Queen Camilla Allegedly Believed Meghan Markle ‘Brainwashed’ Prince Harry

New claims from a forthcoming book, Betrayal: Power, Deceit And The Fight For The Future Of The Royal Family by Tom Bower, suggest Queen Camilla privately expressed concerns to a friend that Meghan Markle had “brainwashed” Prince Harry. The allegations surfaced as tensions within the royal family escalated following the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s 2018 wedding.

Rising Tensions and Alleged Confrontation

According to Bower’s account, the relationship between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and the rest of the royal family soured quickly after their wedding in Windsor. A tense exchange reportedly occurred between Prince Harry and his brother, Prince William, during which Meghan Markle reportedly told William, “If you don’t mind, get your finger out of my face.”

Camilla’s Concerns and Changing Dynamics

Following this incident, Camilla allegedly confided in a friend, stating that Meghan Markle had “brainwashed” Prince Harry. The book also details concerns from Prince William and Kate Middleton about the speed of the relationship and Meghan’s potential influence over Harry. Sources cited by Bower claim Meghan lamented Harry’s limited chances of becoming king and her own prospects of never becoming queen.

Harry’s Transformation and Family Changes

Bower’s book suggests a noticeable shift in Prince Harry’s personality, stating he became increasingly focused on seeking revenge and mirroring Meghan’s emotional extremes. He reportedly distanced himself from old friends and even changed his phone number without informing his family. The book also notes Harry’s reaction to the scandal surrounding Prince Andrew and his association with Jeffrey Epstein, expressing fear that William might remove the Sussexes’ titles and effectively banish them from Britain.

Response from the Sussexes

A spokesperson for Prince Harry has dismissed Bower’s book as a “deranged conspiracy.”
