Royal author Simon Vigar claims Meghan Markle had 'huge Princess Diana potential' that was squandered due to egos on both sides, according to his new book The Four Wives of Windsor.
Potential wasted by ego
Vigar praises the Duchess of Sussex as 'obviously a massive asset' who was 'brilliant with the crowd' and 'would have been a major player'. He singles out her Grenfell cookbook as proof she is 'a doer', lamenting 'it is such a shame that it's gone to waste'.
Unlike Diana, who married at 20, Meghan arrived at 36 with 'different expectations' and 'expected total PR control, which was not possible in the British royal family'. Vigar says: 'She should have been, could have been, fantastic for the royal family but egos on both sides got in the way.'
By 2019 'nobody was talking to each other' and the couple 'seemed to be on a path where they felt alone'. They 'should have been transformative', yet that promise was squandered, according to Vigar.
