Lady Colin Campbell is back, stirring up a storm with her latest exposé, this time focusing on none other than Doria Ragland, Meghan Markle’s mother. Her new book, Meghan and Harry: The Real Story, reads like a tantalizing chapter straight out of a scandalous mystery novel, and it’s causing quite the commotion. With this release, Lady Campbell, practically royalty in the world of gossip, has set tongues wagging and eyebrows raising sky-high.
Known for her bold takes and aristocratic connections, Lady C has made it her mission to peel back the layers of the Sussexes’ public image. This time, she zeroes in on Doria Ragland, delving into a past shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Armed with insider information from high society, Lady C’s latest bombshell explores Doria’s life, painting a picture that’s anything but the doting mother we’ve come to know.
The book suggests that Doria was an absentee mother during much of Meghan’s childhood, reappearing only around the time of Meghan’s graduation—like a character in a soap opera who suddenly emerges after years of absence. But the real shocker is Lady C’s insinuation that Doria’s mysterious disappearance might be linked to a stint in prison for fraud. Yes, you read that right—fraud.
However, Lady Campbell, ever the tactful provocateur, stops just short of making outright accusations, carefully hinting at these claims without crossing the legal line. Meanwhile, Thomas Markle, Meghan’s father and Doria’s ex-husband, remains curiously tight-lipped about her past, adding more fuel to the fire.
As for Meghan, she has remained silent throughout this ordeal, leaving the public to speculate about the truth. The plot thickens as the book reveals alleged details of Doria’s failed business ventures, possible tax evasion, and even suggestions of substance abuse. Lady C goes so far as to imply that Prince Harry might have found a kindred spirit in his mother-in-law due to her supposed connections to high-quality substances.
The book also delves into Doria and Harry’s reportedly strained relationship, with claims that Doria exerts dominance in the household and has influenced Harry’s own struggles with substances. This speculation is tied to Harry’s televised therapy session with Dr. Gabor Maté, where he discussed his challenges with substance use. The narrative further alleges that Meghan herself might be involved in recreational drug use.
Interestingly, both Lady Campbell and Tom Bower, another biographer, claim that Doria spent 10 years in prison for fraud, during which she was absent from Meghan’s life from the ages of 5 to 18. Tom Bower has even hinted that he plans to update his book Revenge to include more details about Doria’s missing years.
When asked why he wrote Revenge, Bower said, “I choose people who don’t want to be written about on the whole, and whose lives are shrouded in mystery. They’ve climbed the greasy pole; they want to be famous, influential, powerful—and they want to hide their secrets. I just love digging away to find those secrets. When Meghan came onto the scene, I thought this is fascinating; how it’s going to play out.”
The fact that neither the Sussexes nor Doria have taken legal action against Tom Bower or Lady C speaks volumes, leaving the public to wonder—what is the real story behind Meghan Markle’s enigmatic mother?
