Meghan Markle appeared to lead a ‘normal life’ during her time as a royal claims Princess Diana’s biographer
Princess Diana’s biographer Andrew Morton has recommended Meghan Markle driven fairly a “normal life” as a working regal in Kensington Palace.
In a tell-all interview, the Duchess of Sussex asserted to Oprah Winfrey that her passport, driver’s license, and keys were taken away when she became a member of the British royal family. The 39-year-old also claimed she needed to ask permission just to do everyday things.
But, Morton, who recently showed up on the “Royally Obsessed” podcast, questioned those statements.
The 68-year-old, who authored “Diana: Her True Story – In Her Own Words” in 1992, was asked if Markle’s experience was like that of the late Princess of Wales.
“It was and it wasn’t,” the writer answered. “When I was watching the interview, I was ticking off ‘yes, sense of isolation,’ ‘yes, sense of desperation’… exactly what Diana was saying to me.”
“But then again, well, friends of mine have seen Meghan walking from Whole Foods supermarket on Kensington High Street with bags of food back to Kensington Palace,” Morton claimed.
“It didn’t seem too much like a prison,” he alleged to the outlet. “Other friends have seen her out and about with friends at restaurants, so she seems, to me, to have led a normal life.”
Morton additionally called attention to that back in February 2019, the former American actress flew out to New York City on a private jet to celebrate her baby shower ahead of her son Archie’s birth. He alleged Markle made overseas trips “without wearing handcuffs.”
In early 2020, the couple declared they were quitting regal duties and moving to North America, referring to what they said were the terrible interruptions and racist attitudes of the British media.
