Could it be that Meghan's charming interactions with Queen Elizabeth II during their initial public appearances were merely a facade? Is it possible that Prince Harry's American bride didn't quite win over his grandmother with her seemingly down-to-earth personality and their shared affection for dogs?
In the lead-up to their royal wedding on May 19th, Meghan, often referred to as a bridezilla, allegedly insisted on wearing a specific tiara from the Queen's collection. Reports suggest that her demands became so bothersome that the Monarch had to step in and have a frank conversation with Harry.
The Queen conveyed that Meghan couldn't simply have whatever tiara she desired; she would be granted one by the Queen herself. Harry's reaction was far from pleased, and he grew irritable.
Before their royal wedding at Windsor Castle, Meghan and Harry were insistent on having some private time with the tiara. From the very beginning, it appeared that Meghan had a plan in mind – a plan to pilfer the crown. It's quite understandable that palace staff would be hesitant to leave her alone with such a priceless asset, given her prior actions. One might speculate that Meghan was concocting a scheme, particularly considering that she knew about the Queen's past actions regarding personal items that had gone missing.
It's worth noting that the Queen backed Paul Burrell over the items he borrowed from Princess Diana, and her intentions were to safeguard them for her sons, avoiding a public scandal. Knowing this, Meghan might have assumed she could get away with such a bold move without being accused of theft.
The story unfolds further with claims that Meghan was intent on wearing a particular tiara featuring emeralds. A royal insider suggested that Meghan had chosen this emerald headpiece during a visit to Buckingham Palace. However, her choice was denied, which reportedly led to a heated exchange with palace staff. This, in turn, prompted the Queen to intervene and have a word with Harry.
In addition to addressing the tiara issue, the Queen also advised Meghan on wearing a veil, considering it was her second marriage. The Queen's message was clear: Meghan needed to be more mindful of her interactions with staff and adhere to family protocol.
Interestingly, Meghan's treatment of palace staff didn't just ruffle the Queen's feathers. It also caused tensions with Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge and her sister-in-law. The dynamics within the royal family seem to have been more complex than they appeared on the surface.
