It has been suggested that after Meghan Markle's Women of Vision award failed to garner attention, they strategically tried to bring the car chase incident into the spotlight.
Noted royal commentator, Maureen Callahan, shared her perspective on Meghan Markle's actions. She criticized Meghan for delivering a speech filled with what she deemed as clichéd statements like "be the visionary of your own life" and "change is just one action away."
Callahan expressed her belief that Meghan's award did not succeed in generating significant media coverage.
However, when the intense media attention on the car chase incident is compared to the subdued response to Meghan's award, it becomes evident that the former stirred immediate global interest. The incident led to comparisons with Princess Diana, capturing public attention. Callahan reluctantly admitted that Harry and Meghan's actions were predictable in this regard.
Despite facing public backlash for their alleged exploitation of the situation, especially after losing favor with their previously supportive audience, it appears that the couple may be considering a new direction. Callahan hinted at the need for Harry and Meghan to pivot in their approach.
In her closing remarks, Callahan highlighted the discrepancy in media headlines between the Women of Vision award and the subsequent car chase incident.
She remarked that while Harry and Meghan were once members of the royal family, in America, the importance lies in captivating content. She concluded that the couple seems determined to focus on one specific story—possibly to sell it for their own benefit.
