The Duchess of Sussex was branded ‘that minx’ by the Duchess of Cornwall, who thought she was ‘a self-seeking
troublemaker’, a royal biographer has claimed.
The Duchess of Sussex, 40, who is currently living in her $14
million mansion in California having stepped back from royal duty last year,
never saw eye-to-eye with the Duchess of Cornwall, according to Tom Bower.
The commentator, who is currently working on a biography of Meghan, has
said Camilla was long ‘suspicious’ of the Duchess’ intentions.
He told The Sun that the duo never got along,
explaining: “[Camilla] found it hard to believe that Meghan would sacrifice her
career and independence to serve silently as a team player devoted to the
monarchy.”
However, he added that the Duchess remained ‘tight-lipped’ about her
dislike for Meghan.
He added: “During those inevitably endless, tortured and inconclusive
conversations, Camilla is the sort who would refer to Meghan as ‘that minx’ —
the self-seeking trouble- maker whose antics will always end in tears.”
Meanwhile, the royal biographer suggested the Duke and Duchess’ silence over
the Queen’s declaration that Camilla would one day by Queen Consort was
‘Meghan’s way of declaring war.’

In an announcement to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee last week, Her
Majesty spoke of her ‘sincere wish’ that when the time comes, the Duchess of
Cornwall will be known as Queen Consort, not Princess Consort, as announced on
her marriage to the Prince of Wales.
William was said to be ‘supportive’ of the move and ‘respectful’ of the
logic behind his grandmother’s decision.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan have not offered any public word.
When he did break his silence four days later from California, there was no
mention of his stepmother or the proposed change to her status.

Instead, he paid a lavish tribute to Diana, praising her work on Aids
and HIV and explaining that he felt an ‘obligation’ to continue his late
mother’s efforts to remove the stigma surrounding the virus. Pointedly, he
said: ‘I could never fill her shoes.’
