Tina Brown claims Meghan Markle ‘has worst judgment in the world’

The King and Queen are leaving for Samoa today.

The Duchess of Sussex has been accused of having “the worst judgment of anyone in the entire world”.

Journalist and royal biographer Tina Brown described Meghan and Prince Harry’s decision to quit royal duties in January 2020 as a “disaster.”

Now the former editor of Vanity Fair has said: “The trouble with Meghan is that she has the worst judgment of anyone in the entire world. She’s flawless about getting it all wrong. All of her ideas are total crap, unfortunately.”

And Ms Brown, who in 2007 wrote The Diana Chronicles on Princess Diana’s life, labelled Prince Harry “the lamb to the slaughter in this situation”.

She added: “And he just sort of blindly followed her like a child, really.”

Ms Brown, 70, speaking on the Ankler podcast, was commenting on remarks made in her recently launched newsletter, which she describes as a platform to “unload my observations, rants and news obsessions”.

Ms Brown previously claimed the couple made “bad choices” and could have left the Royal Family on better terms if they were not “hot-headed”.

She called Harry a “very impetuous man” and claimed that Palace advisers “always thought he would leave”.

Meghan, 43, and Harry, 40, have bought a holiday home in Portugal, not far from one owned by Harry’s cousin Princess Eugenie.

The purchase of the home may allow the Sussexes to acquire a so-called Golden Visa, under which they would have visa-free access to the European Union’s Schengen area.

This could have been a major attraction to Meghan, who is a US citizen.

When the couple got engaged in November 2017, Kensington Palace said Meghan would apply for British citizenship in due course, with a spokesman confirming that “she will go through the process (which) takes a number of years”.

However, she eventually abandoned her bid to become a British citizen after she and her husband left the country in March 2020, less than two years after their wedding.
