Prince Andrew's WARNING About Meghan Markle

Well, clearly, there is no love lost between King Charles and his brother, Andrew.And I think you make that clear as well, that those two, they're not particularly close.And Charles is not protecting Andrew, at least at this point.And you write in the book that Andrew really didn't get along with many people.He didn't.He loved his mother, or at least she loved him.

0:21

But he didn't get along with Harry.He doesn't get along with William.And of all the things that he's said and done, as documented by this book, I have to give him the warning that he gave Harry when he got together with Meghan.He was not in favor of it, and he saw disaster written all over it.

0:40

Yes, I mean, you know, I think they all saw this when I was writing my book on the Mountbatten's in 2016.All the gossip in the Royal Household was about how unsuitable Meghan was, and it would all end in tears.And clearly, Andrew was one of the people who was saying that.I mean, so was William.Everyone could see this was a disaster waiting to happen.But I think Andrew was a little bit more vocal about it than some of the others.

1:06

And that upset Harry.There were fisticuffs.I mean, both of them have resorted to their fists on numerous occasions.There's a story which actually has come out in Robert Hartman's book about the Queen, which actually I allude to in mine, of a fight with the head of the household, Tony Johnson -Burt.But yes, there were fights with Harry.There were fights with Andrew.

with others.And William was crossed with Andrew because Basically, Andrew didn't think that Kate was a suitable bride.She wasn't posh enough.And even as a child, William found him a bit of a creep.So there's a huge personal animus there, as well as William's concern about the reputational damage to the family, when he's the guy who's got to pick up the pieces.In some ways, the likelihood is that Charles is just going to pass the baton on to William and let him sort it out.

problem in the way the Queen has done it with Charles.

2:04

Yeah, you write that not a great relationship with William.He resents that Andrew was rude about Kate and William has long worked behind the scenes to evict his uncle, Andrew, from Royal Lodge.William refers to Andy as a tosser, perhaps not as bad as the vile names his brother Harry uses.Harry has refers to Andy as a poof -da, an arsehole, and a twit.And then you say that, yeah, he told Harry that this marriage is not going to last more than a month.When he got together with Meghan, he accused him of going bonkers and not doing any due diligence on her past.

2:37

And Harry later told William, you write, that he was planning to kill his uncle Andrew.He hated him that much.Prince Harry denies that these events occurred.So what do you know about the status, if anything, since you're a royal biographer?of the Harry and Meghan pair out in Montecito.And is there any hope of them going back to be your problem instead of ours?

3:00

Well, I mean, I can't really comment because I've focused as a historian on the story of Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.So I can only go from what I've kind of read.But I think the feeling generally in Britain is the marriage isn't going to last.Harry will, I'm afraid, still remain with you because his children are there.And actually, that is exactly what Wallace Simpson did with Edward the She kind of got him away from his friends and his relations into another country and she could control him then.They didn't have children at least, but he was kind of stuck with her.

3:32

And I think that seems to be the feeling here with Harry.He wants to build some bridges.I think his father is keen to reunite with him to see his grandchildren.William clearly is against it.The King is caught between the two brothers and whatever he does, he's going to upset one of them.And it's a bit of a mess.

3:53

What happened with theof Windsor is he did every so often come back and see his family, as long as his wife didn't come with him, and that we're going to see more of that.We have a sign that Harry may be able to come back and have security paid for by the taxpayer here.which will make him feel safer.But it's interesting that when there have been occasions where the King could have met Harry, I mean, not least in his recent visit to the States, that that didn't happen.And I think there's always a suspicion that Harry will leak any encounter they have and the story will be sold to the newspapers.

4:28

So it is a bit of a mess.No one wants a dysfunctional family like that, but I'm afraid that is the story of the royal family.They can't seem to get on with each other.

4:39

Well, the similarities you point out between Meghan Markle and yes, Wallace Simpson, but also Sarah Ferguson are pretty stark.And the story, this actually just broke from Rob Shooter, who we love.He goes on the nerve with Maureen all the time.And this is his exclusive that Fergie was in talks with two NBC executives to do a daytime talk show in America.They flew over there to meet with her and talk to her about it in London.The next thing they knew, She had left the NBC executives alone with her daughters Beatrice and Eugenie and vanished for nearly two days.

5:15

And they found themselves acting like royal babysitters, eventually peaced out of the UK and said, yeah, this is not for us.So lots of similarities there when it comes to work ethic and being an alleged grifter.Thanks for watching this clip.If you're new here, subscribe.We got a whole lot more goodness where that came from.Would love to hear your feedback.

No BS, no agenda.No fear.Think about this.In 2006, $20 ,000 equaled roughly 33 ounces of gold at spot price.At today's prices, those 33 ounces would be worth about $165 ,000.That's why many smart Americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals.
