Princess Eugenie took to Instagram to share a heartfelt message in memory of the late monarch. Accompanying her message was a touching personal photo of herself seated on a bench beside her late grandmother.
Eugenie's Instagram post conveyed her deep sense of loss, with the caption reading, "Thinking of you today, missing you so much, but remembering what a life of service, love, and dedication to everyone and to your family meant. You were loved so very much.
Forever grateful to you, and you're always in my heart." Fans and well-wishers were quick to respond to the post, offering their messages of condolence. One commenter wrote, "She was a wonderful Queen, and we all miss her."
However, recent reports suggest that the relationship between Princess Eugenie and the Sussexes, Meghan and Harry, became strained after Meghan and Harry allegedly insulted the late Queen Elizabeth during her final years. Their bombshell interview, which revealed inner palace workings and personal experiences, reportedly left the late Queen heartbroken. The couple further strained relations with the monarchy through their Netflix series, "A Memoir Spare."
Insiders also shed light on how Meghan strategically cultivated relationships, including with Princess Eugenie, as part of her efforts to get closer to Prince Harry. This included befriending people who were acquaintances of the royal family, such as associates of Princess Eugenie herself. Meghan's pursuit of her objectives led to accusations of narcissism and envy, with claims that she considered herself of higher rank than Eugenie, who is obliged to show courtesy to Meghan. Despite these tensions, Meghan continued to maintain a connection with Eugenie due to her perceived usefulness.
There were also allegations of Meghan mistreating Eugenie on occasion when her less favorable side emerged. Examples cited include manipulating her way into Eugenie's circle in the early days and potentially compromising their relationship during shady parties in 2016 with Mark Sanderson, a controversial figure associated with Soho House.
Furthermore, Meghan was said to have influenced the timing of Eugenie's wedding to Jack Brooksbank due to the proximity of the Sussexes' wedding and other royal events. Meghan's infamous tantrum over the tiara she was lent by the late Queen was rooted in her desire to outshine both Eugenie and Princess Catherine. Princess Eugenie, however, received the stunning Greville Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara from her grandmother, the late Queen, for her wedding.
Megan's public mockery of the late Queen, Princess Eugenie, and Jack Brooksbank only three months after the Queen's passing raised eyebrows. This included a mocking curtsy and remarks implying she had outperformed Eugenie in her courtesies to the Queen. Eugenie's immaculate curtsy, particularly after the national anthem, had garnered praise even by royal family standards.
While most people appreciate others' accomplishments, Meghan appeared to have taken issue with Eugenie's success, especially so soon after her own wedding, where her courtesies did not receive the same level of attention and praise.
These revelations shed light on the complexities of royal relationships and the tensions that can arise even within this close-knit circle.
