Breaking News: Queen Camilla blast and criticised Meghan Markle… full story below πππ
Queen Camilla has sent a personal letter to an author who previously described Meghan Markle as “unmaternal.”
The bestselling American author, who apologised publicly for her 2020 comments calling the Duchess of Sussex “phoney” and “unmaternal,” received praise from the Queen, reported GB News.
Emily Giffin, known for her 2005 New York Times bestseller Something Borrowed, shared on social media that she received a personal note from Camilla in July.
In the letter, which Giffin posted to her Instagram account on August 28, Camilla expressed gratitude for receiving a copy of Giffinβs new novel, noting that she looked forward to reading it “in the peace and quiet of Scotland.”
Camilla also mentioned that it was a “great pleasure to meet you” during her second annual Queen’s Reading Room literary festival at Hampton Court Palace earlier in the summer and hoped “our paths will cross again in the near future.”
It remains unclear if Camilla was aware of Giffinβs past comments about Meghan when she wrote the letter.
In 2020, Giffin faced backlash after posting critical remarks on Instagram about Meghan, who had shared a video of herself reading to her son, Prince Archie, for his first birthday.
Giffinβs posts labeled Meghan as “unmaternal” and “such a phoney,” and criticized the video as being “the [Meghan] show,” questioning why Meghan did not let Harry read on camera.
These remarks led to swift backlash from royal fans. Giffin later issued an apology on Instagram, posting a photo of herself with cardboard cutouts of Harry and Meghan.
In the caption, she said she regularly posts in an “unfiltered way,” and that she is “very interested in the British monarchy.”
