Queen Camilla had her doubts about Meghan Markle's motives even though she offered to help her in the early days of her royal career, says expert.
Queen Consort Camilla tipped to help Harry and Meghan
Queen Camilla was always suspicious of Meghan Markle's motives when she first joined the Royal Family, a royal expert has claimed.
The Queen had reportedly tried to help the Duchess of Sussex in the early years of her royal life when she was going through a "difficult time" with her father, Thomas Markle.
Back in 2022, a friend of Camilla's told Vanity Fair: "She [Camilla] threw a hand of friendship out to Harry and Meghan at various points. When Meghan was going through a difficult time with her own father, Camilla helped navigate things."
However, a royal expert claimed that the two women never had a "budding friendship" even though the Queen "went out of her way" to help the former Suits actress.
Hilary Fordwich told Fox News back in 2023: "Before Prince Harry’s tell-all autobiography, denigrating his own family, and particularly Camilla, she and Meghan Markle didn’t exactly have a budding friendship, to say the least," Fordwich alleged.

"Camilla went out of her way to assist Meghan when she was experiencing difficulties with her own father. Charles is said to have also offered Meghan help."
But Ms Forwich said that after the infamous Oprah Winfrey interview in 2021, Camilla labelled the duchess a "minx" and "ungrateful".
She explained: "Fast-forward, post Oprah interview, Netflix documentary, ‘Spare’ and numerous interviews, Meghan has been labelled ‘that minx’ and ‘ungrateful’ by Camilla who was suspicious from the get-go of Meghan’s motives.
"Many say they actually never enjoyed a close relationship. The suspicion is Camilla had been finding it tough to believe Meghan would sacrifice her ‘career and independence’ to serve silently behind her man as a team player devoted to the monarchy."

It comes as the duchess was said to be "ready to sit down" with the Royal Family for reconciliation talks after four years of barely any contact.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been estranged from the Firm ever since their sensational departure in 2020.
But now a royal commentator claimed that the Duchess is ready to reunite with her estranged in-laws, despite being "genuinely hurt".
Angela Levin told GB News: "She's still genuinely hurt by how she was treated by the Royal Family - this is four years on.
"And she wants to now at last sit down and talk through things."
