Meghan Markle and Harry 'nowhere near' Queen says Levin

Meghan Markle, 39, and Prince Harry, 36, are reportedly set to launch their own honours list to highlight the work being done to promote causes close to the couple’s heart. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex hope to celebrate “charitable service, education, science, literature, racial justice, gender equity, environmental stewardship, youth empowerment, health and mental health”, according to The Sun. But royal biographer Angela Levin has accused them of acting like children and said they should not try to compete with the Queen.

Speaking to talkRADIO, Ms Levin said: “I always feel that they’ve reached the end but they somehow manage to dig themselves further down.

“I actually think that to try and compete with Her Majesty the Queen’s honours list is like children playing mummies and daddies.

“It’s just not possible.

“They’re nowhere near the rank.

“I’m astonished that Harry has given up one iota about his family and his wonderful grandmother.

“He was such a great man when I met him and spent over a year with him and now he looks terrified whenever he speaks as if he’s going to get a telling off from Meghan and to agree to something like that is nonsense.”

She added: “It’s just tragic and I don’t think anyone will take notice of them.

“It’s not going to mean that they will have more respect.”

The couple, who stepped down as senior royals in March, have set up a charity foundation as part of their own independent lives.

But royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams has claimed the Duchess will not be giving up her patronages.

They are the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), the Mayhew, the National Theatre in London, and Smart Works.

He told Express.co.uk: “I think that as far as we know there no signs that Eugenie’s going to be taking over any of the patronages that they still have.

“It’s sometimes forgotten that Meghan has several patronages which are based here.

“Obviously at the moment, there’s no sign that she has any intention of giving them up.

“They have roles with the Commonwealth and that I’m sure will continue.”
