Meghan Markle and Prince Harry thought they had ‘Diana’s magic’, book claims

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are thought to have believed they had “Diana’s magic”, according to claims from an explosive new book. Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war with the Windsors by Tom Bower claims the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had convinced themselves that they could follow in his mother’s footsteps as the public’s favourite royals as a result of their Australian tour.

Meghan and Harry embarked on a 16-day tour of Australia, which also took in New Zealand, Tonga and Fiji, to huge fanfare. The trip was deemed a huge success with the pair visiting Bondi Beach, the Sydney Opera House and appearing at the 2018 Invictus Games, which were taking place in the city.

Bower suggests Harry and Meghan felt they had the qualities to lead the monarchy into a new age after the tour. The trip kicked off with big news after Bower says Meghan had told some members of the royal family that she was pregnant during Princess Eugenie’s wedding reception in October 2018, according to an extract from the book reported by The Sun.
