Queen Elizabeth II's cousin has claimed the late monarch was not a fan of Meghan Markle and was 'dismayed' by the pre-wedding row she had with Prince Harry.

The late monarch reportedly questioned the sincerity of the former 'Suits' star and privately voiced her concerns to a trusted confidante.

The fresh controversy stems from insights provided by Lady Elizabeth Anson, a renowned party planner and the Queen's cousin. She disclosed that Queen Elizabeth II was deeply dissatisfied with the entire "Megxit" situation and claimed that Prince Harry had been "rude to her [the Queen] for ten minutes".
