Hlook into these TV rights. A new book airing the Royal Family’s dirty laundry, penned by bestsellin­g author tells of failed efforts to drive a wedge between

and And the MacBeth-ian plot nearly worked.

In “Game of Crowns,” Andersen claims that Bowles was “disgusted with William and Kate sucking up all the attention” at a time when she was working hard to woo a British public that blamed her for the beloved Diana’s death.

Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, allegedly urged to convince his son, Prince William, to break it off with Middleton when the Prince started expressing doubts about settling down

– who’s 31 years her junior – is being staged for TV. “The rumor is that Ramona is paying Justin Estill to hang out with her and this is not true,” says our snitch, assuring us they have no interest in Singer one way or the other. “But she does wine him and dine him. She also bought him a nice watch. And why not? She’s a wealthy lady.” Charles, over whom Camilla wields enormous influence, did just that and William ended it with Kate in 2007. But the move turned out to be a misstep on Camilla’s part. The tabloids were soon filled with pictures of Kate dirty dancing in the clubs.

No wonder Princess Diana allegedly referred to Bowles as “The Rottweiler.”

Reps for the royal family could not be reached for comment.
