'Disingenuous' Meghan Markle 'always planned to leave the Royals' and Harry is 'barely recognisable'

Prince Harry is 'barely recognisable' while Meghan Markle is 'totally disingenuous' and 'always planned to leave the Royals', a royal biographer has claimed.

Speaking exclusively to The Royal Beat, available on True Royalty TV, royal expert Robert Jobson who knew the late Princess' 'well' alleged the Duchess of Sussex, 39, had always planned to leave the Royal Family.

'I think she had a plan from the outset that she wasn't going to stick with it [The Royal Family] and it didn't take long, before all that thanking the royal family,' he commented.

Elsewhere, former Buckingham Palace Press Officer Dickie Arbiter called the Sussexes' statement on their future 'petulant, rude and immature'.

The Queen's decision to remove Harry and Meghan's royal patronages because a 'life of public service' is not compatible with the couple's lucrative new career in America sparked a barbed response from the Sussexes.

The royal couple stated 'service is universal', which Royal sources called 'horribly disrespectful' and ''you can't line your pockets while undertaking official duties'.

The Royals are braced for Harry and Meghan to hit back at the Palace in an interview with Oprah Winfrey - who flew into California on her £50million private jet and was with the couple hours before they released their statement.

'They are not going to rubbish the Royal Family, because it is not in their interest,' Dickie Arbiter said. 'So they will talk about the 'suits', how the officials didn't back them up.'

'They will certainly talk about what they are aiming to achieve; they will talk about family life, babies, and motherhood. They will talk about the British media because that sticks in the craw as fair as they are concerned.'
