Prince Harry called 'nuts' for inviting 'nightmare Meghan' to event

February 06, 2024

A royal author claimed Prince Harry was called “f*****g nuts” by his friends after inviting Meghan Markle to a catch-up weekend.

Casting back to the early days of their romance, the royal wanted to show off his new love to his friends. Not long after their newfound relationship was out in the open, Prince Harry jumped at the chance for the actress to meet his long-term pals. He invited Meghan Markle to a weekend shoot at Sandringham. Shoots are common in The Firm and with other members of the royal family, with Prince William and Harry growing up with them. Tom Bower, in his book, Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors, detailed what supposedly went down during that ‘nightmare’ three days.

Prince Harry must be ‘f*****g nuts’

Bower writes: “Harry was looking forward to endless banter, jokes – and a lot of drinking. He had not anticipated Meghan’s reaction.”

He claims the duchess didn’t like his friends’ politically incorrect jokes over dinner. And she made that very clear.

The author adds: “Without hesitation, Meghan challenged every guest whose conversation contravened her values. According to Harry’s friends, again and again she reprimanded them about the slightest inappropriate nuance.

“Nobody was exempt, Harry’s world would not be her world.”

Bower notes that Harry’s friend question Meghan’s “wokery” and thought she was a “dampener on the party”.

“She lacked any sense of humour,” he added. “Driving home after Sunday lunch, the texts pinged between the cars.

“‘OMG what about HER? said one; ‘Harry must be f*****g nuts’; and ‘She’s a total nightmare’ were others.”

Harry has lost touch with ‘his friends’

It comes after claims the 38-year-old has lost touch with his friends since marrying the blushing bride Meghan.

Many of those invited on the former weekend were old pals from Eton. They came along with their wives or girlfriends, and similar upbringings.

Royal author Angela Levin wrote in her book Harry: Conversations with the Prince, that he grew “distant” over time. She says it came after he realized how Meghan was perceived amid his old friendship group.

“Harry, meanwhile, was distancing himself from his old friends including Tom ‘Skippy’ Inskip, a close pal at Eton who was also with Harry during his infamous trip to Las Vegas in 2012 when he was photographed naked during a game of strip billiards.

“Inskip and other friends were considered to be a questionable influence during Harry’s more wild bachelor days.”

She added: “Harry is also believed to have withdrawn from former pals because they were somewhat skeptical of his relationship with Meghan.”
