Showdown At The Races!

A bitter attack on Meghan forces the Queen to hold crisis talks with the young royals

It should be a honeymoon period for the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex as they enjoy the afterglow of their romantic wedding and start their new life together.

But their first weeks as husband and wife have been marred by a bitter attack on Meghan by Harry’s cousins, who launched at the new princess at the races last week.

Now, heartbroken and incredibly intimidated as she tries to navigate her duties as a royal, Meghan, 36, is begging Harry to put a stop to their cruel taunts. At the core of the attack by Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie is Eugenie’s belief that Meghan has sabotaged her wedding to fiance Jack Brooksbank.

Eugenie, 28, is due to marry on October 12 at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle – the same place Meghan and Harry were married. However, the youngest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson believes the shine has been stolen from her big day by Meghan, who many are already calling the new People’s Princess.

“A battle has been brewing between Eugenie, Beatrice and Meghan for months, and it finally came to a head late last month when Eugenie lost her patience and let rip at Meghan – accusing her of trying to bulldoze her wedding plans,” one royal insider, who saw the drama unfold at Royal Ascot last week, tells us.
