The mystery of the missing photos deepens.
A source tells Page Six that a rep for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle asked Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian to remove Instagram pictures that showed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at the reality star’s big 70th birthday bash.
“They don’t want to piss off the royal family while they are trying to reconcile,” said a source.
Back in October, a source told Page Six that Markle has been quietly supporting Harry’s efforts to mend fences with his family — particularly his father, King Charles III.
“They need the [royal] family,” said a source, adding, “Meghan is aware of that.”
We have also heard that the photos were removed out of respect for Britain’s Remembrance Day, which honors fallen soldiers. Harry was wearing a red poppy to mark the occasion.
Still, a source previously told Page Six that palace insiders weren’t thrilled about the Sussexes’ glitzy night out, calling it “so tacky.”
“It truly shows that Harry is so far removed from the rest of the family. These people may be stars in America, but the pure ostentatiousness is at odds with what Prince William is trying to do with his life and the monarchy,” the insider said.
While the royal pair were likely aware that they would be photographed outside of the mega-watt bash, they may not have known photos from inside would be shared.
An invitation to the party posted on Cassandra Grey’s Substack states: “To ensure that all guests fully enjoy the evening and maintain everyone’s privacy, please note that phones will not be permitted during the event. Upon arrival there will be a phone check-in.”
Prince Harry and Markle weren’t the only high-profile attendees to the 007-themed bash at Jeff Bezos’ $165 million Beverly Hills mansion.
Beyonce and Jay Z, Mark Zuckerberg, Oprah Winfrey, Chris Rock, Mariah Carey, Adele, Rich Paul, Tyler Perry, Snoop Dogg, Paris Hilton, Kathy Hilton and Vin Diesel all attended the fete where Bruno Mars performed.
The party was thrown by Kris’ six children: Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner.
