First he was all team Diana, telling The Mail that the Royal family has “Meghan treating her father in a way that Prince Harry’s mother, Princess Diana, would have loathed. That’s not what Diana stood for.” But then he retracted his quasi-praise, explaining, “Princess Diana is credited with changing the Royal Family, but she wasn’t perfect. She was still very much one of them.”
“I think Meghan’s the one who’ll bring them into the 21st Century, if they’ll let her,” he continued. Father knows best, right?
Apparently unafraid that his comments about Diana will further distance him from his son-in-law, Markle followed up the Di-bashing segment by sharing, “I don’t care if Harry never speaks to me again, I’ll survive.” Good to know.
The cherry on top? A sentimental shout-out to centuries of British tradition: “‘Who cares these days about a dusty old crown?” Sweet.
