American actor and movie director Tyler Perry played a significant role in the lives of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle when they sought refuge in California after leaving Canada in March 2020.
Perry graciously offered his mansion as a temporary home for the Sussexes while they searched for their own place to settle.
However, recent revelations from Perry’s staff shed light on Meghan’s behavior during their stay, including her bossy attitude and alleged mistreatment of the household staff.
In his memoir, Harry candidly shares his experience staying at Tyler Perry’s California mansion with Meghan and their son Archie.
He describes the house as a sanctuary but admits to having security concerns.
Harry recalls how, while everyone else slept, he would often find himself patrolling the house, checking doors and windows.
Seeking solace, he would then sit on the balcony or in the garden, rolling a joint and immersing himself in the serene surroundings.
The view of the valley, the sounds of frogs croaking, the fragrant air, and the starry sky all reminded him of their time in Botswana.
It is worth noting that the recreational use of cannabis is legal in California for individuals aged 21 and above.
However, Tyler Perry’s surprising inflammatory remarks about the Sussexes have raised eyebrows, despite his previous support for them.
Speculation circulated that Perry had kicked Harry and Meghan out of his mansion, adding fuel to the fire.
In a Netflix documentary, the couple admitted that they had never met Perry before seeking refuge at his estate.
Meghan recalls receiving a letter from Perry, reminiscent of his character in “Diary of a Mad Black Woman,” assuring her that he would always be there for her if she needed anything.
The clip of Harry and Tyler Perry together on the mansion grounds in the documentary led some to criticize Harry for appearing privileged and entitled.
Critics argued that he seemed to be acting as if he were an immigrant seeking safety while demanding the luxurious refuge that only the wealthiest 1% could afford in California.
The notion that he believed it was his birthright to stay in an $18 million home with his 13 suitcases for recuperation sparked controversy.
Rumors have also emerged regarding Meghan’s treatment of Tyler Perry’s staff.
According to an anonymous source, Meghan allegedly bullied the household staff, even going as far as throwing an elderly maid into a pool.
When Tyler Perry learned of this incident, he was reportedly furious.
These were his employees being mistreated, not Meghan’s personal staff.
It is important to emphasize that mistreating anyone is never acceptable, regardless of one’s status or entitlement.
As a result, Tyler Perry instructed Oprah Winfrey, a close friend, to immediately remove the couple from his residence.
Since Perry was not present at the time, Oprah had to relocate Harry and Meghan to one of her own guest cottages.
This incident highlights Perry’s deep concern for his staff’s well-being and his refusal to tolerate any form of cruelty.
It also raises questions about Meghan’s character and her disregard for others.
Interestingly, Oprah was aware of Meghan’s actions during her stay at Tyler Perry’s mansion.
This contradicts Meghan’s previous claims of valuing privacy.
It has been revealed that Meghan installed a plastic fence on Perry’s property, an unusual move that perplexed many.
