The authors wrote: “In those last two words, ‘this girl’, Harry heard the tone of snobbishness that was anathema to his approach to the world.”

Meanwhile, the book – which promised to reveal the true story of Meghan and Harry’s life – claims Harry felt that royal staff favoured William.

The writers added: “Harry was upset that it was playing out so publicly and that so much of the information being reported was wrong.

“There had been moments where he felt people working with his brother had put things out there to make William look good, even if it meant throwing Harry under the bus.”
