He said: “The Princess Royal was on the big committee and her contribution was seismic and it was always to the point, she doesn’t always suffer fools gladly and she doesn’t speak for the sake of speaking. “I do remember after a rather long-winded interjection by one of the committee members she had actually forgotten to turn her microphone off and she did manage to utter the immortal words ‘I think this person is probably the most stupid person in world sport’. “This echoed absolutely around the room and she never flinched, it was as though it had never happened and we just moved on but it is probably one of my favourite moments.”Meghan is due to give birth to her first child to husband Prince Harry this month.

Despite Meghan’s silence, the issues within the Markle family have long been played out in the media.
In February, a letter sent from the Duchess of Sussex to her father was made public, in which she begged him to leave her in peace.
Thomas said the handwritten letter was “a dagger to the heart” which left him “devastated”.
In it, Meghan accused her father of breaking her heart “into a million pieces” by allegedly lying in the press and publicly attacking her husband Prince Harry.

“I begged you to accept help — we sent someone to your home … and instead of speaking to me to accept this or any help, you stopped answering your phone and chose to only speak to tabloids,” she wrote.
“If you love me, as you tell the press you do, please stop. Please allow us to live our lives in peace.”
