Immediately after her passing, her eldest son Charles became King after being the longest heir to the throne in history - meaning today also marks the first anniversary of his accession. After his mother's near faultless reign, Charles was always going to have big shoes to fill when he rose to the top job. And it's fair to say, it has not always been an easy 12 months as monarch for the King with drama never too far away from him or the wider Royal Family.... One of the most pressing family issues that Charles has had to deal with during his first year as King is that of his son Prince Harry and daughter-in-law Meghan Markle. After the late Queen's death a year ago, many hoped it would prove to be the catalyst in repairing the relationship between the Sussexes and the King as well as Prince William. However, this has certainly not been the case. Just weeks after coming to the throne, Charles had to endure the couple's controversial Netflix series, where they made a series of attacks against the royals, with Harry even accusing his dad of lying during a summit - but worse was still to come. Earlier this year, Harry released his bombshell memoir Spare, where he alleged William physically attacked him, lifted the lid on Kate's feud with Meghan, attacked his stepmother Queen Camilla and claimed his dad didn't hug him after his mother Princess Diana died. The King has reportedly not read the book and a friend of the family told the Daily Mail: "Why would he read something that he knows is going to be so hurtful?" It's been a very visibly challenging year when it comes to the Sussexes." On t){kind=link}
