“At the drinks before the dinner, a small group were talking to the monarch and she explained that Harry meeting Meghan had become a complete catastrophe and described her as evil.

“The Queen, whose health was known to be failing and who had only months to live, appeared to express regret over how the situation had unfolded.”

Despite the Queen’s alleged remarks, Meghan has always spoken fondly of the late monarch.

In the past, she described their relationship as “lovely and easy”.

“I’ve loved being in her company. She’s always been warm, welcoming, and inviting.”

 

But following their departure from royal duties, Harry and Meghan made numerous explosive claims about other members of the Royal Family.

Among these was the notorious allegation that Prince William physically confronted Prince Harry during a dispute concerning Meghan.
