Queen Camilla’s true feelings on the Sussex’s has reportedly been revealed after Harry and Meghan Markle quit the Royal Family
Queen Camilla “doesn’t discuss” the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle rift with the Royal Family after the Sussex’s sensationally quit and jetted off to California.
Despite Harry alleging his stepmother was “dangerous” and a “villain” in his controversial memoir, Spare, and claiming she sacrificed him on her “PR altar”, it isn’t something Camilla discusses.
A source close to Camilla has revealed what the Queen did while Harry and Meghan Markle were rallying against the Royal Family.

Speaking to Newsweek, the source said there was “never a fixation at the Palace” about them, and Harry and Meghan are never the topic of conversation, adding “it’s almost never discussed”.
They explained: “Far more thought and hiatus is stirred up in the media around what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are or aren’t doing on any given day than was ever a fixation at the Palace, where it’s almost never discussed.”
In Spare, it was revealed he begged his father, King Charles, not to marry Camilla and even wondered if she would become his “wicked stepmother.”
Overall, Camilla is mentioned 60 times in the memoir, with one passage detailing how he and Prince William “sensed the presence” of a third party in their parents’ relationship.
He claimed that his brother was left feeling “tremendous guilt” when King Charles and Camilla got together.
It comes after the release of the Duchess’s Netflix series, With Love, Meghan, which reportedly included a series of “subtle digs” at the Royal Family.
Branding expert Lynn Carratt, of Press Box PR said: “Her subtle digs to the Royal Family, and to Kate and William perhaps in particular, seem to be, ‘Look at me, I’m happy thank you very much, living my picture-perfect Californian life, Harry and I made the right decision by quitting the Royal Family.'”
One such veiled swipe at the family came as the Duchess spoke of how she missed her “creativity”, saying: “I just want to raise a glass to you guys. This feels like a new chapter that I’m so excited that I’m able to share and I’ve been able to learn from all of you.
“So I just thank you for all the love and support. And here we go, there’s a business! All of that is part of that creativity that I’ve missed so much, so thank you for loving me so much and celebrating with me.”
