Meghan put 'sliver of ice' in Harry's heart making him behave like a 'juvenile', says royal biographer
Royal biographer Angela Levin suspects that Meghan Markle might have a hand to play when it came to Prince Harry's "juvenile and angry" behavior that he has been depicting lately.
She said she was surprised at how the Sussex chose to take a jab at the British monarch after she banned them from using the word "royal" in any of their brand names, which meant that they had to rebrand "Sussex Royal."
"'The Queen doesn’t own the word Royal,’ they say in this ill-advised intervention – if any advice was taken, which I doubt," Levin wrote in an op-ed for Daily Mail. "It is an expression of childish irritation that insults the most admired person in British public life. And this, more than anything, is what gives the game away."
The fact that the phrasing of their statement, following the announcement from the Buckingham Palace, seemed to suggest that they were "trying to take on the Queen, whose lifetime of duty to her nation is admired around the world," perplexed Levin.
"My experience of Prince Harry is that he is charismatic and intuitive, a man with impeccable manners who is full of consideration to others and lights up in the presence of those who need his help," she said. "What on earth has happened to that Harry? Why is he in the strange and invidious position of seeming to side with his wife over a loving family that includes the 93-year-old grandmother he dearly loves and who has been his rock?"
Levin added that there was no way that the Sussexes has not anticipated to deal with pushback from the monarchy, which has "protected itself for many hundreds of years and hopes to survive for hundreds of years to come." With that came "restrictions and responsibilities" that simply cannot be dismissed.
"Remember, this is a couple so determined to be with one another that they were prepared to leave the Royal Family at almost any cost – indeed in such a rush that they omitted to tell the Queen, Prince Charles or Prince William before they announced their departure to the world. Today, however, they seem sullen and resentful," Levin continued.
She recalled having a conversation with Harry where Princess Diana's youngest son had told her that he "was fed up with feeling trapped in the ‘goldfish bowl’ of fame and that he would prefer to live in Africa, helping save endangered animals." This was why Levin was confused because Harry seemed to now "be courting the publicity he hates" and "preferring to present himself as a victim."
All of these pointed to the obvious conclusion. "I am afraid that Meghan is an impulsive woman and, as her past behavior suggests, when she’s had enough of something or someone, she simply ‘moves on’... I am reminded of Hans Christian Andersen’s tale of The Snow Queen, as beautiful as she is cold, who leaves a sliver of ice in a young man’s heart. Captive, a prisoner in her frozen desert, he is angry and indifferent to those who truly love him," Levin said.
