Lady Colin Campbell has claimed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tried to ‘influence’ her upcoming tell-all book Meghan And Harry: The Real Story.

 The Jamaican-born British writer, 70, is releasing a book she has written with the help of her sons , Dimitri and Michael, who appeared on an MTV reality show with Meghan’s nephew Tyler Dooley, which she claims tells their real story – though it is not known if she has ever met Meghan, 38, or Harry, 35.

The release of the book is said to coincide with Harry and Meghan’s new biography Finding Freedom in August, which is co-written by Harper’s Bazaar journalist Omid Scobie. 

But in a new interview uploaded to her YouTube account this week, Lady Colin claims the couple’s friends ‘called her to influence her book’, and said she thinks they are keen to get the biography released before her own book.

The socialite, who was married to Lord Colin Campbell for one year in 1974, sniped: ‘I had been told that she was desperate to get her book out earlier, or at least coincide with mine, because their book is ‘their’ version of the truth.’

She ranted: ‘The fact is that Meghan and Harry’s book, which is basically her book, it’s written by her good friend Marcus Anderson’s ex-boyfriend Omid Scobie, who has been beating the drum for Meghan all along. 

And when asked whether Harry and Meghan tried to ‘influence Lady Colin Campbell’ book, she claimed: ‘Yes they did. They were getting mutual friends to ring me up to influence the narrative, to feed me stuff, some of I was receptive too, some of it I was not.’

She then claimed that Diana ‘also tried to influence the narrative of her book on the late royal, claiming the next generation had not ‘learned’, adding: ‘I will not go into it, it’s in the book, but it was absolutely beyond belief, and I was outraged.’
