Queen Elizabeth II was ‘terribly sad’ about Prince Harry choices

Queen Elizabeth II was upset at the opportunity Meghan Markle and Prince Harry gave up to live a life in America.

Her Majesty, who passed away in 2022, gave a world of opportunities to the Sussex family, who instead decided to pursue their own lives in private and quit their position as senior Royals.

Writing in his new book, Elizabeth II: In Private. In Public . The Inside Story, author Robert Hardman writes: “She was enormously upset and terribly sad about a wasted opportunity, but she acted decisively.”

As Hardman explained: “Despite giving the couple a cooling-off period, [the Queen] privately conceded that she didn’t think they would change their minds because ‘they took the dogs ’.”

The royal expert further wrote about Her Majesty: “Her shy father was a spare, unexpectedly thrust into kingship by the abdication of his brother. Her sister, Margaret, was a spare, and Elizabeth was always her greatest defender.”
