According to insiders, Meghan Markle often joked about the stark differences between Prince Harry and Prince William, playfully suggesting that her husband must have had different parents.
These claims, revealed in royal expert Tom Quinn’s upcoming book Yes, Ma’am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants, provide a glimpse into Meghan’s perspective on the royal family and her experiences within it.
Meghan’s Perspective on the Royals
Meghan reportedly found some royal traditions outdated and frustrating.
Her warm, hug-friendly demeanor clashed with the more formal nature of the senior royals, and she was branded “Duchess Difficult” due to tensions with palace staff.
The book suggests she viewed senior royals as overly serious, allegedly questioning why Prince William and King Charles always seemed so formal.
Her opinions extended to Kate Middleton, whom she saw as a rule-abiding “goody two shoes.”
The Meghan-Kate Dynamic
Insiders claim that Meghan and Kate had fundamentally different approaches to royal life.
While Kate accepted the expectations placed upon her, Meghan wanted to forge her own path.
This difference reportedly led to tension, with Meghan wanting Kate to be more assertive, while Kate saw compliance as part of royal duty.
Harry’s Transformation and Loyalty
Before meeting Meghan, Prince Harry was described as easygoing and content.
However, after their marriage, some insiders felt Meghan influenced his perspective on royal life.
He became more vocal about feeling sidelined within the monarchy and grew frustrated with his position as the “spare.”
According to sources, Meghan convinced Harry that he was being undervalued, leading to growing resentment and numerous disputes within the family.
Meghan’s Challenges with Royal Protocol
Meghan reportedly struggled with the rigid structure of royal life.
She was said to be frustrated with the hierarchy and believed that many rules existed solely to protect the status of senior royals.
Her desire to redefine her role reportedly led to clashes with palace officials, and Harry consistently stood by her side, defending her against criticism.
The Final Break: Megxit
Tensions eventually culminated in Meghan and Harry’s decision to step back from royal duties in 2020, a move quickly dubbed “Megxit.”
In their announcement, they expressed a desire to become financially independent while continuing to support Queen Elizabeth II.
However, the departure deepened the family divide, with sources revealing that Harry’s newfound perspective on royal life played a significant role in their exit.
A Different Vision for Royal Life
According to the book, Meghan had aspirations beyond the traditional royal role.
She reportedly saw herself as continuing Princess Diana’s humanitarian legacy, envisioning a global platform to champion social causes.
Meanwhile, palace insiders initially hoped Meghan would stabilize Harry and keep him focused, but they soon realized her vision did not align with royal expectations.
The Ongoing Rift
Quinn’s book also touches on the strained relationships between Meghan, Harry, and the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Meghan’s affectionate nature allegedly made Prince William uncomfortable, fueling rumors and increasing tensions between the brothers.
As Meghan and Harry continue their independent journey, their dynamic with the royal family remains a topic of speculation and intrigue.
A Royal Story Still Unfolding
With Yes, Ma’am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants set for release in February, it offers yet another lens into the complexities of royal life.
Whether these revelations are taken as insightful truths or palace gossip, they add another chapter to the ever-evolving story of Meghan and Harry’s departure from the royal fold.
