The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have issued a strong response to revelations from a new royal book, which contains shocking claims about the couple and is now available online.
The forthcoming book, titled Betrayal: Power, Deceit and the Fight for the Future of the Royal Family by author Tom Bower, delves into the ongoing tensions between the Sussexes and the Windsor household. Excerpts of the book have been published in The Times Magazine.
The book raises concerns about the focus on Harry and Meghan rather than sports and competitors within the Invictus Foundation. It suggests that the couple’s presence overshadowed the actual participants during events, with allegations of inflated attendance and orchestrated photo opportunities.
In response to The Times’ serialization of Bower’s book, a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess criticized the author’s fixation on the couple, citing his history of extreme statements against them.
The book also details a contentious encounter between Meghan and Prince William, where Meghan reportedly snapped at William during a meeting, indicating underlying tensions within the royal family.
Furthermore, the book explores Queen Camilla’s reported disapproval of Meghan, claiming that the Queen expressed concerns that Meghan was manipulating Harry for personal gain.
Allegations in the book also suggest that Meghan sought to leverage Prince Harry’s platform at the Invictus Games for her own publicity, prompting controversy within the organization.
The book also alleges that Harry and Meghan demanded special treatment and were described as “pushy” by event organizers, leading to conflicts within the Invictus Games leadership.
Overall, the book paints a picture of escalating tensions and power struggles within the royal family, shedding light on the personal dynamics and conflicts that have unfolded behind the scenes.
