The media shootout briefly between Buckingham Palace and Harry and Meghan Sussex is described in British tabloid newspapers as another chapter of the media war that seemed almost over after Prince Philip’s death.
–
But, as The Mail on Sunday pointed out on Sunday, a shootout in which Prince Harry even threatened BBC lawyers led the ninety-five-year-old British queen to take a radical step. So far, the palace and the courtiers have not commented on any reports concerning the royal family.
–
Now, however, members of the royal household and friends of the royal family are to correct, at the request of the queen, any statement which would misinterpret the statements of the queen or any of the members of the royal family.
–
Buckingham Palace cannot be expected to officially comment on issues related to royal family relations, but more voices from royal circles will appear in the media.

It’s not just about Lilibet
New controversy between Harry’s camps with Meghan and the royal family was sparked by the news of the daughter’s name named Lilibet, a family nickname the British queen had acquired when she was little when she could not yet pronounce her name properly.
–
Elizabeth II so Prince Philip addressed it, and many pointed out that the name Lilibet was too personal for the queen.
–
The question immediately arose as to whether Prince Harry had asked the Queen for the opportunity to name his daughter in this way. The American journalists, referring to the circle of friends of the Sussex couple, came with information that Harry had asked the queen.
–
The BBC countered by a statement from a royal palace that Prince Harry had announced the queen’s name rather than asked her.
–
Harry then approached the law firm, which condemned the BBC articles and announced that it was considering taking further action. However, the BBC stands behind its article.
–
However, according to a source in The Mail on Sunday, it is more than the name Lilibet. “It’s about whether or not the exact version of what happened was described,” the source said.
