Meghan Markle’s ‘thinly veiled threat’ to royals in bombshell interview

Meghan Markle sent a message to the royal family when she sat down for an interview with The Cut, according to one royal expert, who said the Duchess included a ‘thinly-veiled threat’

Meghan Markle raised eyebrows with comments she made to The Cut – with some critics suggesting she included a number of ‘thinly-veiled threats’ directed towards the royal family.

The interview was released at the end of August 2022 – just a few days before the death of Her Majesty the Queen. In it, Meghan spoke about her life in California after quitting the royal family and revealed that she hadn’t signed an NDA that might prevent her from speaking out. She also said she found a diary that she had kept during her time as a royal at Frogmore Cottage when she returned for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

Speaking on True Royalty TV’s The Royal Beat, Sunday Times Royal Editor Roya Nikkhah dissected Meghan’s “telling” comments. Roya said: “The thinly veiled threats that came in [Meghan’s interview with The Cut] …I think [she] probably hopes it does [feel threatening] to the Royal Family… [But] I think there’s a lot of eye-rolling, going, ‘We’re used to this by now’… [But] that phrase, ‘I have a lot to say until I don’t’ and, ‘I’ve never signed anything that restricts me from talking’… there was a very strong inference there.

“And, of course, the reminder that she keeps a journal, and [her] revelation that, ‘When we came back to Windsor, to Frogmore Cottage for the Jubilee, I rediscovered my journal that I’d left there’ – I was astonished to discover that she had left a highly private diary behind in Windsor, rather than taking it back. She’s mentioned a couple of times in the last year or two that she kept a journal, and I think there is a very strong inference that Meghan could write her own memoir.”

Roya further added that she believed Meghan’s story about returning to Frogmore Cottage was an excuse to talk about the journal. Most of their belongings were packed up a long time before they even left for Canada and America, so packing up was done,” she said. “Certainly when Eugenie lived there for a while with her husband and child, they had the run of the house.

“I think that most of Harry and Meghan’s belongings that remained, which weren’t many, were stored away. So I don’t think she came back and packed up the whole house… I read it as an opportunity for her to mention the journal.” Ever since Prince Harry released his bombshell memoir Spare, there’s been speculation that Meghan would follow suit and write her own tell-all book.

In Spare, Harry railed against his royal relatives, especially his father King Charles and brother Prince William . And it seems it was the final straw for the royals. According to reports, Harry’s calls and letters to his father now go unanswered . And his attempts to connect with his brother, William — through texts, calls, and messages — are similarly ignored. The family rift, which first became public in 2020 when Prince Harry and his wife stepped back from their royal duties, has been marked by blistering attacks from the couple – in their interview with Oprah , their Netflix series, and, of course, Harry’s memoir .

The Duke did not see Charles or William during his visit to London for the WellChild awards at the end of September. And they also didn’t see one another during Prince Harry’s visit to the UK in May for an anniversary service commemorating 10 years of the Invictus Games. The Sussexes’ continual bombshells have led to a huge rift between William and Harry – and according to one royal expert, it’s prompted future king William to completely ‘cut ties’ with his younger brother.

Ingrid Seward touched up the importance of stability in William’s life, telling the Mirror : “William is sensitive, he likes structure and has perseverance. He does not give up easily. His relationship with brother Harry upset him more than he would care to admit. But he found it easier to cut ties rather than allow himself to be continually annoyed.”
