Meghan Markle latest news – Camilla BLASTED Duchess as ‘ungrateful’ and branded her a ‘minx’, expert claims
MEGHAN Markle was branded “that minx” by Camilla, who also thought she was “ungrateful”, a royal expert claims.
Tom Bower, a royal biographer, has claimed that the two Duchesses have never seen eye to eye – with future Queen Camilla reportedly “suspicious” of Meghan’s intentions.
Camilla, 74, remained is believed to have been “tight lipped” with her opinions of Meghan, 40, after she was brought into the Royal Family by her stepson.
Mr Bower believes that Harry and Meghan’s silence was “deliberate” and an “insult” to the Royal Family after The Queen announced her wish for Camilla to become Queen Consort.
He said: “It is believed that she (Meghan) has never liked Camilla, and I am sure the feelings are reciprocated.
“From the outset, Camilla was suspicious about the adventuress from Los Angeles.
“But, as in all her conduct, Camilla remained tight-lipped. While watching Charles painfully believe that Harry was intent on publicly humiliating him, Camilla undoubtedly provided the comfort and good advice to reassure her husband that he had done the best he could.
“She could comfort him that while his authority is challenged by the Sussex’s, he would emerge victorious.
“During those inevitably endless, tortured and inconclusive conversations, Camilla is the sort who would refer to Meghan as ‘that minx’ — the self-seeking trouble- maker whose antics will always end in tears.”

Andrew will use loan from Queen & Charles to pay £12m
Andrew will use a family LOAN to fund his £12million financial settlement after Charles persuaded his disgraced brother to pay off his sex abuse accuser.
The Prince of Wales ordered the disgraced Duke of York to “shut it down” and pay up fearing his upcoming video witness statement with Virginia Roberts Giuffre‘s lawyers would be a “car crash”.
Royal sources say the heir to the throne met with the Queen last Tuesday at Windsor Castle and then wrote to his younger sibling urging him to “see sense”.
They feared Andy would be “skewered” by Virginia’s lawyer David Boies as he was by Emily Maitlis in his awful Newsnight interview in November 2019 which caused him to step down from public duty.
The cash-strapped Duke of York, 61, is still waiting for the proceeds of his £17million Swiss chalet – with the sale expected to be completed “within weeks”, according to sources close to the prince.
It means Charles, 73, and the Queen, 95, will instead dip into their personal funds to make sure Andrew can make the settlement and charitable donation before the deadline on March 17.

SARAH Ferguson and Princess Beatrice have been spotted looking downcast just days after Prince Andrew struck a settlement with Virginia Giuffre.

And her mum Fergie also looked distressed in a Range Rover as she left Windsor following her ex-husband’s sensational sex abuse settlement.
This comes as The Sun revealed Prince Andrew will use a family LOAN to fund his £12million financial settlement with Virginia Giuffre.

Meghan considers UK a ‘lost cause’
Meghan Markle couldn’t care less what Brits think of her, because she considers the UK a “lost cause”, a royal expert has claimed.
The Duchess of Sussex has absolutely “no intention” of returning to the UK and she no longer feels welcome here, Tom Bower wrote in The Sun.
The writer, dubbed Britain’s “most feared biographer” is currently working on a tell-all tome about the Duchess and says her rejection of Britain is down to her steadily plunging popularity here.
“At the moment, Meghan’s ultimate destination is unclear, but she certainly has the backing to make a bid to star as an American politician,” Bower said.
“In parallel, Britain is a lost cause for the Sussexes. In truth, I suspect Meghan no longer cares whether she is welcome in London.
“She has no intention of returning.”

Meghan’s ‘controlling’ signals on Prince Harry
The Duchess of Sussex is said to give away signs when she is impatient to move on, claims Jesus Enrique Rosas, who runs the YouTube channel Body Language Guy.
He analysed a clip of Meghan and Harry at a public engagement to highlight his point.
Jesus explained: “Meghan and Harry were attending the Wellchild Awards back in 2019, and they were talking to some of the families attending.
“And I think this was the last family they were talking to because they were sitting along a wall, and this was at the far corner, and in fact, it was the end of the video.
“But Harry was still talking to them, in a quite engaging way, and then Meghan just stands up and literally, and silently commands Harry to stop and stand up just using her body language.
“And this is not the only time she’s been caught in camera interrupting Harry out cold.”

Royal expert Jennie Bond told OK! magazine: “Hopefully, Eugenie can be the peacemaker.
“I’m absolutely certain Eugenie and Harry are still as close.
“I think we all thought Kate would be the peacemaker, certainly at the funeral of Philip when she was engineering a chat between Harry and William.
“But I think if there is a peacemaker, it will be Eugenie.”

Queen still wants to ‘mother’ Prince Andrew, expert says
Her Majesty still wants to “mother” Prince Andrew despite banning him from royal life amid the Virginia Giuffre scandal, a royal expert has claimed.
Her Majesty is said to have battled between being “a mother and monarch” as the Duke of York settled in the sex assault case.
Royal expert Angela Levin claims the Queen has acted upon her maternal instinct to try and protect her son, widely said to be her favourite.
She told Good Morning Britain: “I think it’s a scar but I don’t think it’s too damaging.
“I don’t think one attacks a woman of 95 who has led this country. It’s unfortunate that she has a son who hasn’t behaved at all.
“She has this split thing between being a mother and monarch but sometimes she has to be a mother.
“She wants to help him out and get the whole thing over.
“They have to be quiet until after the Jubilee, but after that Andrew and Virginia can say whatever they like.”

