The book also said that despite having "great affection" for Prince Harry, the late monarch was "tired" of his and Meghan Markle's criticism of the royal family. Queen Elizabeth also thought Prince Harry was "so consumed" by his love for Meghan Markle that it was "clouding his judgment", the book said. "In truth, by the time his grandmother died, Harry had precious few supporters left in the family.

Even the Queen, who had always had great affection for him, -eventually tired of his outbursts," the book noted.

Then Harry and Meghan had started -publicly criticising both the monarchy and members of the Royal Family," it added.

The Queen "felt let down" by Prince Harry's decision to step down from his royal duties, but also considered it as "a missed opportunity" while hoping Harry would "find peace and happiness" in his new life, the book said.

Prince Harry regularly called his grandmother after moving to California, but she felt "troubled" when he asked her to voice his complaints to King Charles, it added.
