Prince Harry was ‘dragged around like a performing seal’ by Meghan Markle, Ingrid Seward claims

Prince Harry was being dragged “around like a royal performing seal” within just four months of meeting his wife Meghan Markle, Ingrid Seward has claimed.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex began dating in July 2016, according to news agency Reuters.

The BBC reports that after just two dates, the “already-smitten royal” decided to whisk the American actress off to Botswana – a country which has placed a central role in their fairytale romance.

The pair enjoyed five nights camping under the African stars, and Prince Harry later told the broadcaster he believed the “stars were aligned” when he met her.

And according to the royal biographer, when the couple went public on Halloween, Meghan “moved at the speed of lightning.”

She claims that “mesmerised” Prince Harry doted on his wife throughout their “whirlwind courtship” and is “obsessed.”

Ingrid made the claims at the launch of her book, Prince Philip Revealed: A Man Of His Century in 2020, according to The Daily Star.

She commented: “God Almighty, Meghan has really moved at the speed of lightning. It was a whirlwind courtship, it was pretty quick.

“I don’t like her for it, but I do admire her for being able to pack so much into such a short time.”

Harry is totally mesmerised by her; he would follow her to the ends of the earth, that’s my feeling.”

“He’s obsessed. He’s being dragged around like a royal performing seal. And Meghan has got to hang on to Harry because he’s her entrée – what is she otherwise, but a starlet?”

She also claimed that Prince Harry “lives up to the redhead image of a hothead”, but notes that deep down, he’s actually “very sensitive.”
