Since their relationship became public, Meghan Markle has been repeatedly compared to the late Princess Diana. A new book has revealed that Prince Harry hoped his family would see similarities between Meghan and his mother, but that didn’t happen.
In the book “Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors” by investigative journalist Tom Bower published earlier this year, many shocking revelations about the couple were revealed. One of them was that Prince Harry had hoped that Princess Diana’s sisters and close friends would recognize the similarities between Meghan Markle and his mother. However, that wish did not come true, leaving the prince feeling “disappointed”.
They even suggested that Meghan might have trouble fitting in with the British Royal Family. “Since the Vanity Fair article that cast doubt on Meghan, the actress has found that her Kensington Palace neighbors are even less sympathetic to her,” Bower wrote.
He continued: “At that time, Harry introduced Meghan to Diana’s two sisters, Jane and Sarah, and her best friend, Julia Samuel. Harry assumed that Diana’s family and friends would see similarities between Diana and his future wife. Both, he said, had similar problems. He was disappointed. No one agreed that his vulnerable mother had anything in common with his girlfriend. More frustrating for him was that they thought Meghan would not be suitable for the Royal Family.”
The author added: “Their insecurities were voiced by Charles Spencer, Diana’s younger brother. At William’s request, Earl Spencer intervened. Three times married, Earl Spencer advised his nephew to reconsider his haste to marry. His advice provoked a fierce reaction. ‘This is going to be really difficult,’ Harry later mused about establishing Meghan’s place in the family.”
