‘She knew in advance she’d embark on commercial ventures, which royalty strictly forbids.’

Claiming that Prince Philip nicknamed Meghan ‘Tungsten’, due to her ‘rock-solid self belief’, it continues: ‘She now has what she wanted — a millionaire’s life in Hollywood. She’s caused Harry to lose most of his friends. 

‘He’s weaker than she. He’s run ragged. Despite the sex, she will make his life miserable. He has no strength of character to leave her.’

Campbell said she believes the Sussexes moving to the US is part of the plan to make the shift into the political sphere.
