Prince Harry’s tell-all memoir ‘Spare’ has already become the fastest-selling nonfiction book ever published. Prince Harry has claimed that Queen Elizabeth II had a blunt question for his wife Meghan Markle in their first meeting. In his memoir, Prince Harry claimed that his late grandmother asked Meghan about Donald Trump, and she lied and played coy to hide her hatred of him so she would not upset the Queen.
Meghan Markle talked about Donald Trump
As per a report in Mirror, when Meghan was told that she was to meet the Queen, she was quite excited and expected it to be just like any other family introduction. Meghan was reportedly shocked at the formalities that would follow inside the royal family. Meghan then proceeded to do an impressive curtsy to the Queen, who after a formal introduction hit for a blunt question when she asked her what she thought of Donald Trump.
In his book Spare, Harry said:
“Granny even asked Meg what she thought of Donald Trump. This was just before the November 2016 election, so everyone in the world seemed to be thinking and talking about the Republican candidate.”
Prince Harry also added that even though Meghan Markle was passionate about politics, she chose not to be too frank and speak about it in the first introduction since it would be risky. Harry claims that Meghan changed the topic to Canada, saying that she lived in the Commonwealth country for seven years. The Queen reportedly “looked pleased” at this exchange.
Meghan had made her views on Donald Trump clear in a chat show in America, when she appeared on The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore, where she had said that if Trump became President, she would leave the US.
