Meghan Markle‘s friend Bryony Gordon has hit out at the Firm in regards to their “double standards” over the treatment of the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Andrew. According to a new royal book, Andrew Lownie’s ‘Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York’, Prince Harry was involved in a fight with Andrew, which left his uncle with a “bloody nose”.
It later claimed that Andrew told his nephew that his marriage to Meghan Markle wouldn’t last more than a month – and also accused him of going “bonkers” before calling him out for not doing any due diligence into her past. Citing her frustration after seeing the claims, Bryony spoke about against what she described as “ridiculous double standards” within the Firm. She wrote: “With each sordid allegation, I have become more and more furious that so little was done to help Meghan as she struggled with life in the royal family, while so much was done to protect Prince Andrew.
“Somehow, Andrew got away with it for decades, while Meghan was branded ‘Duchess Difficult’ the moment she so much as asked the Queen if she might be able to borrow a tiara for her wedding. Why is it that people will tolerate all manner of misbehavior from the likes of powerful men like Prince Andrew, but not a woman who, according to critics, has a habit of occasionally emailing her staff at 5am.?” Bryony has been friends with Meghan and Harry for seven years.
