The Duchess of Sussex appeared on the cover of the magazine’s September 2017 with the headline “Wild About Harry”. Biographer Tom Bower claims in his new book, serialized in The Times, that the interview took the royal family to “unknown waters.”
In Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors, Mr Bower said: “Meghan’s unprecedented brutality caught Buckingham Palace by surprise and electrified the British media.
The interview sparked sensational reactions: Meghan had used her relationship to promote herself.
“The Hollywoodization of the royal family had sealed Meghan’s fate as Harry’s betrothed.”
Bower claimed Meghan was “hysterical” when she called her PR agency Sunshine Sachs about the palace’s “rage” during the interview.
He said: “Hysterically she described Buckingham Palace’s anger at ‘Wild about Harry’.
Sunshine Sachs, Meghan said, should have had her comments about Harry removed.
“Why wasn’t the focus on her philanthropy and activism?”
During the interview, Meghan said: “We are a couple. We are in love.”
