A royal biographer said that it "can't be a coincidence" that the former working royal has lost so many supporters and friends.

Meghan Markle has "lost friends and allies everywhere", according to a royal commentator.

Hugo Vickers, a royal biographer, took a swipe at Meghan, stating that it "can't be a coincidence" that the former working royal has lost so many supporters.


He said: "Megan does seem to have a capacity for losing friends and allies all around the place and Tina Brown, of course, is a very intelligent observer of the scene, and she's been doing it for a very long time."

Tina Brown, former editor of Vanity Fair previously accused of 'having the worst judgment in the world".

Mr Vickers continued: "For what it's worth, Meghan lost me as an ally, too.

"When she first joined the Royal Family, the line I was taking was she's the first member to have addressed the United Nations.

"There was so much that she could do, but she gradually managed to upset everybody, including Tina Brown, and that can't be a coincidence."

He claimed that Meghan "wasn't particularly committed" to becoming a member of the Royal Family.

He added: "By marrying Prince Hary, her profile went up globally, enormously, and so people wanted to hear more about her, and to some extent more from her.

"I think she probably misunderstood quite a lot of things to be quite honest about what it meant to be a member of the Royal Family, which is a life of complete service and devotion."

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back from official royal duties in January 2020 and moved to California six months later.

She said: "I am truly sorry that Meghan was subjected to abuse and bullying during her pregnancies and beyond.

"No one should have to read disgusting abuse like that at any point in their lives."
