THE Queen dismissed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Oprah interview as “nonsense”, Prince Philip’s friend has claimed in a new book.
Her Majesty is said to have brush off the damning claims made by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in the bombshell interview last year.
Meghan and Harry made some damning claims in their interview with Oprah last year
It’s been said the Queen branded the interview as ‘nonsense’
And Prince Philip’s reaction has also been revealed in an upcoming biography by Gyles Brandreth called Elizabeth: An Intimate Portrait.
It claims the pair acted very differently to the couple’s hurtful accusations – including that a member of the Royal Family apparently made the comments about Archie’s race.
An excerpt of the book, published in MailOnline says: “The ever-pragmatic Monarch was even sanguine about the bombshell interview the couple gave to Oprah Winfrey, expressing more concern about Harry’s wellbeing than what she dismissed as ‘this television nonsense’.
Meanwhile it claims Prince Philip felt that the interview was “madness” but the Queen was “relaxed, dismissing it”.
The book explains in contrary to Meghan’s claims Queen was “devoted” to Harry and that and “she truly wished him well in his new life abroad”.
And the book says this love was also extended to Meghan when she was brought into the family.
An expert of the book, published in MailOnline says: “The truth is that when her grandson told her he was marrying Meghan Markle, she was truly delighted by the prospect.”
It comes after it was revealed the Queen secretly fought painful cancer in the final year of her life.
Her late Majesty is said to have had a form of bone marrow cancer, which symptoms include bone pain, before her death on September 8.
Her death certificate, released in September, officially recorded her cause of death as “old age”.
But Mr Brandreth wrote: “I had heard that the Queen had a form of myeloma — bone marrow cancer — which would explain her tiredness and weight loss and those ‘mobility issues’ we were often told about during the last year or so of her life.”
