Analyzing the claims that Meghan Markle recently made, a royal editor believed it would affect Prince Harry's relationship with her grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. When the Duchess of Sussex claimed that she felt unprotected by the Royal Family over the United Kingdom tabloids' false accusations about her when she was pregnant, it might have a significant impact on the monarchy.
Meghan Markle's latest assertions were part of her court documents for her case against the MailOnline and Mail on Sunday's publisher, Associated Newspapers Limited. In an interview on This Morning, Camilla Tominey said that this court case would try to prove whether she intentionally wrote the letter to her father, Thomas Markle, for the public to see.
The royal expert revealed one of the authors of the Sussexes' upcoming book, Finding Freedom, Omid Scobie, allegedly, claimed that he thought the controversial letter was made to be publicized so that the public could see how the former actress tried her best to reconnect with her dad. As the story at the time was Thomas Markle had been "completely abandoned," the note's content would say otherwise, Mirror Online noted.
However, Tominey tried to show that the main issue here would be the effect of the recent revelations on their "relationship with their royal in-laws." She wondered what would be its impact on the Duke of Sussex's relationship with Her Majesty herself.
The award-winning journalist believed that if Queen Elizabeth saw the headlines, she would feel devastated by the thought that Meghan Markle felt they were never supportive. She went on to say that the Queen even took drastic measures to make her feel welcomed.
Before the former actress tied the knot with Prince Harry, Her Royal Highness herself broke the tradition by inviting her to Sandringham at Christmas. She also gifted the Frogmore Cottage to the couple.
Hence, Tominey believed the royals might now be thinking that they tried their best to make her feel warmly welcomed. But, Meghan Markle was the one who always wanted to "break away and do things differently."
Aside from feeling unprotected in her battle against the British tabloid, according to Today, the former Suits star's legal team claimed in the court filing that she also felt "vulnerable" when she was pregnant with Archie. In her case against the Daily Mail, the mother-of-one filed a lawsuit over the publication of her private letter for her father after he failed to attend her wedding in 2018.
Meghan Markle also claimed in the legal filing that she had no idea that one of her friends would mention the said letter in an anonymous interview with People magazine. Prince Harry's wife tried to clarify that she only learned about the publication's article when it was published in February 2019.
