Magazine.“I think it would have looked a bit disingenuous, probably to slap photos up there with really no noticeable communication going on behind the scenes,” she continued.Dunlop also added that she thinks there’s been a “firmer line drawn in the sand” between the Sussexes and the royal family, especially off the heels of Prince Harry’s bombshell January tell-all memoir, “Spare,” and their December Netflix docu-series, “Harry & Meghan.”In both of the projects, the couple made many allegations about the royal family — including Prince Harry’s claim in “Spare” that his brother, Prince William, 41, physically “attacked” him during a spat over Markle before they stepped down from their roles as senior royals in 2020.
