Back in the day, I actually thought Princess Anne got along pretty well with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. I thought Anne was fond of her redheaded nephew, and that Anne seemed to like Meghan’s fresh attitude within the firm. Since 2020, “royal sources” have done the most to dispute those beliefs. According to those sources, Anne was the one advising King Charles on evicting the Sussexes from Frogmore Cottage. They also kept saying that Anne should be “sent” to Montecito to “deal with” the Sussexes. My guess is that Anne’s name keeps cropping up because both Charles and Prince William want to drag as many family members into their “we hate Harry and Meghan” fixations. Speaking of, NewsNation had a hilariously stupid story about Anne recently bitching about Meghan.
Princess Anne is known amongst royal circles as not only level-headed, but able to get a good read on people pretty quickly.
And my sources say she sized up Meghan Markle almost instantly.
One source was recently at a party with the princess when someone asked about Prince Harry’s wife; a chill went over the crowd.
“Everyone just looked at each other with utter disgust,” my source said.
The words expressed to my source were: “We can’t say too much, but (Meghan) was incapable of fitting in with anyone because she couldn’t cope with following simple rules as she felt her way was better.”
My source added: “Once (Meghan) realised nobody was interested in her way, she would hide away and just use her ways with hers and Harry’s staff. Until they wanted out of her presence because it was completely bonkers.”
“How dare Meghan want to conduct business via email, our tried-and-true royal carrier pigeon system is the Only Way To Do Things, why can’t Meghan follow the RULES?” Nevermind that we saw in real time that “the rules” were made up out of thin air and/or the rules were only selectively applied to Meghan as a way to demoralize her and denigrate her. Something else to keep in mind is how all of these people suck so hard and they can’t even hide their bigotry and racism at this point. Six years after the Sussexes left and a hush still falls across royal circles as they stammer to find “the reason” why they hated Meghan. She couldn’t follow simple rules! Which rules? Be specific.
Another thing to keep in mind is the abundance of sympathy Anne and other royals have given to Prince Andrew, a credibly accused human trafficker, degenerate, PDFile and a man currently being investigated for espionage and sex crimes. But Andrew’s mental health!!

When a woman is described as sizing up another woman at first meeting it does make the one who sizes up look judgmental. Anne is not perfect herself.
Indeed! That line proves that Meghan was never truly welcomed. Plus as someone who claims to follow the rules, what are the rules about falling for your equerry while still married?
Total fantasy. Anne is way too much of an old pro to ever say anything like that. Also, I don’t believe she thought it either. Game recognise game, hard workers recognise hard workers.
Now, if you’d told me she said that about Buttons McMumbles, I believe you.
100% agree. This is the woman who didn’t want her children to have titles. And even if it was true, all it does is continue to make the monarchy look foolish. Charles can accept bags of money but OMG, Megan missed a silly rule.
@Gloriana: The notion that Anne didn’t want titles for her children is a myth. Her children were not allowed to have titles because she’s a woman. Only children of male royals get titles.
@amy bee, Anne could have chosen to have titles for her husband/their children just as Princess Margaret did. Princess Margaret’s husband was given the title Earl of Snowdon upon their marriage and their children were addressed as Lady Sarah and Viscount Linley. No reason to believe that Elizabeth didn’t offer the same to Anne and her husband/children as has been reported for decades.
I don’t believe this , Anne always seemed to get on very well with Harry and Megan, in fact Megan seemed to.chat to Anne at length at times….Prince Philip famously said , there is always family fall outs in most families, never seemed to bother him ,.l believe Anne has de same opinion.
Funny you never see her talking long to Katie,.in fact when they where at a event together they didnt seem to chat either !!
I bet she did and they replaced her name with Meg’s for the article.
I agree that Anne wouldn’t be spouting off at a party about Meghan. She knows it would be tabloid fodder. And this is NewsNation. I don’t even know what that is.
Anne was not the one giving Meghan the cold shoulder in public, unlike Kate.
The most we ever got from Anne was an interview where she said that sometimes you don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Which also applies to William and Kate and their bs impact events.
There was a similar article only it was about keen sizing up Meghan. Next another story about how the late queen sized up meghan.
Imagine this woman who is credited with being the hardest working royal for just showing up and waving at events being disgusted with anyone. What is disgusting to me is how this old woman is credited with being hard working.
She works harder than WIlly (and I doubt she said any of this)
Of all the things that never happened, this didn’t happen the most. Some random “source” went up to Anne at a party and just asked about relations with Meghan? Like that would ever happen. 😂
It’s news nation. Basically, the enquirer. Its fiction. Just because it’s printed doesn’t make it true.
It’s petty season!
Gosh I’d forgotten how much I liked this outfit on Meghan, simply gorgeous! All the stuffy, entitled, toffee twats really need to stuff a sock in it.
@ Harla, “toffee twats”, love it. A perfect turn of phrase!
Someday, we’ll get a story about how a royal-adjacent person thought Meghan was really nice.
This will not be that day.
It’s Anne’s turn to ride Meghan’s backs for the British press.
At this point in time we dont expect much else from the members of that family, however i somehow expected a little more understanding from her as one who broke barriers in order to compete in sports, i am beging to think that certain ways sets in when one gets older i’m just hoping i dont turn to the dark side when i get older lol i can see myself being a little clint eastwood on the front porch being grumpy
I doubt Anne said any of this, but unfortunately, I have known women whose first instinct is to close the door behind them as soon as they are let in. Most women are holding that door wide open and helping other women make it through, but there are always the few who feel that only they deserve to enter a space previously closed to women. And Anne strikes me as one of those few because she was poorly raised. That trash family only thinks about themselves.
