MEGHAN KNOWS BEST
Strong-minded Meghan Markle will ‘butt heads’ with her nannies when the royal baby is born, claims her sister Samantha
The Duchess of Sussex's half sister said the royal will clash with her staff
MEGHAN Markle’s half-sister Samantha has said she thinks the duchess will “butt heads” with nannies.
The Duchess of Sussex, 37, is due to give birth any day now and Samantha has speculated that her “strong-willed” sister may have clear opinions about how to raise her child.

In Quest Red's upcoming documentary Meghan and Harry: A Royal Baby Story, Samantha, who shares dad Thomas Markle with the Duchess of Sussex, said Meghan may have multiple nannies.
Samantha, 54, who lives in Florida, said: “I think Meg will definitely get a nanny.
“I’m pretty sure that her threshold for stress could be quite low in the beginning. How many rooms in Frogmore? I can see them all being filled up with nannies.
“Meghan is very strong-minded and there will probably definitely be a butting of heads. But Meghan could learn and grow from that.

“So if the nanny is strong enough, then she won’t leave in tears.”
Samantha also said she thinks Meghan should take parenting advice from her sister-in-law Kate Middleton.
She said on the show, which airs tonight: “I would hope that Meghan would take some pointers from Kate who is quite experienced now.
“She can probably guide her in ways, how to help shelter the kids, while at the same time educating them and giving them a realistic sense on who they are in this busy world.”

Kate and William hired highly-trained Norland nanny Maria Borrallo for Prince George when he was seven months old.
Royal correspondent Emily Andrews also feels Meghan will get childcare help after she gives birth.
Emily said on the show: “I think Meghan and Harry will want help with Baby Sussex, because obviously Harry’s mum isn’t here very sadly and Doria lives in Los Angeles.
“I’m sure she’ll be coming over lots to help but she’s not exactly on the doorstep.
“I think like any mum, you get this baby and think ‘wow am I going to do with it now?’
“I think she will be a hands on parents but I think she will be more than happy to have all of these resources that available for new mums.
“Because after all, she is very lucky because her and Harry can pay for it.”
