So, Megan was out and about while her husband Prince Harry was away in Singapore playing polo. Insiders who spoke with New Ideas say the distance between them was not enough to soothe rumored ongoing tensions between the couple. And we're hearing that the latest pressure point is the impending anniversary of the Queen's passing on September 8th.
Media in the UK is reporting that Harry hasn't been invited to a family-only memorial at Balmoral Castle, where her late Majesty passed away one year ago at the age of 96. The source claims that was more than enough for Harry to urgently take stock of the feud with his father King Charles and his brother Prince William.
He was always close with the Queen, and he's genuinely distressed at not being invited, claims the source, who also says that Harry reached out to the King and begged to be involved in some way. And going by Harry's smile in Singapore, it seems like Charles may have changed his mind about Harry coming, but not his daughter-in-law.
See, nobody wants to be just another flashpoint in Megan's next Hollywood interview, so Charles is gonna have to put his foot down over Harry coming with Megan, says the source. Their children are welcome at any time, but if Harry is really serious about reconciliation, he has got to earn everybody's trust back.
Meanwhile, back in Montecito, it's pretty obvious that Meghan Markle isn't very happy. She was seen out and about wearing a new Calm patch on her wrist, which is used to treat stress, anxiety, and sleeplessness. She was also photographed sharing ladies' lunches while Harry was away. Meg was no doubt having a good old whine about her in-laws to her girlfriend, speculates a source.
Let's see, Meghan never came to understand the basic fact that while royalty have employees, the role of the monarchy is to serve the people. She also experienced many difficulties in understanding that the monarchy doesn't get paid for personal appearances and they also are not allowed to claim expenses for these events.
She also could not appreciate that she was no longer Meghan Markle, a TV actress; instead, she was just one small part of a much larger, permanent show. Her behavior would reflect on how that show is viewed. And she also couldn't accept the fact that there were going to be things that, as a member of the royal family, she wasn't allowed to do anymore.
Megan needed to accept the fact that she's not a royal princess, and she never will be. She was incredibly rude to royal staff. She didn't like her singing to people above her. She is also incredibly jealous of other members of the family, especially Princess Catherine, the future Queen.
Megan thought that with a snap of her finger, she would get to meet A-listers, and that's never going to happen. Meghan Markle was a bit-part actress for a little while, and she was a yacht girl for quite a long time. It's not a very impressive background, I gotta say.
Megan also wasn't comfortable with the fact that, as a member of the royal family, she was not supposed to be expressing her political opinions. See, the royals are apolitical, especially in public. And it's not like she could do very much in impromptu events either. Her schedule would be heavily planned. She also would have been expected to stay away from people who may reflect badly on the family. I mean, one Jeffrey Epstein friendship was way too many.
She also had to be careful that she didn't seem to be wasteful or irresponsible. She couldn't be seen by the public as bringing the family into disrepute by things that she would say or her behavior or who she chose to associate with. As a working member of the family, Megan was expected to perform the duties the public expected her to do.
Now, the monarchy holds onto many traditions that may seem weird in the 21st century, but still, these traditions are incredibly important. They make up the foundation of the monarchy. Meghan Markle could not live up to even one of the expectations of a working royal, and maybe this is why she claimed that she wanted to modernize the royal family, as if it were really her right to do that.
I mean, Meghan Markle is so smug, and the irony was that she was an actress. She understands what it means to be cast in a play or in a movie. She understands a supporting role. She understands how to deal with the media, how to dress appropriately, how to keep her mouth shut and promote the show, like 'Suits.' But as a working royal, she couldn't adapt.
For example, an actor is not allowed to criticize the director or the show in an interview. I think the Queen assumed that she would understand how to adapt and she would be able to adjust to her.
I mean, it's hard for people to take her seriously when they witness her clapping with such obvious insincerity. It's not just visible; you can even hear that it's a complete charade. Meghan Markle always seems to strive to divert attention from the truth. Her sudden eruption of fake applause was incredibly unbelievable; it could have been a performance in an entirely different language, for all we know.
But credit where it's due, she was really trying her best to make us believe that her ovation was truly exceptional, and she aimed to be the loudest one in the entire venue. She certainly made it clear how fabulous it was to not only see her but also to hear her.
Let's talk about Meghan's appearance at the Invictus Games. It marked her first official engagement alongside Prince Harry. She was photographed during the opening ceremony of this competition for wounded veterans in Toronto, way back in 2017. Her presence at the Invictus Games followed extensive speculation that the couple, who had been dating for about a year, would make their inaugural public appearance together at an official event during these games, which Harry had a significant role in creating back in 2014. The rest, as they say, is history.
Now, when it comes to titles, let's clarify. Technically, there is no such person as "Princess Catherine," just as there was no "Princess Meghan." The correct title for the first lady is Catherine, the Princess of Wales, and for the second, we can refer to her as Princess Henry. However, calling her "Princess Meghan" isn't accurate, just as it wasn't for her late mother-in-law, who wasn't actually "Princess Diana." She was Diana, Princess of Wales, during her marriage to Prince Charles, and after their divorce, she became Diana, Princess of Wales. The key distinction is the absence of the definite article "the."
In my view, Meghan never had any intention of remaining within the royal family unless she could have things entirely her way and take charge. It seems she might have believed, for some reason, that Harry and William had equal status, and she could easily push William aside, positioning Harry closer to the throne. She must have been quite surprised when she discovered the reality.
