Prince Philip welcomed royal women like Diana and Meghan with open arms. Then they rebelled
ABCAn exiled European royal who thought of himself as an outsider early on, Prince Philip found his place in the world through sacrifice and service to the British monarchy. "Philip became more and more irritated with Fergie and what he described as her 'antics'," royal biographer Ingrid Seward claimed in the book Prince Philip Revealed. "I will always be grateful that my wife had so many years to get to know my grandfather, and for the kindness he showed her," Prince William said after Prince Philip's death. "Philip welcomed Meghan at the beginning, he knows what it's like to be an outsider, and so he's always very supportive of people marrying into the family," biographer Ingrid Seward said. According to Prince Philip's biographer and friend of 40 years, Gyles Brandreth, the duke ultimately accepted Harry and Meghan's decision to leave royal life behind.
