A new book lays bare a traumatic summer of 2018, simply two months after Prince Harry and Meghan’s royal wedding.
According to the explosive new book Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors, written by way of veteran biographer Tom Bower, both the Queen and Prince Charles strongly motivated Meghan Markle to mend fences with her estranged father, Thomas Markle, and that Charles in particular became “irritated” with her refusal to do so, per The Mirror.
For these who may also now not remember—though how could you forget?—Thomas Markle made a big wide variety of headlines in the runup to Harry and Meghan’s May 2018 wedding, culminating in his now not attending because of fitness issues. (Ultimately, Meghan walked herself partway down the aisle, and was then met via Charles, who escorted her the rest of the way.) Over the summer season of 2018, Thomas took section in a number of interviews the place he discussed Harry, Meghan, and the royal household candidly and, sometimes, critically. In one interview, Thomas said, per The Independent, that he had been reduce off completely: “I used to have a cellphone quantity and text range for her non-public aides at the Palace, however after I said a few quintessential words about the royal family altering Meghan, they cut me off,” he said, adding “perhaps it would be simpler for Meghan if I died.”
Two months after the wedding, in July 2018, The Independent reports, “Prince Charles is also claimed to have grown annoyed with Meghan,” quoting Bower’s textual content as pronouncing “he had by no means virtually understood her or what she wanted.” That equal month, The Mirror reports, “Charles’ infection had reportedly reached a boiling point and he addressed the scenario with his youngest son.”
Harry explained to his father “that Meghan did now not phone or e mail her father due to suspicions that they have been each compromised,” to which Charles said, “Can’t she simply go and see him and make this stop?” The outlet reports that “Charles is alleged to have ‘berated’ Harry” and Bower writes “the inconsistencies of Meghan’s excuses not only irritated Charles, however perhaps additionally the Queen.”
Charles and the Queen allegedly advised Meghan to fly to see her father in person in Mexico (where he resides), but she refused, to the two senior royals’ dismay. Meghan claimed, in accordance to Bower’s e book and per The Mirror, “it was definitely unrealistic to think I could fly discreetly to Mexico, arrive unannounced at his doorstep, to a location and dwelling I had [n]ever visited or know, in a small border town…and by some means hope to talk privately to my father barring inflicting a frenzy of media interest and intrusion that should bring greater embarrassment to the royal family.”
Charles’ and the Queen’s urgings for reconciliation passed off 4 years ago this month—and, at least publicly, Meghan and her father have nevertheless not resolved their issues.
