The royal family has been rocked by yet another scandal, and this time, Meghan Markle finds herself in the spotlight. Author and royal biographer Angela Levin has come forward with explosive allegations, claiming that the Duchess of Sussex attempted to steal $200,000 from her.

The controversy dates back to 2018, when Levin was commissioned to write a biography about Prince Harry. As part of her research, Levin conducted multiple interviews with Harry and other members of the royal family, investing significant time to gain their trust and provide an accurate portrayal of the young royal. However, it seems Meghan Markle was unsettled by Levin’s level of access.

According to Levin, Meghan made repeated attempts to acquire Levin’s interview notes and recordings, offering substantial sums of money in exchange. “Megan was clearly threatened by the amount of time I was spending with Harry and the intimate details I was learning about him,” Levin revealed in a recent interview. “She knew that my book had the potential to expose the real Harry, the one who wasn’t entirely under her control.”

Levin claims that Meghan initially offered $50,000 for the materials. When Levin refused, Meghan allegedly raised the offer to an astounding $200,000, desperate to obtain the information. Despite the substantial sum, Levin remained firm in her refusal. “I told Meghan in no uncertain terms that the information was mine and that I would not be selling it or giving it to her under any circumstances,” Levin recounted. “I had worked hard to gain Harry’s trust, and I wasn’t about to betray that just to line my own pockets.”

Meghan’s attempts didn’t end with Levin’s refusal. The Duchess is said to have enlisted the help of her personal lawyers, who sent Levin a cease and desist letter demanding that she hand over the interviews. However, Levin stood her ground and refused to be intimidated. “Megan clearly thought she could throw money at the problem or use her legal muscle to make me cave,” Levin said. “But I’m not the type of person who can be bought or bullied. I knew that what I had was important and wasn’t going to let her take it from me.”

In the end, Levin’s biography of Prince Harry, titled *Harry: Conversations with the Prince*, was published in 2018 to critical acclaim. The book offered a rare insider’s view of the young royal, providing insights that Meghan apparently wanted to keep hidden. “I think Meghan was terrified that my book would reveal things about Harry that would make her look bad or undermine the carefully curated image she’s tried to present to the world,” Levin speculated. “She wanted to keep that control to ensure only her version of events got out there.”

Levin’s refusal to back down ultimately paid off. Her book was a major success, and she was able to maintain the integrity of her research. Meanwhile, Meghan Markle’s reputation has suffered more blows, with growing skepticism about her motives and behavior. “I’m just glad that I stood my ground,” Levin said. “It would have been easy to take the money and hand over the information, but I knew that doing so would be a betrayal of Harry’s trust and my own principles as a writer and journalist.”

The revelations about Meghan’s attempted theft have added to the public’s skepticism surrounding the Duchess. Many now question whether her image as a compassionate and charitable figure is merely a facade. “Meghan has always presented herself as a beacon of virtue, someone who is above reproach,” noted one royal commentator. “But these allegations show she’s willing to use underhanded tactics to get what she wants. It really calls into question the sincerity of her philanthropy and her commitment to speaking truth to power.”

Others see this incident as further evidence of Meghan’s reported diva behavior and sense of entitlement. “She seems to think she can just throw money at people to make them do her bidding,” remarked another commentator. “It’s a troubling pattern of behavior that we’ve seen time and time again.”

With the fallout from this scandal likely to have a lasting impact on Meghan Markle’s reputation, Levin’s refusal to be intimidated has bolstered her own credibility while further chipping away at Meghan’s carefully crafted image. As the royal saga continues, one thing is clear: when it comes to the Duchess of Sussex, the real truth is often stranger than fiction. With more revelations potentially on the horizon, it’s anyone’s guess what other bombshells might be waiting.
