A number of claims were made in the book, reports the Mirror. They include how Meghan didn't get on with Harry's friends once they were an item.
The late Queen 's Lady-in-Waiting, Lady Susan Hussey, made one of the most interesting remarks, as she discussed the couple's relationship prior to their wedding in 2018.
Lady Susan is said to have made the comment at a lunch with a group of theatre executives, months before the pair tied the knot. She was reportedly one of the Queen's dearest friends, and a close confidant.
Lady Susan said: "While discussing the possibility that Meghan might become linked with the National Theatre after the wedding, Hussey became unexpectedly serious about the couple’s future. 'That will all end in tears,' she is alleged to have warned. 'Mark my words.'"
She was made one of Prince William's godmothers after he was born in 1982, an honour given to her by King Charles and the late Princess Diana, who were then the Prince and Princess of Wales, and also fond of Lady Susan, respecting her relationship with they Queen.
