A royal author has claimed that Meghan Markle was allegedly 'hysterical' after an interview, after having received strict instructions from Prince Harry.
In 2017, just two months before their engagement was made public, the now-Duchess of Sussex was interviewed by Vanity Fair and journalist Sam Kashner.
Royal author Tom Bower claims that Harry had told his future wife not to discuss three key topics in the interview: Donald Trump, race, and their relationship.
In his book Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War between the Windsors, Mr Bower alleged: "Kashner arrived at Meghan's home and was told that his interviewee had been given strict instructions by both Harry and Keleigh Thomas Morgan [a publicist at PR firm Sunshine Sachs].
"Knowing that Diana and Sarah Ferguson had ruined their reputations in interviews, Harry had asked Meghan to keep quiet about sensitive subjects - Donald Trump, race, their relationship and especially himself. He was not to be mentioned."
Despite Meghan gracing the cover of the prestigious magazine, the headline 'She's Just Wild About Harry' contradicted the Duke of Sussex's wishes for their relationship to remain out of the spotlight, reports the Express.
The author went on to claim: "Within hours, Meghan called Ken Sunshine [founder of Sunshine Sachs Consultants] and Keleigh Thomas Morgan. Hysterically, she described Buckingham Palace's fury at 'Wild About Harry'.
"Sunshine Sachs said Meghan should have ensured that her comments about Harry were removed. Why wasn't the focus on her philanthropy and activism?
"Ken Sunshine feared that Meghan would fire his agency. Puzzled why Buckingham Palace was angry, he called the magazine's editor to deliver what he imagined to be the ultimate threat. 'You're going to have to deal with the Queen on this,'” he said.
"The furious monarch, he imagined, like Trump, would pick up the phone and berate the editor. The editor was bemused."
