Lady Colin Campbell is thought to have never even met Meghan Markle despite telling the “real story” of Prince Harry’s wife in her new book.
Socialite Lady C has released biography Meghan and Harry: The Real Story, which is described as a “balanced account of game changes, conflicts and ambitions”.
The book is said to examine the “fall from popular grace of the previously adulated brother of the heir to the British throne as a consequence of his marriage to a beautiful and dynamic Hollywood starlet of colour”.
Lady C, who has previously released a best-selling book on Harry and William’s late mother Princess Diana, is described as “having a foot in both the American and British camps”.
She’s lauded as an expert on royal history and psychology and is said to be supplying a “unique breadth of insight” while going “behind the scenes” in her new book.
But some have questioned if she can tell the “real story” of a woman she’s never even met.
One person tweeted: “She’s never even met Meghan Markle, but she’s never missed a paycheck she could get her grubby little fingers on by dragging the royals through the dirt in one of her tacky, fantasy books she claims are ‘biographies’.”
Another posted: “Lady C has never met Harry and Meghan and has a very odd disliking to Meghan Markle but has decided to write a book about them”
Not everyone feels the same way though.
Many think Lady C has hit the nail on the head with her comments about the couple, who have stepped down from their roles as senior royals.
She recently said that Meghan and Harry would not be welcomed back to the UK after heading off to America for a new life together in LA.
“The perceptive Lady C has got this right,” one fan exclaimed.
While another tweeted: “Doesn’t matter how many sob stories #MeghanMarkle puts out. The only book I am buying is Lady C’s and it comes out on Tuesday. Can’t wait.”
Lady C has made a number of scathing comments about Meghan, including branding her “fame-hungry” and insisting she is trying to outshine Diana.
She also famously clashed with Phillip Schofield during an interview on This Morning.
While being quizzed about her unauthorised biographies, Lady C branded Phil “ignorant” and said that his co-host Holly Willoughby lacked integrity.
When they questioned if Lady C actually knew any of the royals, she told them they had “no respect for the truth”.
When asked by Holly if it’s harder to write a biography with no input from the people it’s about Lady C said: “If you know anything about writing biographies, or what is regarded as a good biography, you have minimum input from the person you are writing about.
“If you’re writing an impartial proper biography, you speak to everyone around them who really knows them, you do not need, unless you’re a minister of propaganda, to have input from the person.”
And Phillip said that the royals probably didn’t want to speak to Lady C after her book about Princess Diana.
She fumed: “Well that just shows how ignorant you are, if I may point out, because the fact of the matter is that my Diana biography was the most believable of all the biographies, and if anybody knows anything about the way the story evolved, had it not been for my biography, Diana would have thrown Charles to the wolves.”
