A new book by Tom Bower has reportedly shaken things up. Insiders say it has hit a “raw nerve” with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The book by the former journalist notes that Queen Camilla once told a friend that Markle had “brainwashed” Harry. The author also claims that Markle was seen as a “threat” instead of a friend by Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The many claims have allegedly infuriated the Sussexes, as they think the author has crossed a boundary. In fact, a spokesperson for the Sussexes issued a “blistering” response, dismissing Bower’s new book as a “deranged conspiracy.”

On the other hand, as per NBC News reports, Harry and Markle issued a statement saying the author has “long crossed the line from criticism into fixation.”
The statement further read, “This is someone who has publicly stated, ‘the monarchy in fact depends on actually obliterating the Sussexes from our state of life,’ language that speaks for itself.”
In the statement, the royal couple continued that the British author has constructed a story about people he doesn’t know or has never met. The statement further continued that those who are more “interested in facts will look elsewhere.” However, those who want some “deranged conspiracy and melodrama” would know “where to find him.”
