Meghan Markle’s private text leak required ‘apt approval by Prince William: report

The private texts between Meghan Markle and her former communications secretary needed Prince William’s express permission, reports reveal.

The topic arose during a conversation between Dickie Arbiter and the True Royalty’s The Royal Beat podcast host.

There he commented on whether the disclosure of Meghan Markle’s private messages, by Jason Knauf, would have warranted the need of written permission by Prince William and Kate Middleton.

There Mr Arbiter fired away saying, “I would put my money on it.”

Even royal author Duncan Larcombe backed his claim up and added, “Lawyers from the Mail on Sunday would have approached Jason Knauf, knowing that these emails existed. That would have been the point.”

“Most likely, Jason would have gone to William and Kate. “He would not have cooperated with those lawyers without their definite knowledge.”

For those unversed, Mr Knauf is the same expert who accused Meghan of bullying during her time within the royal family and is still employed under the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s Royal Foundation charity.
