The late Queen Elizabeth II was reportedly furious after surrogacy rumors about Meghan Markle began spreading like wildfire within royal circles and the media. According to insider accounts revealed after the Queen’s passing, she felt deeply betrayed and insulted by the growing controversies surrounding the births of Archie and Lilibet. The Queen reportedly viewed these rumors as damaging personal attacks that not only tarnished the image of her family but also betrayed the institution she dedicated her life to serving.

Despite battling cancer and declining health in her final years, the Queen kept her emotions private but deliberately distanced herself from Meghan and Harry, including refusing to partake in any official photographs with their children. Those close to her say she believed Meghan had manipulated Prince Harry and exploited royal connections for personal gain. The surrogacy rumors, in particular, were described by the Queen as a humiliating circus, dragging the monarchy through mud and undermining decades of royal tradition.
While the Queen never publicly addressed the surrogacy scandal due to legal and moral constraints—especially as head of the Church of England—she expressed sharp private disapproval. Many insiders say she felt Meghan treated the responsibilities of royalty as mere formalities rather than a serious duty. The Queen is said to have compared Meghan and Harry's relationship to "a fast car with no brakes," fearing Meghan’s influence was steering Harry and the royal institution into chaos.
Royal allies and journalists confirm these sentiments were whispered behind palace walls long before being released to the press, with many afraid to speak openly while Meghan was in the spotlight. Now that the tide is turning, confidantes reveal the Queen’s final months were marked by heartbreak and humiliation over the ongoing family strife and public attacks.
This revelation adds a poignant layer to the late Queen’s legacy, showing her deep personal pain behind the stoic public facade amidst the Sussex family controversies.
