Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have 'set themselves up as rivals to Queen' after they officially left their working royals' life behind, a royal commentator claimed.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's initial deal with the Firm was reportedly discussed at the Sandringham Summit last year and came into action on March 31, when they stepped down as senior working royals.

 The couple had assured the seniors to work with 'the values of Her Majesty' upon their royal exit. 

According to some royal experts, Meghan and Harry have failed to keep their words and could not represent the monarch as they had promised.

After stepping back from the royal duties, Meghan and Harry 'are now heading for disaster', according to express.co.uk,  a royal commentator claimed.

 Journalist Harry Mount wrote in The Daily Telegraph: "The most successful members of the Royal Family are those who — like the Gloucesters, the Wessexes and Princess Alexandra’s Kent brothers — are happy to offer Her Majesty steady background support.

"Those who set themselves up as rivals, like the Sussexes, are disasters."

Meghan and Harry have also been accused of trying to steal the Royal Family’s limelight on some occasions after their bombshell decision to quit the royal job.  

The couple recently faced backlash over their move to honour Remembrance Day with an alleged photoshoot of themselves at the Los Angeles National Cemetery.

 Since their arrival in the US, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have signed multi-year commercial deals with streaming giants Netflix and Spotify, while the Duchess has recently invested in her first start-up, Clevr Blends.

Queen Elizabeth gave Meghan and Harry a 12-month trial period after their Megxit agreement, which will be reviewed in March. According to new report, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have called for an extension to their  Megxit deal.
