Perhaps it is this unwavering commitment to decency that led one confidant to compare Doria to a very notable royal indeed: âShe is like the Queen,â an insider told the Mail on Sunday, âshe never complains and never explains.â Indeed, as Prince Harry remains estranged from the royal family, sources have said that Doria has become an increasingly important figure in his life, one to whom the Prince feels he can turn for emotional support.
âMeghan has always trusted her completely but she has become a rock to Harry who, of course, lost his own mother so young,â they said. âDoria has a great warmth. She’s a brilliant cook and is very motherly, but she isn’t someone who seeks attention, and for Harry, her discretion and silence mean the world.â
Doria, who Meghan wrote was mistaken for her nanny due to the color of her skin, spoke fondly of the moment her daughter introduced her to the British Prince for the first time.
âI remember when I first met him,â she reminisced in the coupleâs 2022 documentary series, âa 6â1 handsome man with red hair, really great manners. It was just really nice and they looked really happy together, like he was the one. Once it was announced that they were together it seemed kind of like a novelty.â
