Fresh chatter suggests Meghan Markle could be facing a deeply uncomfortable memoir — this time from former best friend Jessica Mulroney.

According to claims attributed to gossip writer Rob Shuter and unnamed publishing insiders, Mulroney has allegedly been approached about a book deal worth up to $1 million. One source claims, “Jessica has absolutely nothing left to lose,” adding, “She saw everything. And she remembers all of it.” Mulroney was once firmly inside Meghan’s Toronto inner circle and closely involved in the 2018 royal wedding before their friendship collapsed after Mulroney’s 2020 public controversy.

Meanwhile, a chocolate promo video featuring Prince Harry has sparked online fascination after eagle-eyed viewers spotted military patches, a “Love You Papa” card believed to be from Archie and Lilibet, and a photo of Princess Diana inside Harry’s home office.

There are also renewed whispers about Harry’s emotional pull toward Britain, with sources claiming he sees the UK as “unfinished business,” even as his family life remains rooted in California. Add in resurfaced claims about Meghan’s long-term ambitions, friction with Queen Camilla, and fresh criticism of her As Ever brand — and it’s another week of relentless Sussex speculation.

As royal turbulence continues, questions are also swirling around a potential U.S. visit by King Charles and whether Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s legal cloud could complicate diplomatic plans.

00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:10.560
A Caloroga Shark Media, Hello and welcome to Palace Intrigue

2
00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:14.279
Game Hurst Mark Francis. Megan Markele is reportedly concerned about

3
00:00:14.279 --> 00:00:17.480
the possibility of a tell all memoir from her former

4
00:00:17.559 --> 00:00:21.760
close friend Jessica mulroney, according to claims attributed to gossip

5
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:26.359
writer Rob Shooter and unnamed publishing sources. The report says

6
00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:28.960
publishers have been approaching mulroney about a deal sent to

7
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:31.679
be worth up to one million dollars, with one source

8
00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:35.719
quoted as saying, Jessica has absolutely nothing left to lose.

9
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:38.439
Megan cut her off years ago. The friendship is dead.

10
00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:41.679
The loyalty went with it. Another source claimed she saw

11
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:44.880
everything and she remembers all of it. The piece notes

12
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:47.399
that mulroney was part of Meghan's inner circle during her

13
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:50.399
time in Toronto and played a prominent role around the

14
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:54.079
twenty eighteen wedding, with her children taking part in the ceremony.

15
00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.640
It also references mulroney previously saying she would never speak

16
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:01.159
publicly about the friendship and It's an but argues that

17
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.319
a book offer could change that, with industry figures suggesting

18
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:08.680
any account would be specific, personal and deeply uncomfortable and

19
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:12.120
warning if she talks, Meghan won't like what she hears.

20
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:16.079
The report also revisits the long discussed turning point in

21
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:19.439
twenty twenty, when mulroney became embroiled in a public dispute

22
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:24.359
involving influencer Sasha Exeter, described in the article as a white,

23
00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:27.760
privileged row. It ends with an unnamed source making a

24
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:31.959
pointed claim about Meghan's response to controversy, saying, classic Megan.

25
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:36.000
The moment trouble hits, she detaches, no mess, no mercy.

26
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:39.640
Meghan's recent chocolate video, the one she dragged Harry into,

27
00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:42.719
has offered a brief glimpse inside Prince Harry's home office.

28
00:01:43.319 --> 00:01:46.239
Visible behind him as a glass display case containing what

29
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:49.159
appears to be a collection of military patches, which have

30
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:51.560
been reported to be gifts from the Ukrainian team at

31
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:56.319
the Invictor's Games, the International Adaptive Sports Competition founded by Harry.

32
00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.439
Also displayed on the wall as a card reading Love

33
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.879
You Papa, believed to be from the couple's children, Prince

34
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:04.439
Archie and Princess Lillabet. Next to the card is a

35
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.560
framed photograph that Royal Watch is identified as an image

36
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:10.280
of Harry with his late mother, Princess Diana. The photo

37
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:13.319
shows Diana in a white swimsuit with sunglasses resting on

38
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:16.199
her head as a young Harry hugs her from behind.

