Lady Glenconner, a childhood friend of the late Queen Elizabeth II, has blasted Meghan Markle for believing that royal life would be like living the life of a film star.
Speaking on the Rosebud with Gyles Brandreth podcast, Lady Glenconner said: “I think the thing about Meghan was, she had no idea what was really expected of her really.”
In the short span of just four years, Meghan met Prince Harry, the pair got married and then made the decision to step down from royal duties.
The couple now live in the US with their two children – Prince Archie, four, and Princess Lilibet, two – with Meghan having previously struggled to adjust to her newfound life as a royal.
Speaking on the podcast, Lady Glenconner added: “I think [Meghan] just thought it was sort of like being another actress, you know. Riding around in a golden coach and everything like that.”
