LONDON: Meghan Markle has her heart set on becoming "Diana 2.0", according to a new biography of Prince Harry's fiancee that details her lifelong embrace of good causes but also points to a calculating streak. The biography was authored by Andrew Morton, the British royal writer who penned the blockbuster "Diana: Her True Story", with the late princess's covert assistance. Family friends said she was intrigued by Diana "not just for her style but for her independent humanitarian mission, seeing her as a role model". However, he notes the crucial distinction between the timid Diana, who married Charles aged 20, and the 36-year-old Hollywood professional. "In some ways, the groomed and camera-ready Ms Markle was the woman Diana always strove to become," he wrote.
