Ms Fordwich said: “It is unforgivable that Harry was the cause of much heartbreak for Queen Elizabeth II.”
“All those around her knew of her sorrow and deep concern. This is the root of the massive rift between Harry and Meghan and the rest of the Royal Family.
“The pain they caused in the queen’s waning years can’t ever be repaired… The family nor the nation will never forget it.”
Katie Nicholl, who is Vanity Fair’s royal correspondent and author, recently wrote about her conversations with Lady Elizabeth Anson, a first cousin and close confidante of the late Queen.
Ms Nicholl wrote of Lady Anson’s claims: “Lady Elizabeth told me that the queen felt her once-close relationship with her grandson would never be the same again.
“’She couldn’t understand how Harry, who had loved his military career and been devoted to duty, could change the way he did. It’s so sad that at her age, having managed the most amazing reign, it has been sullied. He has hurt her beyond belief.’”
Lady Elizabeth Anson died back in 2020, aged 79.
