Meghan Markle was said to be “hysterical” after breaking Prince Harry’s strict orders
Meghan Markle was reportedly “hysterical” after breaking Prince Harry’s strict orders in an interview, before she was even engaged to the now-Duke of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍.
Back in 2017, before her marriage to Prince Harry the following year, Meghan sat down with Sam Kashner at Vanity Fair for a tell-all chat about her background and her time starring in Suits as Rachel Zane. But before she sat down for the interview, it is alleged that her husband-to-be gave her a list of three things she was prohibited from discussing with the outlet during her chat.
Royal expert Tom Bower has claimed that Harry gave Meghan a list of three things she couldn’t talk about during her 2017 interview. And Meghan seemingly attempted to steer the conversation away from her relationship with Harry after she was asked to do so by her husband-to-be – but then failed when the entire interview was angled around her relationship with the Prince.

Writing about the chat in his new book Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War between the Windsors, Bower wrote: “Kashner arrived at Meghan’s home and was told that his interviewee had been given strict instructions by both Harry and Keleigh Thomas Morgan [a publicist at PR firm Sunshine Sachs]. Knowing that Diana and Sarah Ferguson had ruined their reputations in interviews, Harry had asked Meghan to keep quiet about sensitive subjects – Donald Trump, race, their relationship and especially himself. He was not to be mentioned.”
The Vanity Fair interview and accompanying front cover, which came out seven years ago ended up being published with the headline “She’s Just Wild About Harry”, which meant that Harry’s plan for Meghan to not speak about him didn’t quite happen. In his book, Tom added: “Within hours, Meghan called Ken Sunshine [founder of Sunshine Sachs Consultants] and Keleigh Thomas Morgan. Hysterically, she described Buckingham Palace’s fury at ‘Wild About Harry’. Sunshine Sachs said Meghan should have ensured that her comments about Harry were removed. Why wasn’t the focus on her philanthropy and activism?”