39
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:20.159
Harry is said to be filling a continual emotional pull

40
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.080
toward Britain, even as his family's day to day life

41
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.960
remains firmly based in California. A source close to the

42
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:30.000
Sussex's tells Radar Online Harry has always seen Britain as

43
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:33.840
unfinished business. California is where their family functions on a

44
00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:37.560
practical level, and it suits Megan and the children's daily lives.

45
00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:40.759
But for Harry, there is a constant emotional gravity pulling

46
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.680
him back to Britain. He has never emotionally closed that chapter.

47
00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:48.319
Another insider who has known the prince since his school days,

48
00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:52.039
said Harry views the idea of dividing his time between

49
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.439
the United States and the United Kingdom as a personal

50
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:57.759
matter rather than a political one. Harry frames the idea

51
00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:01.039
of splitting his time as something deeply personal rather than political.

52
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:04.199
He wants his children to understand where he comes from

53
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:07.159
and what shaped him, but he is equally determined not

54
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:11.120
to dismantle the life routine and stability he has created

55
00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:14.719
for them in California. Friends say Harry hopes his children

56
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:17.800
will also build connections with their British relatives, although any

57
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:21.560
wider contact depends on agreement across the family. One source

58
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:25.000
said Harry genuinely values the privacy and autonomy that life

59
00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:27.520
in the US has given him and his family. At

60
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:30.159
the same time, he carries a persistent concern that his

61
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:33.199
children are growing up disconnected from a fundamental part of

62
00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:36.000
who they are and where they come from. This is

63
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.560
not about resuming royal duties. It's about roots, memory, and

64
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:42.759
a sense of belonging. Another source said there is no

65
00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:45.400
doubt that the children are being raised as Californians in

66
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:48.360
every practical sense. What matters to Harry, though, is that

67
00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:51.560
they also develop an emotional connection to Britain, even if

68
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.840
that ultimately means growing up with one foot in each world.

69
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:59.280
Claims about Megan Markel's long term ambitions have resurfaced following

70
00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:02.800
comments from royal commentators. Royal expert Angela Levin was asked

71
00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:05.400
by talk TV host Mark Dolan about what she believed

72
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:09.199
Meghan's ultimate goals were in relation to the Royal family.

73
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:11.879
Dolan asked, what do you think her goals are in

74
00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:14.919
relation to the family. What is the endgame? Levin responded,

75
00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:17.920
The endgame is that she is queen. That's it. Yes,

76
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:20.240
I've said that several times. In other words, Megan will

77
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:22.759
run the country. We'll jump in here to point out

78
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:24.959
there for that to happen, Harry would need to be king,

79
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:27.240
as Harry is fifth then lyon, there would have to

80
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:31.279
be an unspeakable scenario for Meghan to become queen. As

81
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:33.480
for the actual queen, Meghan is said to be unlikely

82
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:36.360
to soften her feelings towards Camilla if she and Prince

83
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:40.240
Harry were ever to relocate back to the UK. One

84
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:43.600
source told Radar Online she's convinced Camilla has been trying

85
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:46.279
to undermine her and Painter as the villain from day one,

86
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:49.120
and she's animant that she won't open herself up to

87
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:53.240
more cruelty. She's been so openly critical of Megan within

88
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:55.600
They're in a circle from almost the very beginning. It's

89
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.240
like she's taken it upon herself to be the family attack.

90
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:01.240
Targan has said out loud, might think, but are too

91
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:05.120
polite to actually articulate. Megan is willing to be conciliatory

92
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:07.279
and take the high road with a lot of people.

