Meghan warned months after marrying Prince Harry

Meghan Markle has been warned that life in the Royal Family might not be as smooth as she thought.

Princess Diana's former butler Paul Burrell warned Markle that she is likely to struggle with the pressures she will have as a member of the Royal Family.

The former footman to the Queen also said Meghan, who turns 37 tomorrow, should to get on with having a baby as "there's not much time left".

He added that two children 'would be enough' for Prince Harry, 33, who is ready to start a family and believes that the Duchess will fall pregnant within the first year of marriage.


Mr Burrell makes his claims in an exclusive interview about the Royals, for Yahoo News' weekly six-part series, The Royal Box.

He also gave his views on the Royal Family's treatment of her dad Thomas Markle.

While he said that there is 'no protocol' for dealing with in-laws he added that 'somebody has to fix' the situation.

Mr Burrell adds that he doesn’t think Charles will become King, speaks about his experiences in the palace and shares his personal moments with Diana.

He said: "Meghan wanted to be famous. Now she has that, but be careful what you wish for because sometimes it's not all it seems.

"Diana found that out at an early age."

He also refers to Meghan and her father’s relationship as “broken” and advises Thomas to “stay quiet” to fix his relationship with his daughter.
