Tiara trouble. According to Prince Harry, Queen Elizabeth II‘s former senior dresser, Angela Kelly, became “obstructive” when tasked with lending Meghan Markle an accessory for her wedding day, Us Weekly can exclusively reveal.The Duke of Sussex, 38, explained in his Spare memoir that Meghan, 41, was slated to wear a tiara from the late monarch’s personal collection for the May 2018 nuptials.

However, when the big day arrived, Kelly, 65, was unreachable and therefore couldn’t hand over the accessory.“Meg’s hairdresser had come in from France for the rehearsal and the tiara still wasn’t there,” Harry explained, alleging that he attempted to call Her Majesty’s “dresser and confidant” several times to no avail.

The Archewell cofounder claimed that the dressmaker finally “appeared out of thin air” and handed him a release form to sign along with the diadem.“I thanked her, though I added that it would’ve made our lives so much easier to have had it sooner.

Her eyes were fire,” the prince alleged, adding that he could “read in her face” a “clear warning.”The tiara debacle was discussed in the August 2020 book Finding Freedom: Harry and Meghan and the Making of a Modern Royal Family.
