Queen Consort Camilla was left hurt by one particular accusation in Prince Harry’s recent memoir, which criticised members of the Royal Family. The controversial memoir detailed the Prince’s life from losing his mother to meeting his wife Meghan Markle.

In Spare, which was released in January, Prince Harry claimed his stepmother Camilla leaked stories about the royal family to the media to improve her own image. In the book, Prince Harry said: “I have complex feelings about gaining a step-parent who I thought had recently sacrificed me on her personal PR altar.”

During ITV’s Harry: The Interview, the Duke of Sussex also claimed stories began to be leaked after both he and his brother “begged” Charles not to marry Camilla. In a new interview, sources close to the Queen Consort claim she was left ‘hurt’ by Prince Harry.

Fiona Petty-Fitzmaurice, Marchioness of Lansdowne, told The Sunday Times: “Of course it bothers her, of course it hurts. But she doesn’t let it get to her,” Ms Petty-Fitzmaurice is one of the Queen’s six companions and is married to Charles, 9th Marquess of Lansdowne.
