Queen Elizabeth II was reportedly skeptical of Meghan Markle even before her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018.
A new book by Susan Page, titled The Queen and Her Presidents: The Hidden Hand That Shaped History, reveals that the late Queen viewed Meghan as calculated and highly image-conscious from the beginning.
In the book, Susan wrote that the Queen considered Meghan an opportunist with advanced public relations skills that surpassed the palace’s press operations.
Another royal expert, Hugo Vickers, shared his observations in his book Queen Elizabeth II: The Remarkable Life of Our Nation’s Most Beloved Monarch. He noted a shift in the Queen’s approach towards Harry post-2020, especially after the Oprah Winfrey interview.
Tom Bower’s book Betrayal: Power, Deceit and the Fight for the Future of the Royal Family made allegations regarding Meghan’s ambitions within the royal family, suggesting she believed she would become a significant figure.
Furthermore, Tom’s book included claims involving Queen Camilla, who reportedly mentioned that Meghan had influenced Harry significantly.
