Meghan Markle is known for her penchant for breaking royal protocol and now it appears she has convinced her husband Prince Harry to do the same as he will miss out on the traditional Boxing Day hunt this year.

According top recent reports, the Duke of Sussex will not be attending the annual pheasant shoot to avoid upsetting his animal loving wife. 

Prince Charles will certainly be attending as will Prince William and his son George. 

But for Meghan who strongly opposes blood sports and wearing animal fur, she has requested that Prince Harry miss out this year.

But royal observers have noted that Prince Harry not attending this event that has previously served as a bond between the brothers, will only drive the siblings further apart. 

‘William sees this as another concerning example of his brother being pulled away from his family by his new wife,’ a source told The Mirror. 

‘Harry’s always loved hunting and it has provided them with a great chance to bond as brothers.

‘But now it looks like Harry’s shooting days are over. It’s the latest point of contention between the Princes.’

Insiders also note that Harry has changed greatly since marrying Meghan and has dropped friends and hobbies as a consequence. 

Harry has also become more fashion conscious and follows Meghan’s strict vegan diet.
