Prince William 'saw right through' Meghan Markle's 'plan' before she married Harry
Prince William was reportedly skeptical of Meghan Markle and 'saw right through' her plan when she married Prince Harry, a royal expert has claimed.
Prince William allegedly saw "right through" Meghan Markle's 'plan' when she married Prince Harry, according to a Royal expert.
Sally Bedell Smith, who had conversations with the former monarch's cousin Lady Elizabeth Anson before her passing, recently shared on her Substack that Lady Elizabeth had expressed the late Queen's worries about the 2018 wedding and Meghan's intentions.
These concerns reportedly echo those of William, 43, as per Royal expert Phil Dampier. Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive Show, Dampier suggested that the future King was skeptical about Meghan from the get-go.

He stated: "I think, unfortunately, that confirms what I've been saying or thought for the last few years that, sadly, Meghan never really had any intention of staying in the Royal Family.
"She saw [it] as a stepping stone getting married to Harry... to new fame and fortune. And I think that's what initially Prince William was concerned about. And that's why they fell out. And now we are where we are."
“But to have this confirmed by somebody so close to the queen is really dynamite,” he added.
A Royal biographer also recently revealed claims that, behind the scenes, Harry had caused the late Queen considerable concern with some of his wedding plans, even suggesting he nearly jeopardized his relationship with his late grandmother.
Sally published the “explosive” revelations made to her by one of Her Majesty’s closest confidantes Lady Elizabeth Anson, in several conversations in 2018 and 2019.
The Queen was "very worried" about her grandson and there were doubts about Meghan's motives. Just days before the wedding, she had told Sally: “We hope but don’t quite think [Meghan] is in love.
“We think she engineered it all.”

She added: “It’s worrying that so many people are questioning whether Meghan is right for Harry.
“The problem, bless his heart, is that Harry is neither bright nor strong, and she is both."
Royal broadcaster Esther Krakue spoke about Dampier’s comments and added that Prince Harry is “whipped” by his wife, and that King Charles sees it.
Krakue said, "We know that King Charles said something about him being whipped. We keep hearing things consistently coming out from courtiers and people that are close to the royal family.”