Royal’s secret messages in Meghan’s birthday wishes
On Meghan Markles 39th birthday many senior members of the royal family posted birthday wishes for the Duchess.
Despite the warm gesture, royal expert, Ingrid Stewart Editor-in-Chief of Majesty magazine, said that the various messages contained “hidden signs”.
The Queen posted a photo of the Duchess of Sussex smiling with Her Majesty at a joint event in Chester from 2018.
She said: “Wishing the Duchess of Sussex a very happy birthday!”
The expert argued that the royals knew how “sensitive Meghan is” and as a result made sure to congratulate her despite the feud.
She told the Daily Star: “I am sure Meghan’s first reaction will be ‘what a nice gesture’, then later she might consider it just part of the royal machine she and Harry hate so much.
“We will probably never know but I hope it’s just the former.”
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s also posted a message, but Ms Seward believes the fact that the Cambridges posted for Meghan’s birthday shows how “sassy” Kate is.
She said: “She is a sassy lady and would not consider allowing anyone, let alone Meghan’s many followers, to take a swipe at her.”

Andrew ‘agrees to never again deny he raped Virginia Giuffre’
Andrew has agreed to never again repeat his denials over Virginia Giuffre’s claims he raped her as part of their out of court settlement, it was reported last night.
The shamed duke, 61, has spared himself a humiliating court showdown by agreeing a payout of up to £12million to settle his sexual abuse lawsuit.
But as part of a gagging clause in the settlement, Andrew is prevented from repeating his claims he has no recollection of meeting his accuser and has agreed to never again deny claims he sexually abused her, reports the Telegraph.
In an infamous Newsnight interview with the BBC’s Emily Maitlis in November 2019, Andrew denied claims that he slept with Ms Giuffre and said he had “no recollection” of ever meeting her.
He also said he has no memory of the well-known photograph of him with his arm around Ms Giuffre’s waist at Ghislaine Maxwell’s house, and has questioned whether it was his own hand in the image.

Queen says ‘I can’t move very well’ in first meet & greet
The Queen said she “can’t move” as she was seen in person for the first time since her Covid scare and Andrew’s court settlement.
The monarch, 95, used a cane as she met with the incoming Defence Services Secretary Major General Eldon Millar, as well as his predecessor Rear Admiral James Macleod, at Windsor Castle.
It’s understood she was feeling a little stiff, rather than being injured or unwell.
During the audience, she was heard saying cheerily: “I’m here!
“I thought you might have just stayed in there for ages. Good morning.”
Asked how she is, the Queen, pointing to her left leg or foot, responded: “Well, as you can see, I can’t move.”
Rear Admiral Macleod replied: “Well, many congratulations on the start of your Jubilee year.”

Meghan one of many that no longer need to take the stand
Prince Andrew’s settlement now means that key royals will no longer need to take the stand including Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice and Meghan Markle.
Beatrice could have had to testify about a trip to Pizza Express in Woking.
Andrew said the trip happened the same night a witness saw him dancing with Ms Giuffre at Tramp nightclub in London – hours before the royal allegedly had sex with the teen.
Eugenie could also have faced a subpoena from US lawyer David Boies in a bid to cast doubt on the Pizza Express alibi.
The third royal who could have faced the witness box was Meghan Markle.
Mr Boies reportedly believed the Duchess of Sussex has “important knowledge” and can be relied on to “tell the truth” about the royal’s behaviour.

‘He’s saving these opinions for that book’
It’s understood the Duke of Sussex accepted a £14.5million advance for the book. He will reportedly donate the profits to charity.
Announcing the deal, the royal vowed to write a “wholly truthful” account, “not as the prince I was born, but as the man I have become”.
But he’s faced criticism for his decision to release the memoir during his grandmother’s Platinum Jubilee year.
And now a slew of experts say he could well be reserving his opinions on Camilla for the tome.
Sarah Robertson told GB News earlier this week: “He’s got a £20m book deal, so he’s obviously got to deliver something that’s going to make people want to go out and buy it.
“This book was signed on the premise that he does talk about personal memoirs, family arrangements, things that have affected him in his life growing up, things he’s been witness to.
“He’s saving these opinions for that book.”

Meghan dubbed ‘ungrateful’ by Camilla (Continued…)
Royal expert Tom Bower went on to say: “She found it hard to believe that Meghan would sacrifice her career and independence to serve silently as a team player devoted to the monarchy.

Prince Harry’s private nickname
Last year, Meghan, 40, let her pet name for Harry, 37, slip out during a TV appearance, leading to the royal being mocked mercilessly by one of his celebrity friends.
The moment occurred during Harry’s appearance on the Late Late Show with James Corden, when the pals took a tour bus round LA.
When the mum-of-two spotted Harry in the background, she asked: “Haz, how is your tour of LA going?”
Harry jokingly branded Corden “the worst tour guide in LA”.
The Brit TV host then teased the royal over the moniker, saying: “Haz, oh Haz, I didn’t know we were calling you Haz now?”
Harry responded: “Well you’re not my wife.”
And it’s not the only nickname Meghan has for Harry.
Meanwhile, Harry is said to call Meghan “Meg.”
