Meghan Markle's Royal Dreams Remain Out of Reach
Meghan Markle, who relocated to the US with her husband Prince Harry in 2020, allegedly aspired to be queen, according to royal author Tom Bower.
The royal commentator offered insights into Meghan Markle's longing to return to the royal fold, years after she and Prince Harry stepped down as senior working royals.
"Kate is glowing, Kate is successful, Kate is popular. She has everything that Meghan wanted," Bower previously told Closer Magazine.
When the former Suits star married into the royal family in 2018, she had envisioned doing things "her way," but Bower emphasized that there's only one accepted path.
"There's only one way and that's the royal way," he declared.
The Duke of Sussex, currently fifth in line for the British throne, holds a position that Meghan dislikes, marking a significant departure from her initial aspirations.
Conversely, Ingrid Seward told Newsweek, "I was so surprised when I heard the queen liked Meghan, but she did. Meghan's a smart lady whatever people think of her."
The author continued, "She knew exactly how to butter up the queen. Even Harry gave us a little glimpse of it by mentioning the dogs."
During their engagement interview in November 2017, Harry told Meghan, "the corgis took to you straight away," while Meghan added they were "just laying on my feet during tea, it was very sweet."
"Maybe she had a few treats in her handbag for them," Seward said. "Harry actually said Meghan was a great hit with the dogs. They always yap at him but were all over Meghan. I don't think the queen actually saw very much of them. Meghan, being American, used to ring her up, which a lot of her children don't do.
"I think she kept in touch with her because she knew it was important and then she met Meghan's mother."
