Prince Harry is “totally whipped” by his spouse, Meghan Markle — and King Charles is totally conscious of it, a royal commentator has claimed.
Royal broadcaster Esther Krauke insisted that it’s well-known among the many royals that the Duchess of Sussex, 43, has the “Spare” writer beneath her thumb.
“We know that King Charles said something about him being whipped,” Krauke advised the Solar.
“We keep hearing things consistently coming out from courtiers and people that are close to the royal family.”
Krauke, who mentioned the Sussexes with royal biographer Phil Dampier, stated the late Queen Elizabeth II’s opinion of the “Suits” alum had dramatically modified over time.
“The Queen’s opinion of Meghan evolved, and it’s much like how the country’s opinion evolved,” she stated.
“And much like the public, I think the Queen thought Meghan was a breath of fresh air. Very intelligent, very well-spoken, obviously from her acting background.”
“And she worked, she welcomed her,” Krauke went on. “I think, like much of the country with open arms, I think where things went wrong was clearly the cultural clash.”
Krauke claimed that the previous actress thought she was “marrying a billionaire” — when in actuality, this was not the case.
Markle “was marrying a millionaire with, like, sort of a reduced status,” she stated of the As Ever founder, who shares son Archie and daughter Lilibet with Harry.
“So that might have been not appealing eventually. But also I just, I don’t think she fully understood or was even interested in what the role was supposed to become,” she stated.
Krauke’s feedback echoed that of the late Queen’s cousin and closest confidante, who shared uncommon perception into how Markle’s arrival into the royal fold performed out behind closed doorways.
Girl Elizabeth Anson, who died in 2020 at age 79, divulged how the late monarch felt concerning the duchess in an interview for the Occasions of London, revealed posthumously, with royal writer Sally Bedell Smith.
In line with Bedell Smith, who spoke to the royal two weeks earlier than the Sussexes tied the knot in Could 2018, Anson stated on the time that “the jury is out on whether she likes Meghan.”
“My Jemima is very worried,” Anson stated, utilizing her loving nickname for the late Queen. “Harry is besotted and weak about women. We hope, but don’t quite think she is in love. We think she engineered it all.”
Following the pair’s nuptials, Anson claimed that they step by step began distancing themselves from Prince William and Kate Middleton.
“Meghan and William and Kate are not working well,” Anson advised Bedell Smith. “That is what the Queen said, particularly about the two girls. It’s worrying that so many people are questioning whether Meghan is right for Harry.”
“The problem, bless his heart, is that Harry is neither bright nor strong, and she is both,” she added.
