**Royal Drama Unveiled: Meghan Markle’s Struggle Within the Palace Walls**

Since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry disclosed their intention to step back from their senior royal duties in January, the media's relentless pressure has been a driving force behind their decision.

Palace insiders have continuously leaked information to the tabloids, foreseeing their failure and condemning them for their perceived self-centeredness.

In a shocking revelation, a friend disclosed to the Sunday Times magazine in May that pressures from within the palace also played a significant role in the royal couple's exit.

The friend revealed that Meghan felt there was a conspiracy against her, leading her to isolate herself when they relocated to Frogmore.

The relationship between Meghan and the various palace households had always been strained, with hints that the royal family might have fueled the discord.

Even before Meghan and Harry's relationship blossomed, aides were already gossiping about Meghan's swift integration into the royal circle.

According to the book “Finding Freedom,” senior royals disparaged Meghan early on, with one unnamed member labeling her as Harry's showgirl and another insinuating that she carried considerable baggage.

Prior to meeting Meghan in November 2016, Prince William had expressed doubts about her intentions to his aides.

Tensions escalated following their wedding in May 2018, particularly surrounding staffing issues, notably when Meghan's personal assistant resigned after just six months.

Allegations of Meghan being demanding and difficult emerged, with reports suggesting that her behavior contributed to the assistant's departure.

Despite the negative publicity, Meghan faced even more scrutiny over her son Archie's birth, with social media abuzz with conspiracy theories.

Similar accusations have plagued royal births in the past, including King James II's wife Mary of Modena, who faced similar claims in 1688.

The tradition of verifying royal births was abolished by Queen Elizabeth in 1948, granting royal women more privacy during childbirth.

However, recent reports suggest that the Queen is contemplating reinstating this practice for Meghan due to alleged misinformation spread by the Duchess.

A source close to the royal family hinted at a forthcoming lesson for Meghan, implying that the Queen is prepared to address the issue decisively.

Within the palace walls, a complex network of communication staffers, aides, and courtiers disseminate information, some through gossip and others from overheard conversations.

Reflecting on Meghan's tumultuous tenure in the royal family, distinguishing factual information from hearsay and reputation management proves challenging.

Scobie and Duron's account highlights the struggles faced by different staff members, from those grappling with increased workload due to media intrusion to traditionalists who harbored animosity towards Meghan from the outset.
