Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have vehemently dismissed allegations made against them in a new royal biography, describing the claims as “deranged conspiracy.”
The couple, who have been residing in California since stepping back from their royal duties in 2020, expressed their disapproval through a spokesperson. They condemned Tom Bower’s upcoming book, “Betrayal: Power, Deceit And The Fight For The Future Of The Royal Family,” for crossing the boundary from critique to obsession.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have slammed claims made about them in a new royal book
As serialized excerpts of the book appear in The Times, one controversial claim suggests that Queen Camilla allegedly told friends that Meghan had “brainwashed Harry.”
Another contentious allegation, reportedly from a former executive of the Invictus Games, accuses Meghan of being a distraction from the event’s focus on injured veterans, labeling her as “bling, not rehabilitation.”
It also alleges that a former Invictus Games executive claimed that Meghan was a distraction from injured veterans and described her as “bling, not rehabilitation”.
In a statement, the spokesperson said: “This is someone who has publicly stated, ‘the monarchy in fact depends on actually obliterating the Sussexes from our state of life’, language that speaks for itself.
“He has made a career out of constructing ever more elaborate theories about people he does not know and has never met.
“Those interested in facts will look elsewhere; those seeking deranged conspiracy and melodrama know exactly where to find him.”
Meanwhile, a spokesman for the Invictus Games Foundation said it was “disappointing” to see attention given “to commentary that appears driven by a long-established agenda rather than a genuine understanding of the Invictus Games and the community it supports”.
They added: “The foundation exists to support the recovery and rehabilitation of wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans from around the world.
“Attempts to question the legitimacy of competitors or diminish the experience of those living with both physical injuries and invisible wounds, such as PTSD, are deeply disrespectful to the men and women the games were created for.
“The focus should remain where it belongs – on the courage, recovery and camaraderie of those who have served.”
Buckingham Palace has not commented on the book – which also analyses the end of the Sussexes’ contract with Spotify, the renaming of their Archewell Foundation and the possibility of them publicly reconciling with King Charles when the Invictus Games come to Birmingham in 2027.
