Over half of the 3,009 people polled, 54 per cent, also believe that the former actress is using Prince Harry for “self-promotion” and to increase her status.

Almost half of those questioned, 47 per cent, want Harry and Meghan to be stripped of their titles by the Queen because of their bombshell interview. 

When asked if they think if they have had “unfair” treatment by the Royal Family, only 35 per cent think that Harry and Meghan have been treated badly.

Buckingham Palace has said it is ‘very concerned’ by bullying allegations made against Meghan Markle

And almost half, 43 per cent, believe the allegations that Meghan did bully her aides whilst working at Buckingham Palace. 

It comes as explosive bust-ups between Meghan and her aides during her Australian royal tour are to be the focus of Buckingham Palace’s bullying probe.

The 16-day trip in 2018 is said to have seen a string of clashes between Meghan and her staff.

At one point Meghan is claimed to have lost her temper with an assistant and a hot drink was knocked over.

The allegations also include Meghan becoming upset at being given only a wing of the Australian Governor’s mansion to stay in, rather than the entire property.

A month after the tour, the couple’s first as a royal couple, Meghan’s personal assistant Melissa Toubati resigned, the second member of staff within a year. 

The couple’s former press secretary Jason Knauf emailed a senior aide to Prince William to complain: “I am very concerned that the Duchess was able to bully two PAs out of the household in the past year.”

Meghan denies allegations of bullying.

The Royal Family is braced for more bombshell claims in tonight’s broadcast amid an escalating war of words. 

And aides said the Queen has not been given an advance copy of Harry and Meghan’s chat with Oprah Winfrey – instead “everyone will watch at the same time”.

The Duchess of Sussex accused Buckingham Palace of spreading lies about her, plunging the the family into its worst crisis in decades.