If true, gross. Although the support of andrew is also gross.
Anne strikes me as the sort of person who, if she took issue with the way something was being done, she would take it up with that person, face-to-face, at the time of the alleged faux pas. She’s not going to bitch about it behind their back to some loose-lipped “source” (whose sounds suspiciously like her rage monster eldest nephew) nearly a decade later. Now, could I see her finding Meghan’s general upbeat nature and earnestness to be A LOT? Yeah, maybe. But I think she’d most likely acknowledge Meghan’s work ethic and commitment, and that’s something that Anne values enough that they’d probably get on rather well just based on that.
Yes I agree about Anne, she would tell Meghan straight from the horse’s mouth if she were unhappy. Mind you I didn’t like the way she reacted to Andrew, if that is true as well? Who knows, certainly don’t rely on the DM for anything.
We have seen Anne and Meghan interact in public and it seemed nothing but cordial. They sat next to each other at Eugenie’s wedding and spoke and it did not look like Anne was disgusted with anyone.
None of these people are elaborate actors to be able to hide their feelings.
Maybe that horse kick to the head was Karma, she’s just another overly entitled royal who no one would notice if she wasn’t born into that family her biggest accomplishment is who gave birth to her.. also since the information of her affair with her brothers mistresses husband just makes her just as gross and disgusting as Chuck and his mistress/wife. Meghan is a saint compared to these people and the fact that they say anything about her is laughable considering their past actions.. then you have her currently protecting the brother that belongs in a 10×10 cell she is beyond redemption imo.
Didn’t her son in law not follow rules when he went on that reality show.
It is OK for Mike to break the rules but Meghan isn’t allowed to, even if Meghan didn’t break any rules. Meghan only has to be accused, proof is not necessary.
Pure fiction, from the calculated non-specific attribution (“The words expressed to my source were: “We can’t say too much, but ….”) to the complete absence of details about what protocol Meghan supposedly broke. So who said what, again?
Fake.
Pure fantasy. Language drafted by libel lawyers. British media can print anything as long as it comes with a disclaimer. Do bear that in mind. Then they can always claim they were simply victims of Chinese whispers. If you don’t mind that turn of phrase. Oy vey.
It sounds so fake it’s hilarious. And also it is written as if Anne was there when a chill went around the room. I still don’t get how they don’t understand how bad they are all acting that a Black woman who just wanted to do good somehow broke down the Royal Family. They are all nuts.
Look the fact is no one wanted Meghan to marry Harry and the Queen only gave him permission because there was a great fear that Harry would leave if she had said no. Diana said that everyone in that family was nice to her until the wedding. I have no doubt that the Royal Family did everything in their power to stop the wedding and when that didn’t work they did everything they could to force her to leave. The only thing they didn’t plan for was Harry leaving and then choosing to remain outside of the family after the one year review.
This is a recycled hit piece courtesy of Bulliam. All this does is make the royals look like pathetic losers.
These “articles” are starting to sound like the daily stark raving mad journal entries of the criminally insane or chronically intoxicated. They’re not even bothering to make sure that these journal entries are grammatically correct, logical and coherent. They are more careful with the phrasing of these lies since Harry and Meghan molly whopped them in several court cases though. But they’re still pathetically obsessed with them: “Dear journal, today that horrible Meghan did this…. And Harry dared to do ____”
I previously said that I wondered if the RRs placed bets on who could come up with the most outrageous lies about the Sussexes and then published those fantasies. Sadly, it appears that those wagers have significantly increased this year. Stay safe Sussexes!
Meghan was so eager to please she did everything they told her to do, both simple and complicated. I was disgusted seeing Anne in uniform when Harry, who actually had served, was stripped of his. IF she is so reasonable, she should have protested treating a veteran so badly. It is also a very simple rule not to get too close to horse’s hooves or one might get knocked in the head or knocked out. Just saying.
So a chill went through the room at the mere mention of the Black duchess? Good going, everyone — you’re really nailing the “very much not a racist family” thing.
Meghan really did break these people’s brains. Like brain matter splattered all over their castles. Whether this information is true or not, I’ve never seen anyone have such an impact on this ratchet family like Meghan, even more so than Diana, because she escaped and has flourished. She needs nothing from these people who trade on her name for every ounce of publicity they can muster. It’s beyond astounding and pathetic. I believe this institution will not survive into the future with George as King. They can’t sell the public what they doesn’t want or need.
She has a criminal record.
I really hope that this article is untrue. Never really liked Princess Anne but I did have some respect for her. To see her going back to work when her face was still bruised was something to see.
Anne does not work harder, she works more ,She needs the BRF to be relevant. You would think with the fall out of Andrew and his ex-wife they would welcome Harry and Megan as a couple with out the Epstein history and negativity.The monarchy has to look around at what’s left of its realm .I
British diverse multicultural people would support the RFs person of color family member .Unfortunately the white pearl clutching Brits are killing their traditions one creepy disaster at a time.
Emma, yes, indeed. You said it perfectly.
The only people in that family who have issues with Harry and Meghan are the 4 senior royals and its because they were and still are jealous of the attention Harry and Meghan receive. They didn’t believe an African American woman should be better than them at the “job”, more popular than them and that she should have been on her knees groveling to them grateful she was allowed in their presence.
Everything else is just nonsense to distract from that fact.
