When Meghan Markle joined the royal family, she thought it would be “sparkly and fun,” like being a Disney princess, according to royal experts.
“Meghan obviously met her prince, and I imagine she did feel that being a princess would be something sparkly and fun, but Meghan is very much somebody who likes to center stage,” British broadcaster and photographer Helena Chard tells Fox News Digital, adding, “She just wants to do things that she wants to do. And life as a working royal isn’t all sparkly.”
Former royal butler Grant Harrold, who worked for King Charles from 2004 until 2011 and recently released his book “The Royal Butler,” told the celebrity.land this week that Markle once wanted to host her friends for lunch on a day when she was supposed to carry out a royal duty while she was still a senior royal.
“She would rather have lunch with her friends, thinking that was fine and it wasn’t,” Harrold told the Post, adding that the schedule for royals is set six months in advance.

Maybe Harry’s feeling sorry. I think he could try harder.”
