Meghan Markle savaged by Princess Diana’s biographer pal as she gives her frank verdict

A biographer pal of Princess Diana has given her frank verdict on Meghan Markle.

Tina Brown, a former editor of Vanity Fair and Tatler, claimed the Duchess of Sussex has “the worst judgment of anyone in the entire world “. Tina, also the author behind the book The Diana Chronicles, made scathing comments about both Meghan and her husband Prince Harry in a podcast, where she described the Duke of Sussex as “always going to leave the Royal Family “.

Ms Brown, who also wrote the bestselling book The Palace Papers in 2022, was believed to have been a pal of Diana’s with the two women having lunch together in 1997, just two months before the princess’s untimely death at the age of 36.

She has previously been outspoken about Harry and Meghan, dubbing Megxit a ‘disaster’ and claiming that the Sussexes are “addicted to drama”. And speaking on The Ankler podcast with Janice Min, she had more frank words for the couple. The biographer told the host: “The trouble with Meghan is that she has the worst judgment of anyone in the entire world. She’s flawless about getting it all wrong. All of her ideas are total crap, unfortunately.”

However, she had some praise for Harry and explained: “The thing about Harry is he’s very good at being Prince Harry. And that’s the tragedy of all of this; he is the most talented member of the royal family, without doubt, in terms of being a prince, which is all he does know how to do. He’s really sort of flawless at it.”

But she labelled him a “very impetuous man” and said many who worked at the Palace knew he was always going to leave the royal fold. She added: “He was so fragile, so combustible, he was so unhappy, frankly, in the constraints of the Royal Family.”

And she added: “He was terribly impressed by Meghan. He thought that she knew all. She persuaded him that she was the savvy Hollywood wheeler-dealer who could come in and make them stars and all the rest of it. And he just sort of blindly followed her like a child, really.”

In her book The Palace Papers, Ms Brown Meghan struggled to find her role in the royal family after her first royal tour to Australia, which she “apparently hated every second of”. A former palace employee told the author that Meghan found the engagements old-fashioned, and would have rather put the spotlight on causes she wanted to highlight.She writes that Meghan drew the conclusion “that the monarchy likely needed her more than she needed them,” and wanted her Hollywood “leading-lady status to be reflected in lights.

Ms Brown’s claims come after several former staff members of Meghan have praised the Duchess of Sussex, including her former bodyguard Steve Davies, who described her as a “good person” with a “big heart”.

Speaking last week, he said: “She gets a bad rap for being a not very good person to work with, that she was this evil person in the Royal Family.” However, Mr Davies recalled her engaging with people from all walks of life, “working with charities to working with dog walkers and cleaners.” He said he learned one big lesson from Meghan — “give respect to get respect”. He also admitted he “felt sorry for her” when she first joined the Royal Family.
