Insight has just dropped into what Meghan Markle actually felt during her time at Highgrove with King Charles and Queen Camilla.

For those unversed with the rest of the guestlist, the only people present where the King and Queen, alongside Meghan’s family, Prince Harry, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

But now, weeks after the meeting took place a source tells RadarOnline the truth.

According to them, from Meghan's perspective, the whole thing felt “more like a managed operation than a warm family get together. There was a very clear message from the palace that this had to be strictly controlled – no drama, no cameras, no sense that this was anything other than a quiet, off the record visit.”

“On the surface that sounds sensible, but the way it played out was that every detail was dictated to them,” they also highlighted in respect to Meghan.

But more than that “they were given a timetable for when they could arrive, told which entrance to use, how long they could stay, and which rooms they would be in. Even casual things – taking the children for a walk in the gardens, or popping into a different part of the house – were effectively off limits unless cleared in advance. For Meghan, it felt as though there was a choreography for every step and conversation, right down to who they could sit with and for how long.”

Before concluding they also said. “instead of feeling embraced, she felt they were being steered and monitored, and that loss of spontaneity really underlined the sense that they weren't being treated like family coming home.”
