The real reason Vanity Fair turned on Meghan and Harry REVEALED

Vanity Fair's damning dissection of the Sussexes' five years in America could have its roots in a row that allegedly began with Meghan's 2017 cover story in which she officially announced to the world she was 'in love' with Harry. For last week's savage takedown, headlined 'American Hustle, contributing editor Anna Peele spoke to 'dozens' of sources connected to the duo who labelled the Sussexes as the 'most entitled, disingenuous people on the planet'.

But why did the formerly pro-Sussex publication turn against Meghan and Harry? It seems the relationship soured when the Duke and Duchess of Sussex allegedly accused Vanity Fair of publishing a 'racist headline' on her cover story in October 2017. It was unlikely Meghan would have made the front cover of the celebrity bible off the back of her role in Suits, but when the magazine landed a major coup by securing the first interview with Prince Harry's then girlfriend, it was naturally a sensation.

However, according to Valentine Low's book, Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown, Meghan was unhappy that, despite being a positive piece, the focus of the story was her relationship with Harry. She also allegedly complained that the cover line was racist, and the couple reportedly tried to have the headline on the digital edition changed.

Perhaps this cooling of relations between Meghan and the publication laid the seeds for the latest bombshell article, which claimed that some people who worked with Meghan ended up needing therapy and that she allegedly didn't come up with the idea for her Spotify podcast, Archetypes.
