Prince Harry<\/a> “was so disappointed” when he introduced Meghan Markle<\/a> to Princess Diana’s<\/a> two sisters, it has emerged.<\/p>\n The Duke of Sussex<\/a> had hoped Lady Sarah McCorquodale and Lady Jane Fellowes would similarities to his mother, who died when Harry was just 12. However, although Harry believed Diana would have been “over the moon” about his relationship with Meghan, he was upset with her sisters’ reaction.<\/p>\n They reportedly did not see the same character traits in the two women and Harry, 40, suffered a further blow as Lady McCorquodale and Lady Fellowes “thought Meghan would not fit in with the Royal Family<\/a>.” Regardless, Harry married his partner soon after in 2018<\/a> and has gone onto have two children with the former actress.<\/p>\n The insights have come about in the book Revenge: Meghan, Harry, and the War Between the Windsors, written by royal biographer Tom Bower. He penned: “Harry assumed that Diana’s family and friends would see a similarity between Diana and his fianc\u00e9e. Both, he said, shared the same problems. He was so disappointed.”<\/p>\n READ MORE: King Charles cancer update as palace aides set record straight on Donald Trump warning<\/a> The biographer continued: “No one agreed that his vulnerable mother had anything in common with his girlfriend. More discomforting for him, they thought Meghan would not fit in with the Royal Family.”<\/p>\n But the Duke of Sussex remained defiant and, in 2022, he discussed Meghan’s similarities to Diana in his Netflix<\/a> docuseries. According to the Express<\/a>, the prince said: “So much of what Meghan is and how she is, is so similar to my mum. She has the same compassion, the same empathy, the same confidence. She has this warmth about her.”<\/p>\n Meghan has a had a tough week, making the headlines for the wrong reasons as she lost her the chance to appear on the front cover of fashion bible Vogue<\/a>. It is alleged the 43-year-old mum compiled a long list of outrageous demands, which caused the magazine to pull the plug.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Princess Diana’s family left stunned after fire rages at estate where she’s buried<\/a><\/p>\n Elsewhere, journalist and commentator Esther Krakue hit out at the mum of two, harshly suggesting that Meghan<\/a> should lean into her status as a \u201chot\u201d woman who married a prince, rather than trying to frame herself as a thought leader with a \u201cparticularly niche view of the world<\/a>.”<\/p>\n Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, Krakue commented on Meghan\u2019s recent appearance on The Jamie Kern Lima Show podcast, in which the Duchess of Sussex admitted she wouldn\u2019t know what to put on a resume. Krakue said bluntly: “She\u2019s also never had to write a resume, let\u2019s be honest.”<\/p>\n Krakue went on to critique Meghan\u2019s attempts to champion complex social issues. She said: “The lens through which she views the world is very peculiar.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, was “discomforted” with Princess Diana’s two sisters after they had first met…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":143412,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7721,7719,7718,7720,1281,447,1412,7710,519,7711],"class_list":{"0":"post-143411","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-duchess-of-sussex","10":"tag-duke-of-sussex","11":"tag-harry","12":"tag-meghan","13":"tag-meghan-markle","14":"tag-prince-harry","15":"tag-princess-diana","16":"tag-royal-families","17":"tag-royal-family","18":"tag-uk-royal-family"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114595379863653931","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143411","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143411"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143411\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/143412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143411"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=143411"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=143411"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Diana](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/1_Diana-Angola.jpg\")
