Meghan posted this kissing photo saying she was ‘missing my Valentine’ after flying home early from the gamesCredit: instagram/@meghanThe pair made numerous appearances at the games – held in Vancouver and Whistler from February 8 – 16 – but some accused Meghan of show-stealing antics.
Prince Harry, 40, and Meghan cosied up to one another showing PDA at the opening ceremony.
Meghan also squealed with fear as she tried tubing down a slope.
Royal author Norman claimed on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show: “It looked kind of like the Meghan show.
“Looks like she was trying to muscle in and make us or a PR event for herself rather than about the athletes.
“She was there making sure she was set to stage more than Harry was, as a matter of fact.”
The former MP also compared Meghan to Yoko Ono – who has previously been accused of being the person to break up the Beatles, after the band split up one year after she married John Lennon.
The Japanese artist and musician was married to Lennon for over ten years from 1969 to 1980, until he was murdered in Manhattan.
Norman stated: “You have to say this a bit like John and Yoko, really, in terms of who’s running things.
“It’s quite a curious relationship.
“I have to say she looks in her element in Hollywood and over there, but whether Harry is another matter.
“He wasn’t centrestage, she was.”
During the opening ceremony, Meghan also took part in an “impromptu” introduction for Harry – in which she gushed over the Prince‘s parenting skills.
Royal reporter Bronte Coy added: “She’s coming across now as a Hollywood influencer, and that seems to be the image she’s wanting to present.”

Despite jetting home to the couple’s Montecito mansion to look after Archie, five, and Lilibet, three, Meghan posted a Valentine’s day kissing shot on her Instagram page to pay tribute to Prince Harry.
The pair spent Valentine’s Day apart, with Harry remaining at the Invictus Games.

The Duchess with Mindy Kaling on the showThe event, established by ex-soldier Harry in 2014, involves a line-up of sporting events for injured military servicemen and women.
After Meghan caught her private jet back home, Harry relaxed over a beer with former New Zealand captain Richie McCaw, 44.
They were spotted in the stands at the wheelchair rugby – as the USA and Australia battled it out for the bronze medal.
In snaps from the game, the solo prince can be seen smiling, chatting and cheers-ing with the retired rugby star – who was twice part of the World Cup winning side for the All Blacks.
MEGHAN Markle’s new Netflix documentary trailer shows her cooking with Hollywood pals.
There will be eight 33 minute episodes featuring a host of Meg’s various Hollywood friends trying her simple, yet “elevated”, food.
A montage of various clips in the nearly two minute video showed Meghan walking through vegetable patches and fields.
She was also filmed browsing through florists hand selecting beautiful flowers for table arrangements, showing off her creative side.
The Duchess even tried her hand at beekeeping, fully suited up, as she collected honey.
In the exciting new trailer, Meghan shared: “I’ve always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it.
“Surprising people with moments that let them know I was really thinking of them.
“I’m going to share some little tips and tricks. I see what colour I gravitate to, and everything goes from there. And how you incorporate these practices every day.
“This is about connecting with friends.. I love that we’re doing this together for the first time. Making new friends.. and just learning.
“We’re not in the pursuit of perfection. We’re in the pursuit of joy. I have to get it totally wrong, to get it totally right.”
The trailer showcased many “candid” moments, from Meghan accidentally squeezing some lemon juice in her eye, to knocking freshly baked goodies off a plate.
Prince Harry featured at the end of the video, embracing his wife in a warm hug.
