British Royal Family News says there’s a good chance Meghan Markle’s worst enemy might have been from within the palace. That’s because there’s a very good chance that a royal staff member or even a member of the royal family might have been feeding the press negative stories about the Duchess of Sussex while she was still in London. Here’s what you need to know.
Speaking to The Cut in a new interview, author Omid Scobie, who wrote Finding Freedom: Harry, Meghan and the Making of A Modern Royal Family, suggests that all of the negative stories from the press were actually coming from staff and other royals.
British Royal Family News: Meghan Markle’s Biggest Enemy Might Have Been From Within The Palace
He told the publication, “We have an interesting system within the palace as a whole. There are different households: Clarence House, Kensington Palace, and Buckingham Palace. Each one has the responsibility to look after the royal family members that they work for.
These are the private aides, the communication staffers, the courtiers. They’re the characters that work behind the scenes. Often, it’s a popularity contest: Members of the royal family are almost competing over coverage in the papers.”
If that weren’t enough, Scobie also suggested that there was some frustration coming from Prince Charles himself and his staff at Clarence House. That’s mostly because Prince Harry and Meghan Markle managed to eclipse him in media coverage each and every time they made a public appearance or attended a royal engagement.
He continued, “For example, Charles is often frustrated that his children always get more press than him given he’s often the more hardworking member of the royal family, and there are people within his household working to make sure that he gets as much of a prolific feature for his work as possible. Often that leads to jealousy within the different households as well. [Her differences] made Meghan a huge draw for the royals — but being a draw, you will also attract jealousy.”
