Camilla: Meghan 'brainwashed' Harry
14 Mar
Summary
- Queen Camilla allegedly stated Meghan brainwashed Prince Harry.
- A 2018 teatime meeting ended with Meghan confronting Prince William.
- Royal family feared Harry was changing under Meghan's influence.
Queen Camilla reportedly voiced concerns that Meghan Markle had "brainwashed" Prince Harry, according to a new book. Tensions within the Royal Family reportedly intensified just weeks after the Sussexes' summer 2018 honeymoon. A confrontation allegedly occurred during a meeting where Meghan told Prince William to remove his finger from her face.
Concerns grew within the Royal Family that Harry was becoming estranged from his relatives and his former life. Prince William had previously expressed doubts about the speed of Harry's relationship with Meghan, and Kate, the Princess of Wales, reportedly shared these reservations. They believed Harry was vulnerable, especially given his past struggles.
The family viewed Meghan as a potential destabilizing force, suspecting she was unhappy with the limitations of Harry's role within the monarchy. Harry subsequently pushed back against royal control, distancing himself from his old friends and past behaviors.
Since their move to California in 2020, the Sussexes have focused on building a commercial brand in the United States. Recent attempts to boost their public image, such as visiting a soup kitchen, have drawn criticism. Despite hopes for reconciliation, such as Prince Harry potentially opening the 2027 Invictus Games, the family rift appears deep.
