Meghan Markle has been accused of making bold demands behind palace doors — and the revelations are raising eyebrows across royal circles. According to royal commentator Kinsey Schofield, the Duchess of Sussex was allegedly “fixated” on what Princess Kate had and pushed for a far more luxurious living arrangement after marrying Prince Harry.
Schofield claimed that shortly after the 2018 wedding, Meghan approached palace officials to ask whether she and Harry could be given private suites inside Windsor Castle itself — the same historic residence closely associated with Queen Elizabeth II. The request was reportedly seen as unusually ambitious, with suggestions that Meghan hoped to share space within the monarch’s own residence.
The royal expert alleged the move stemmed from Meghan’s desire for “something of similar value” to what the then Duchess of Cambridge enjoyed, implying a direct comparison between the two royal women. The comments resurfaced after the Sussexes’ Netflix docuseries appeared to criticize the home they were provided during their time in the UK.
While the palace has never publicly addressed the claim, the accusation has fueled ongoing debate about Meghan’s expectations, her reported dissatisfaction with royal life, and the growing tension behind the scenes long before Harry and Meghan stepped away from royal duties.
What really happened inside the palace walls — and how far did those demands go?
