Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have forged new lives for themselves in California since stepping back as senior members of the Royal Family. All the while, they’ve mostly kept their distance from the prince’s relatives across the pond. However, the two reportedly kept in contact with Queen Elizabeth II ahead of her death in September 2022. Rumors surrounding the couple’s interactions with the late monarch continue to circulate today. On that note, insiders are claiming that Markle added stress to the Queen’s life during her final days. And at the same time, a friend of the late ruler is sharing an honest take on the Duchess of Sussex.
In the aftermath of their decision to step back as senior members, the couple have been incredibly candid, sharing the alleged issues they had with the royals amid their courtship and marriage. They were particularly open during their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey, for which the Queen was still alive to see. Sources who spoke with RadarOnline claimed that Meghan Markle’s “Hollywood ambitions” ultimately “ripped the family apart.” Specific details aren’t shared, yet it’s alleged that the former actress was a burden on the Queen shortly before her death.
