Queen Camilla had her doubts about Meghan Markle’s motives even though she offered to help her in the early days of her royal career, says expert.

Queen Camilla was always suspicious of Meghan Markle’s motives when she first joined the Royal Family, a royal expert has claimed.

The Queen had reportedly tried to help the Duchess of Sussex in the early years of her royal life when she was going through a “difficult time” with her father, Thomas Markle.

Back in 2022, a friend of Camilla’s told Vanity Fair: “She [Camilla] threw a hand of friendship out to Harry and Meghan at various points. When Meghan was going through a difficult time with her own father, Camilla helped navigate things.”

However, a royal expert claimed that the two women never had a “budding friendship” even though the Queen “went out of her way” to help the former Suits actress.

Hilary Fordwich told Fox News back in 2023: “Before Prince Harry’s tell-all autobiography, denigrating his own family, and particularly Camilla, she and Meghan Markle didn’t exactly have a budding friendship, to say the least,” Fordwich alleged.

“Camilla went out of her way to assist Meghan when she was experiencing difficulties with her own father. Charles is said to have also offered Meghan help.”
