Prince Harry’s friend has questioned Vanity Fair’s “divorce” story. The brutal Harry and Meghan divorce allegations in this week’s bombshell Vanity Fair article have made “a bad time worse” for the couple, an old friend of Harry’s who still lives in the U.K. has told The Daily Beast.
The storied publication saw an astonishing claim that a member of Meghan’s team spoke to publishers regarding her writing a book about divorce if she were to split from Harry.
The friend remains in contact with both William and Harry, despite the brothers’ bitter feud, told the Daily Beast:
“The Vanity Fair divorce story seemed very unfair. There was a book but there wasn’t a book, she was planning for life after divorce, but they are totally in love. What? There was not a shred of evidence.”
The article, by Anna Peele, alleged that “a rumor” has circulated in “the book world” that “Meghan’s team had a conversation with a publishing house to gauge interest” in a book about “a post-Harry divorce.”
Peele stated that the unidentified person allegedly acting for Meghan made it clear that the couple were not getting divorced. However, was seeking to know, if such a divorce did happen, “would this publisher theoretically be interested in a book that took place in its aftermath?”
The article stated that nothing was ever put on paper and that “no offer was ever made, and no manuscript was produced.”
In another section, however, the article said “everyone” testifies that Harry and Meghan appear to be deeply in love and are “so hot for each other.”
The friend told the Daily Beast, noting that Meghan’s new cooking show has been ridiculed and postponed and that Harry has a grueling court case coming up (more on which below):
“Things aren’t easy for them right now. Vanity Fair have succeeded in making a bad time worse.”
Harry and Meghan did not comment to Vanity Fair, and have not responded to inquiries this week from the Daily Beast about the article.
