Meghan Markle 'hated being a second-rate princess' before making her royal exit, palace staffer claims

foxnews.com:

Meghan Markle allegedly "hated being a second-rate princess" before she made her royal exit with Prince Harry. The claim was made by a Kensington Palace staffer "who remembered Meghan well" in a new book written by Tom Quinn titled "Gilded Youth: An Intimate History of Growing Up in the Royal Family." It features exclusive testimony from palace staff with historical sources, as well as royal insiders.

It aims to examine the traditional upbringing of the British royal family and how it has impacted them over the years. A Buckingham Palace spokesperson did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment concerning Quinn’s book.

However, a spokesperson previously told Fox News Digital that the palace does not generally comment "on such books." Quinn told Fox News Digital that the former American actress identified with Princess Diana, a member of the royal family who was treated unfairly by the press and then hounded by paparazzi until her tragic death in 1997 at age 36. "It’s very easy to see why Meghan would identify with Diana because, in a sense, Diana was also a rebel within the royal family," Quinn explained. "Their views of the royal family coincide.They’re very similar.

Diana hated all that stuffiness. She didn’t like the pheasant shooting that she was dragged along to. And it’s interesting because Diana grew up in that world.
