Despite their different backgrounds, Princess Diana would have had sympathy for Meghan Markle, according to a royal biographer. If there’s anything that Princess Diana knew all too well, it was how it felt to be an outsider within the royal family.
That’s one of the reasons why Meghan, along with her husband Prince Harry, pulled the plug on their working relationship with the royal family and began new lives for themselves in California. Here’s what you need to know.
Princess Diana Might Have Had Sympathy Towards Meghan Markle According To Royal Biographer
While there’s no doubt that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have caused a huge division within the royal family, royal biographer Andrew Morton believes that the Princess of Wales would have “felt a real commonality of feeling” with Meghan.
Morton made his comments while on the British talk show, Loose Women. He said that Diana would have had a “fellow spirit” in Meghan Markle.
He said, “After just a few months inside the royal family herself, Diana who was not biracial, was not divorced, was not America…was being called a fiend and a monster by newspapers. She was being accused of really ruling the roost at Kensington Palace, when at that time she was just trying to survive.”
Morton continued, “Fast forward to Meghan’s years… She too was struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts, just like Diana. There’s a remarkable symmetry here. I’m sure she would have felt a real commonality of feeling.”
Meanwhile, Prince Harry has made the trip to London on his own for the unveiling of a Princess Diana statue at Kensington Gardens. The event is scheduled for July 1st, which would have been Princess Diana’s 60th birthday.
