RUMOURS PLAGUE DUCHESS MEGHAN

While the Royal newlyweds seem to be living in a perpetual Honeymoon, the constant scrutiny of the avid press has given rise to some unpleasant rumors.

It is said that Prince Harry was warned by the Queen to curb his future bride's temper. This incident apparently occurred when the future Duchess was selecting a tiara to match her wedding dress.

Duchess Meghan has apparently wanted to wear an emerald tiara and was refused. Prince Harry is said to have "hit the roof" and was thereafter chastised by Queen Elizabeth.

Kensington Palace has not confirmed the veracity of the reported story.
