Elizabeth II was not at all opposed to the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, contrary to rumors.
In any case, this is what we learn in the new biography of the monarch,
Elizabeth: An Intimate Portrait
, by British author Gyles Brandreth.
On the other hand, the Duke of Sussex's grandmother was worried for a somewhat surprising reason.
"She was worried that Prince Harry was 'a bit too much in love' with Meghan Markle.
But she never went further than that in what she had a hard time saying about the Duchess of Sussex,” reads the book, excerpts of which were shared by the
New York Post
.
The Queen was also delighted when Harry told her he was going to marry the former
Suits
star .
“She did everything to make her future granddaughter feel welcome”
On the contrary, according to the biography, Elizabeth II had a very special affection for the wife of her grandson.
“She loved Meghan and told a lot of people.
And she did everything she could to make her future granddaughter-in-law feel welcome,” the author claims.
And that affection hasn't changed, even after the interview with Oprah Winfrey, where the Sussexes didn't shy away from bringing shame to the royal family, revealing the racism in Buckingham and the lack of support they received. have faced in their conflict with the tabloids.
"I can tell you, because I know it, that the Queen has always been more concerned about Harry's welfare than about 'this television nonsense', meaning both the interview of Oprah Winfrey - which caused so much controversy - and the lucrative contract that the Sussexes made with Netflix", concludes Gyles Brandreth.
Elizabeth: An Intimate Portrait
is due out in England on December 8.
