Meghan Markle’s ideas are ‘total crap’, claims former editor who calls Prince Harry ‘lamb to slaughter’

LONDON, ENGLAND: Former Vanity Fair editor-in-chief Tina Brown claimed Meghan Markle's "ideas are total crap" and added that she believes Prince Harry is a "naive", "lamb to the slaughter" in her honest assessment of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

The ex-Vanity Fair and the New Yorker editor talked about the royal pair to promote her new Substack, Fresh Hell. She also acknowledged that starting a business with Harvey Weinstein in the late 1990s was "the dumbest career move of anybody’s life", per Page Six.

Tina Brown criticizes Meghan Markle and Prince Harry

During an appearance on 'The Ankler' podcast with Janice Win, Tina Brown claimed that Meghan Markle has the worst judgment "in the entire world" after previously calling the Sussexes' exit from the royal family a "disaster" and accusing them of being "addicted to drama".

On the most recent episode of 'The Ankler' podcast, host Janice Min questioned the British editor, who took over New York in the 1980s, about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Without holding back, Brown said: "The trouble with Meghan is that she has the worst judgment of anyone in the entire world. She's flawless about getting it all wrong. All of her ideas are total crap, unfortunately."

Brown described the former 'Suits' star, who is now the founder of American Riviera Orchard, as a "perfectionist about getting it all wrong".

"Her issue is that she doesn’t listen. She has all these people, asks them their opinion, and then doesn’t follow it. She does what she wants to do. And all of her ideas are total crap, unfortunately," the ex-editor seethed.

Brown, Princess Diana's biographer and author of 'The Palace Papers: Inside The House Of Windsor - The Truth And The Turmoil,' also asserted that Prince Harry "blindly" adopts Meghan's beliefs, calling him "the lamb to the slaughter in this situation".

Regarding Harry's perspective, Brown believed that "he’s so naive and really unschooled in the ways of the world. Being Prince Harry means that I doubt if he ever booked a table in a restaurant."

She added, "The army was great for him, and he was extremely good and competent in there. That really helped turn him into a real person."

"He [Harry] was terribly impressed by Meghan. He thought that she knew all, she persuaded him that she was the savvy Hollywood wheeler-dealer who could come in and make them stars and all the rest of it. And he just sort of blindly followed her like a child," Brown added.

Brown remarked on Markle's actions and future, saying, "Unfortunately, she made every mistake in the book, and she’s kind of run out of road... Harry could still, as I say, make a comeback. He’ll always be Prince Harry. He’ll always be the grandson of the Queen and the son of Diana."

Tina Brown previously described Prince Harry as 'impetuous'

Tina Brown has a history of exposing the royal family. The author claimed in 2022 that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made "bad choices" and that they could have left the royal family on much better terms if they had not been so "hotheaded" about quitting their positions as working royals.

The former Vanity Fair editor previously claimed in 2022 that Prince Harry was a "very impetuous man" and that many advisors at the Palace had "always thought he would leave".

"He was so fragile, so combustible, he was so unhappy, frankly, in the constraints of the royal family," Brown said at the time, per Daily Mail.

She did, however, add that the couple's departure from royal life was a "disaster all round".

Tina Brown calls past collaboration with Harvey Weinstein 'dumbest career move'

Tina Brown also addressed her time producing the failed Talk Magazine with former film producer Harvey Weinstein and his Miramax Films in the late 1990s.

She told Min, "The Harvey that I went to work for had just [produced] ‘The English Patient,’ so he was the god of quality at that point."

"And, in probably the dumbest career move of anybody’s life, I left the New Yorker magazine to go into business with Harvey," Brown noted.

Weinstein is in prison awaiting a new trial for serious allegations in New York following the overturning of his 23-year sentence in April. He is also facing a trial in Los Angeles and another indictment.
