Meghan Markle: The career of… the UK’s Beyonce that ended in disgrace

by

“Meghan thought she was going to be the UK’s Beyoncé. Being a member of the royal family would give her that recognition. Whereas what he found out was that there were so many rules so ridiculous that he couldn’t even do the things he could without the title, which is difficult.”

Excerpt from Valentine Low’s book “Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown” published by “The Times” claims that Meghan Markle believed she would become Britain’s Beyoncé when she married Harry. However, she grew disillusioned with the strict protocols and rules as a member of the royal family, and she herself felt increasingly “squashed and misunderstood” by the palace.

A former palace official said: “I think Meghan thought she was going to be the Beyoncé of the UK. Being a member of the royal family would give her that recognition. Whereas what he found out was that there were so many rules so ridiculous that he couldn’t even do the things he could without the title, which is difficult.”.

Another source claimed that the two “worlds”, royal family and celebrity, were impossible to coexist. In particular they said that Meghan could not live up to the model of a working member of the royal family, since the palace could not accept “what she wanted to be”.

Also, according to the book, Queen Elizabeth was forced to step down for Megxit and told the couple it was “either in or out” at the crucial Sandringham meeting where the Sussexes’ future was decided, while the book’s author said the royal family met at the alleged ‘Sandringham summit’ five days after Harry and Meghan announced their Megxit plans on January 8, 2020.
