rumours and Meghan and Harry remain a united front.

However, the close confidant said Meghan is keen to fight back, while Harry reportedly wants to avoid engaging with the rumours.

The source said, “What isn’t helping their situation is the fact they’ve studiously ignored Lady C, who has, for the past five years, even claimed that Meghan didn’t give birth to either Archie or Lilibet.

“It’s probably why her new claims about a mistress and Meghan discovering damning texts have gone viral. But suggesting Harry and this woman have been ‘seen out and about’ is bizarre in a world of smartphones.”

About Meghan and Harry’s move after the allegations, the insiders have revealed as a royal, the Duke refuses to engage in this type of low-level gossip, but “it’s distressing for Meghan, who wanted to shut down this woman’s outrageous claims years ago.”
