• The author of Diana, Closely Guarded Secret expressed his thoughts on Meghan Markle’s exit from the royal family in an interview with Mark Dolan.

Meghan Markle made shocking claims about the royal family.

The Duchess’ remarks have made headlines and generated debate on both sides of the Atlantic.

In the midst of the criticism and reaction, Princess Diana’s former bodyguard suggested that Meghan should have given royal life a chance.

Ken Wharfe, who served as Princess Diana’s bodyguard for five years and also provided security for Prince Harry and Prince William, spoke out against the royal family’s present schism, saying Diana would have halted ‘Megxit.’

In an interview with Mark Dolan, the author of Diana, Closely Guarded Secret expressed his thoughts, saying, “I think what has been missing, from my observations over the last few years, is that they needed someone to broker this set up really.”

“It doesn’t quite make sense that as two young kids they were sort of joined at the hip really,” he claimed.

He shared his thoughts on Meghan and Harry, stating that “Diana, I think, certainly would have understood where Harry was coming from in terms of wanting a change of life.”

“But would have understood clearly, ‘Look, hang on a minute, let’s just give this a bit of time.’ Because their departure was really sudden from the royal family,” he stated.

“I don’t think Meghan gave it a real chance,” the author claimed.

Wharfe finished by saying, “I think their exit was rather premature but who knows. Personally, I think we could see Harry and Meghan return in a new style, in a new format. Who knows? There’s a lot of conversation going on about this.”
