Queen Camilla reached out to Piers Morgan to thank him for calling Meghan Markle a “Pinocchio Princess,” a royal expert has alleged.
Author Omid Scobie claims in his new book, “Endgame,” that Camilla appreciated the former “Good Morning Britain” host questioning whether Markle, 42, really experienced suicidal thoughts before she and Prince Harry stepped down from the royal family in 2020.
Back in March 2021, Morgan, 58, tweeted that he “wouldn’t believe [Meghan] if she read me a weather report.”
Morgan left “GMB” that same month after viewers — including Markle herself — complained over the coverage.
Morgan then referred to Markle as “Princess Pinocchio” in a column for the Daily Mail.
According to Scobie, Camilla approved of Markle’s nickname and sent a message to Morgan to thank him for “defending the Firm.”
Scobie claims a royal palace aide then told him that Camilla would never publicly address the matter or “speak ill of others,” but said there was was “gratitude” that “somebody was standing up” to Markle’s claims.
Morgan currently pens a column for The Post.
The Post has contacted reps for Morgan and Buckingham Palace for comment.
Elsewhere in “Endgame,” which hits shelves on Nov. 28, Scobie claims Kate Middleton once “jokingly shivered” at the mention of Markle’s name.
