Speaking to The Daily Beast, Stefanie Powers, who befriended Prince Charles years ago through their love of polo, said: “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous’ ‘The Adventures of Meghan in the Palace’.

“[Meghan] wants to be a star, which, I’m sorry, is not what she is supposed to be doing. Meghan’s role is not about being a star.

“It’s her job to be Harry’s wife, not change the royal dynamic.”

She also made the critical claim that Meghan’s acting career and role in hit legal drama Suits was a “bit player in a minor television series.”

On the flip side, Stefanie praised Kate Middleton for being “impeccable” and for never putting a “foot wrong.”

 

Also getting praise in the two-hour interview was Princess Anne, with Stefanie saying the royal is “totally committed to what she does.”

Stefanie gushed: “She has stepped back, and doesn’t make a circus of life whenever she steps out. She’s the real thing. She’s kind of mischievous. She has a wicked twinkle.”

Unsurprisingly, Prince Andrew isn’t popular with the actress, who slammed him for being “stupid” and for making a fool of himself.
