As author William Shawcross put it: "[The Queen Mother] wouldn't acknowledge, let alone confront, disagreeableness within the family." And royal expert Hugo Vickers, who wrote the late royal's biography, says she would have been "so disappointed" with the actions of her great-grandson and his wife. He told The Sun : "I think the Queen Mother would have been absolutely horrified in regards to Meghan and Harry's interview with Oprah. Fundamentally a lot of things that were said in there that were not true and very easy to disprove. I'm sure she would be very unhappy. "The Queen Mother was always someone who if she were unhappy or saw something she didn't like she would just blank it out and just wouldn't refer to it. It didn't happen or the person didn't exist. The Queen Mother was skilled at avoiding any subject she didn't want to){kind=link}
