Not good.

They wouldn’t want to get caught saying this…

It appears as though royal staff are naming Prince Harry and Meghan Markle after a TV couple we’re all very familiar with – Monica and Chandler from Friends.

Yes, according to insiders who spoke to The Sun, the pair have received the nicknames because of Meghan’s similarities to that of Monica – being controlling and bossy. Yikes.

These nicknames come amongst numerous claims that Meghan isn’t easy to deal with from inside the palace walls. With her two royal aides leaving in the past year and rumoured “feuds” with Kate Middleton and father, Thomas Markle revealing she has always “been controlling”, it appears as though Meghan is receiving a bit of a name… literally.

Is Meghan burning bridges with palace staff?

Meghan and Harry are also set to miss out on an annual Christmas affair for the family – the Christmas shoot. Meghan has reportedly opted for Harry not to attend due to concerns she raised over killing defenseless animals.

Meghan and Harry attended Christmas Day church service at the Church of St Mary Magdalene last year.

Harry has supposedly agreed to snub the tradition he takes part in every year and so, he has received the nickname Chandler for his submissive attitude in response to Meghan’s “domineering persona” reports the publication.

This Christmas is sure to be an interesting one for the royal pair as it’s their first Christmas as a married couple and their last Christmas as a family of two as come spring, they’ll be joined by another member… or maybe two? You can read about that here.
