According to the author, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle arrived in the United Kingdom with distinct expectations of the Queen.

Tina Brown’s latest book, Inside Harry and Meghan, offers an insider’s take on the couple.

“‘OK, Harry and Meghan, what do you want?’ they reasoned, forcing the Royal Family to react. We’ll provide you exactly what you’re looking for.'”

William felt “let down” and “didn’t know whether he could ever totally trust his brother again,” according to royal biographer Robert Jobson.

In a long editorial for the Daily Mail, he added: “Meghan claimed during the Sussexes’ televised appearance with Oprah Winfrey that Harry was asked how dark his son’s complexion would be in a chat with a member of the Royal Family while Meghan was pregnant. Given his wife’s bi-racial status, this was interpreted as a discriminatory statement.

He continued, ” “‘He was furious,’ a senior figure said. Making those assertions on his behalf, with no authority, he believed was not just bad manners, but also downright unpleasant, and made worse by the fact that it was complete rubbish.’

“In short, his younger brother’s faith had been broken by the Oprah interview. According to friends, Harry had ‘totally lost the plot’ in William’s eyes.” Jobson arrived at his decision.
