Queen Elizabeth was ‘pleased’ Meghan Markle didn’t attend Prince Philip’s funeral

The late Queen Elizabeth was allegedly ‘rather pleased’ that Meghan Markle didn’t show up for Prince Philip’s funeral with Prince Harry in 2021, a royal expert has claimed.

The sensational comment came from royal author Tom Bower in response to another royal author Gyles Brandreth’s comments that the Queen was very concerned about Prince Harry and Meghan being ‘too in love’.

When asked to comment on Brandreth’s comment and whether it was true, Bower told GB News: “My sources told me very emphatically that they believe this to be absolutely true that the Queen was very disgruntled with Meghan.”

“That, of course, is why she expelled them so to speak in the great Megxit debate and sending them in 2020 when they were stripped of all their honorary and other titles in Britain, denied any protection, denied any finance and told they couldn't serve as royals if they went to California,” he added.

Bower continued: “So, I don't think for a moment that the Queen was uncritical of Meghan. In fact, she was rather pleased that she hadn't come to Prince Philip's funeral… But I do believe that she was critical and rather concerned by Harry's over-the-top admiration and love for Meghan.”

“And of course, she wasn't the only one. So was Prince William, so was Prince Charles, so was Charles Spencer. Everyone thought Harry had gone overboard,” Bower further shared.