93
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:11.480
But Camilla is a different story. Another source said Meghan

94
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:13.240
made a real effort with Camilla back when she was

95
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.600
still living in the UK, but she's way past playing

96
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:18.040
nice and kissing up to her. She has seen that

97
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:20.839
gets her nowhere. She's not planning to start a scene,

98
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:22.920
but she's not going to pretend everything is fine and

99
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:25.920
playing nice with Camella. If Camilla wants to keep playing dirty,

100
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.480
Megan is ready to hit back. Royal expert Jenny Bond

101
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:33.560
spoke to The Mirror about Meghan's lifestyle brand as ever

102
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:37.759
and her foray into television. Bond suggested that the experience

103
00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:40.800
may have been more challenging than expected, saying I think

104
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:43.040
it just goes to prove that making a successful TV

105
00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:45.639
series is not as easy as she might have thought.

106
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:48.680
No doubt people tuned into the first series out of

107
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.399
curiosity to see what she had to offer, and I

108
00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:53.199
think the show was fine as far as it went.

109
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:57.639
The trouble is that this is a saturated market, cooking chatting,

110
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:01.360
style tips etc. Commonplace on social media as well as

111
00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:03.920
on TV. There was nothing original about the show, and

112
00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.560
although Megan was perfectly pleasant as a presenter, she didn't

113
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:10.399
really have anything unique to offer beyond the fact that

114
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:13.120
she's married to a prince who hardly appeared. It didn't

115
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:14.920
help that it wasn't even filmed in their own home,

116
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:17.079
so viewers couldn't get a peak behind the scenes of

117
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:24.560
their domestic life. More Palace in just a moment, sources

118
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.560
say King Charles has been expected to travel to the

119
00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:29.279
United States in the spring, with the timing intended to

120
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:32.279
coincide with the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the

121
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:35.879
signing of the US Declaration of Independence. That plan is

122
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:39.319
now said to be understrained as renewed controversy gathers pace

123
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:43.160
around Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and his links to Jeffrey Epstein.

124
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:45.920
The latest focus as a growing push for Andrew to

125
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:48.839
be called before US lawmakers to account for his relationship

126
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:53.399
with Epstein, a prospect that has unsettled Palace officials. One

127
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:56.279
royal insider said the fresh release of documents as complicated

128
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:59.600
planning for any American visit by the King, explaining every

129
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:02.800
apperiod now risks reopening questions the Palace wants to put

130
00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:06.519
behind it. The latest files make a visit politically toxic,

131
00:07:07.399 --> 00:07:10.800
another source said, with scrutiny piling back on Trump and

132
00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:13.000
Andrew at the same time, there was real concern a

133
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:16.480
US visit would be overshadowed from day one. It would

134
00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:19.600
not be diplomatically frowned upon if Charles now canceled it

135
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:23.480
over the weekend. In his substact, Deep Crown wrote about

136
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:26.079
how King William is likely to not have enough royals

137
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:29.759
to go around. In The Express, Chris Riches asks if

138
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:34.040
one candidate should bother. Riches writes, just before Christmas, an

139
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:36.519
unassuming twenty two year old sat on the floor of

140
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:39.759
a packed two hour intercity train ride from London to

141
00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:42.959
Bristol doing some university work on her laptop. If you

142
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:44.720
didn't know who she was, you would have thought the

143
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:47.360
studious young woman was not going to let a shortage

144
00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:50.639
of seats and some discomfort stop her English degree studies.

145
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:54.079
But if you did recognize Lady Louise Windsor, you'd say

146
00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:56.240
that despite being the only daughter of the Duke and

147
00:07:56.360 --> 00:07:59.480
Duchess of Edinburgh and seventeenth in line to the throne,

148
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:02.920
who level headed actions sum her up, such a down

149
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:05.120
to earth royal would be a huge asset to King

150
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:08.680
Charles and Prince William, especially after the crisis of Andrew

151
00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:12.079
Mount Patton Windsor, Sarah Ferguson and their Epstin connections. But

152
00:08:12.199 --> 00:08:14.759
Lady Louise would be mad to become a working royal

153
00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:18.120
because right now she has everything. After the doom and

154
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:20.959
gloom emanating from the US Epstein files and swirling around

155
00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.240
Andrew and Sarah, the country is in severe need of

156
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:26.600
sensible royals who bring hope and joy. But although her

157
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:30.160
country may need Lady Louise, it could be that she

158
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:33.799
