She believed the cover was racist.

According to the Daily Mail, Markle took exception to the cover line: She’s Just Wild About Harry. The song was a blackface number performed by Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney in 1939’s Babes in Arms.

Valentine Low’s new book, Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown, details the episode that offers a preview of Megxit.

The dour duchess even wanted to fire her new flack over the cover, Keleigh Thomas Morgan of Sunshine Sachs. It was a far cry from when the popular glossy first approached.

Markle was said to be ecstatic. But her tune soon changed when it was made clear the point of the article was her relationship with Prince Harry, not Meghan Markle.

According to The Times of London, Markle was under specific orders from the palace to steer clear of sensitive topics like politics, racism and her relationship with Prince Harry.

And here she was thinking one of the world’s most influential magazines wanted to talk about Suits.

But somehow, the book reports, Markle somehow convinced Prince Harry that the story would focus on the 100th episode of the legal drama that filmed in Toronto.
