Meghan Markle has proven to be a very divisive figure. On one hand, she is a popular actress who turned into an actual British duchess. On the other hand, her rise to fame and royalty has left a lot of destruction and busted relationships in her wake.
You may not have heard about that destruction because the royal family likes to keep things “hush hush.” Fortunately, we’ve got the full lowdown on the shady side of Meghan Markle.
Meghan and Harry are actually cousins
If you read about someone marrying their cousin, you’re likelier to think about Alabama than England. Nonetheless, it looks like Meghan is actually related to her husband Prince Harry!
When British tabloid The Daily Mail looked into the genealogy of Meghan and Harry, they made a surprising discovery. It seems as if the two are cousins going all the way back to the 15th century!
Supporters of Markle may downplay this, but this is one of those cases where the old jokes about royalty happen to be true. But it’s not the biggest reason to worry about Meghan and Harry’s marriage.
Meghan and the Queen allegedly fought over a tiara
When it comes to royalty, “the buck stops here” when it comes to the Queen. So, when American Meghan Markle married into the British royal family, everyone had a simple question: how well will she get along with the Queen?
According to an inside scoop reported on The Sun, the two allegedly clashed over her wedding details. Specifically, Markle had her heart set on an emerald tiara for the ceremony. The Queen, however, was concerned that they could not verify exactly where the emerald tiara originated from.
Eventually, the Queen had to lay down the law to Prince Harry: “Meghan cannot have whatever she wants. She gets what tiara she’s given by me,” she allegedly said. In that way, the Queen had to reiterate something most Americans hear at a very young age: you get what you get and you don’t pitch a fit!
