Meghan Markle is said to be ‘inconsolable’ and ‘crying non-stop’ after she was blasted by Princess Diana’s biographer – but not everyone is sympathetic

Meghan Markle is reportedly ‘inconsolable’ following a harsh critique from Princess Diana’s biographer – leaving some Royal enthusiasts echoing the same sentiment.

Tina Brown, former editor of Vanity Fair, appeared on The Ankler podcast. She criticised the Duchess of Sussex, saying “she has the worst judgment of anyone in the entire world” and “she’s flawless about getting it all wrong”.

Understandably, Meghan was reportedly upset by these remarks. Royal commentator Neil Sean claimed that she was “inconsolable with tears” and “outraged” that someone she “admired” would make such comments.

Sean said: “According to a source Meghan was bereft because she’d admired Tina Brown and in particular read her books simply because of her connection to Princess Diana and get this because she wanted to find a better connection so she could understand her husband Prince Harry and how he felt about his mother.”

Magazine USA echoed these claims in a TikTok video, stating: “Meghan Markle is ‘inconsolable’ and ‘crying nonstop’ after being slammed by Princess Diana’s biographer Tina Brown”.

Royal fans were quick to sympathise with the Duchess, with one saying: “Diana would’ve no doubt loved her after all she personally went through between Charles other royals and the paparazzi,” accompanied by a sad-face emoji.

Meghan Markle has faced allegations of causing tears on more than one occasion.

Earlier in the year, an insider claimed she earned the moniker ‘Duchess Difficult’ from US staff, who say she “terrifies” and “belittles” those around her

A confidant close to the Sussexes informed the Hollywood Reporter: “Meghan belittles people, she doesn’t take advice,” while another source contended: “I’ve watched her reduce grown men to tears.”

Perhaps the most notorious accusation against Meghan was that she made Kate Middleton cry before her marriage to Prince Harry. Allegedly, Meghan rebuked Kate over concerns about Princess Charlotte’s flower girl dress, suggesting Kate had “baby brain”.

However, during a tell-all with Oprah Winfrey post-royal exit, the Duchess of Sussex insisted “the reverse happened” and that she was the one left in tears. This version of events received support in Prince Harry’s memoir, ‘Spare’, where he described finding Meghan “on the floor” after the dispute.

Neither the Royal Family nor the Sussexes have publicly responded to the allegations made by Harry and Meghan, or to the claims regarding Meghan’s conduct towards her staff.
