When Michelle Obama Meets Princess Meghan: Was She ‘Alarmed’ by Meghan’s attitude ?

July 23, 2022 by AFRIPOL Leave a Comment

Duchess of Sussex Medhan and Michelle Obama

A new book publication of Tom Bower’s Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors claimed that Michelle Obama was “alarmed” by Meghan’s attitude when they met for first time in 2018 at a book event in London.

In the book on “a chapter of Revenge assessing Meghan’s struggles with life in the royal spotlight following her marriage to Prince Harry in May 2018, Bower has claimed that the duchess sought out friendship with former-First Lady Michelle Obama and hoped to form a connection while the global figure was in London promoting her memoir.”

The author of the Book, Tom Bower wrote: “Meghan spotted an opportunity after Michelle Obama arrived in London to promote her bestselling autobiography.”


“Having secured tickets to hear the former First Lady make her inspirational speech in the Royal Festival Hall on 3rd December, 2018, she went backstage afterwards to meet her hero.


“Determined to fashion a special relationship, Meghan had also arranged that they would meet again for dinner at George Clooney’s house near Windsor,” he continued.


“As an idol to be emulated, Michelle Obama was also a good source of advice and consolation for Meghan.”

The writer claimed that Michelle Obama was not impressed by the forthright behavior of Duchess Meghan: “Meghan’s attitude alarmed Michelle. Her advice to Meghan was delivered in public.”

“‘Take some time,’ Obama said in an interview, ‘and don’t be in a hurry to do anything.’

“In a warning note, she added: ‘Like me, Meghan probably never dreamt she’d have a life like this; no-deal, the pressure you feel can sometimes feel like a lot.’ Meghan, Obama suggested, should be reasonable: ‘What I’d say is that there’s so much opportunity to do good with a platform like that and I think Meghan can maximise her impact for others, as well her own happiness, if she’s doing something that resonates with her personally.'”

The book, Tom Bower’s Revenge cannot be wholly digested by readers as factual for the writer has a poetic license to add little salt and pepper here and there, in order to make it a best seller, good read and attractive to the senses.
