Meghan Markle's dissatisfaction was evident when she reportedly threw a cup of tea after Queen Elizabeth declined a request. A shocking revelation in a book about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex has captured readers' attention. The book claims that Megan once threw a cup of tea into the air during a royal tour, where she was accused of being abrasive towards her staff and diplomats, including during their visit to Sydney, Australia. Some attributed her frustration to Prince Harry's habit of searching social media for negative remarks.
The book also mentions that the late Queen Elizabeth expressed gratitude for not having to attend Prince Philip's funeral. Additionally, it states that Megan initially had confrontations with Prince Harry's friends when they first met her. These details were reported by the Mirror Online, and the book recounts that on the day of Prince Philip's funeral, the late King expressed relief to the staff upon learning that Megan would not be attending the memorial at St George's Chapel, Windsor.
These revelations followed Harry and Megan's interview with Oprah Winfrey, during which Megan discussed her reported experiences within the royal family. Prince Philip's funeral took place on April 17th, with Harry returning from the US shortly before the service, as Megan was unable to make the trip due to being seven months pregnant.
According to the book, the couple wished to be on Buckingham Palace's balcony alongside the Queen for her Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June 2022. However, King Charles did not approve of this, and the couple only made a brief public appearance at St Paul's Cathedral during the weekend. This denial of a significant role at the Jubilee left Harry and Megan extremely angry.
Megan felt that the situation was unsatisfactory because she believed her importance to Netflix warranted her presence alongside the Queen. The book also mentions that palace officials and royal courtiers imposed various restrictions on Megan during the filming of her final season of "Suits," which hindered the creativity of the show's writers. Scripts had to be approved by Megan's agent and then sent to Kensington Palace for further authorization, with orders coming from London to make necessary changes.
One notable demand was that no photos of Megan in a wedding dress were to be taken, and she had to wear a jacket over the dress between scenes. These restrictions affected the atmosphere on set, and Megan's behavior reportedly changed, with some noting a more distant attitude, occasional tardiness, and less empathy. This was in contrast to her earlier days when she led prayer meetings with the cast. However, Megan incorporated a personal touch into her character's dialogue by mentioning Harry and expressing admiration for him.
