Royal Expert Says Princess Diana and Meghan Markle Would Not Have Gotten Along

Yet, Ingrid Seward, a royal expert, has recently said Harry’s late mother, Princess Diana, would not have gotten along with his wife, per an interview with The Sun.

Speaking on the early days of his relationship with Markle, Harry said, “I fell in love with Meghan so incredibly quickly — it was a confirmation to me that all the stars were aligned,” per People.

Speaking with The Sun’s royal editor, Ingrid Seward said, “I think it would be very difficult for any mother-in-law to like Meghan because Meghan is a powerful woman, and she likes her own way.”

“Mothers and sons, basically no one is ever good enough for their little boy.” She continued, “It’s the same with mothers and daughters, too.”

Sarah Ferguson, the former wife of the disgraced Prince Andrew, says Princess Diana would have been “so proud” of who William and Harry both chose as their wives.

“If [Diana] were sitting with me right now, I know she would say, ‘I am so proud of both of my boys and the wonderful wives they have chosen,” said Ferguson.

“Diana adored my girls. She adored the boys. This would be her haven. Her heaven,” she added. 

According to Seward, Bonas is a “beautiful, lovely girl,” but “she had no desire whatsoever to live that royal life.”

“I remember her telling me that what she found really hard — and I think Diana used to find this really hard, but it wasn’t so bad in her day — she’d be walking down the street, and people with phone cameras would be taking pictures and say, ‘Oh, look, she’s got dirty hair,'” said the royal expert. 

“I think he would have loved it, and I think he was very keen on her, but I don’t I don’t think she had any intention of ever marrying into that family,” she continued. 

The royal brothers’ troubles began in the wake of Harry’s newfound love. One source said William told his brother they knew nothing “about her background, her intentions, what she was really like” (via The Sun).

One touching quote uttered by the princess, “I live for my sons. I would be lost without them,” per People, is evidence enough to suggest that Diana would have at least tried to get along with Markle for the sake of her son.
