Lady Colin Campbell, a prominent figure in the media, recently made a statement regarding Meghan Markle’s alleged questioning of her payment while on a royal tour.
According to Lady Campbell, Markle seemed oblivious to the fact that she had already been compensated for her services during the tour, including a clothing allowance and various other privileges.
Lady Campbell further emphasized that Markle’s clothing allowance over the two years she spent in the royal family surpassed that of every queen, duchess, and princess in Europe combined.
This was just one aspect of the perks Markle enjoyed during her time as a royal.
Additionally, Lady Campbell expressed doubt about Valentin Lowe, the author of “Extracts from the Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown,” publishing a book about the royal family without consulting the palace beforehand.
She commended Prince William for his support of disadvantaged staff members, claiming he has consistently stood up for them.
However, Lady Campbell did not hold back when discussing Markle’s behavior during the queen’s funeral procession.
While most members of the royal family appeared grief-stricken, she accused Markle of posing for the cameras.
Lady Campbell described Markle as self-absorbed and completely wrapped up in herself, contrasting her behavior with that of Sophie Wessex, whose face remained stoic.
Lowe’s book also sheds light on Markle’s apparent lack of understanding regarding royal walkabouts.
Although she enjoyed the attention, Markle failed to grasp the purpose of these public engagements, where she would interact with numerous strangers.
According to Lowe, Markle was overheard expressing disbelief at not being paid for such appearances.
The author further claimed that Prince William had offered support to a young female royal aide who had allegedly faced mistreatment from Markle.
Lady Campbell praised Prince William’s actions, stating that he had consistently backed up disadvantaged and bullied staff members.
According to reports, Markle’s aides, who referred to themselves as the “Sussex Survivors Club” after her and Prince Harry’s departure from their royal roles, described Markle as a narcissistic sociopath.
They alleged that she and Prince Harry treated their staff poorly, viewing them as adversaries.
Initially, the staff had believed in Markle and were dedicated to helping the couple succeed.
However, they eventually realized that Markle’s primary concern was her own financial gain.
Furthermore, the book suggests that Markle aimed to demonstrate how the royal institution had failed her.
The staff members even suspected a cynical motive behind her decision to complain to HR bosses, who listened sympathetically but offered no assistance.
It should be noted that HR is primarily responsible for dealing with employee issues, not those of the royal family.
This raised questions about Markle’s intentions, leading some to believe she was laying a trail of evidence.
Lady Colin Campbell’s remarks and Lowe’s book have provided further insight into the dynamics within the royal family during Markle’s time as a member.
These revelations have sparked discussions about the treatment of staff and Markle’s motivations, leaving many intrigued by the complexities behind the scenes.
