Meghan Markle asked Queen Camilla for help dealing with press hostility and was met with a suggestion they move to Bermuda, according to Prince Harry’s book.

 

The Duchess of Sussex was at the center of a media storm in 2017 after being named Prince Harry’s girlfriend for the first time months before. Harry had been attempting to pressure his father King Charles III, then the Prince of Wales, into going to war with the British tabloids without success.

Meg, meanwhile, reached out to Camilla,” Harry wrote in his memoir Spare, “who tried to counsel her by saying this was just what the press always did to newcomers, that it would all pass in due time, that Camilla had been the bad guy once.

“The implication being what? Now it was Meg’s turn? As if it were apples to apples.

Camilla also suggested to Meg that I become Governor General of Bermuda, which would solve all our problems by removing us from the red-hot center of the maelstrom.

“Right, right, I thought, and one added bonus of that plan would be to get us out of the picture.”

It’s not entirely clear from Harry’s book what prompted such a pivot after the initial advice to simply ignore the press
