Meghan Markle has faced criticism for her approach to Princess Diana's legacy, especially when compared to her sister-in-law Catherine, the Princess of Wales. While Catherine has been praised for continuing the charitable work initiated by the late Princess Diana, Meghan has received scrutiny for her choices, particularly her desire to live a high-profile life in Hollywood.
Commentator Kinsey Scofield drew comparisons between the two, noting that Meghan didn't resemble Princess Diana throughout her life, as she faced backlash for her desire for Hollywood stardom. Meghan appears to have prioritized her life in Hollywood over a life of royal service, even as Prince Harry becomes increasingly involved in charity events.
Scofield mentioned that Prince Harry saw similarities between Meghan and his late mother when discussing their shared compassion for humanity in their Netflix documentary. He spoke of Meghan's compassion, empathy, confidence, and warmth, traits reminiscent of Princess Diana's.
In contrast, Catherine received praise for her commitment to a life of service and her graceful continuation of Princess Diana's legacy. Catherine's Early Years project, which explores how children's home life affects their futures, has continued to grow and provide valuable insights. She and her family have also been open about discussing mental health issues and potential solutions, a path Princess Diana might have commended.
Interestingly, Meghan Markle expressed fury upon learning that Princess Diana had bequeathed her sapphire ring to Prince Harry in her will. According to the National Enquirer, Meghan was upset that the ring had not been given to Kate Middleton years ago. When Prince Harry proposed to Meghan in 2017, he did not anticipate getting married and had given the sapphire ring to Prince William for his proposal to Catherine. However, Meghan received a custom-made ring with Diana's jewelry. She believed that Diana's ring was rightfully Harry's and, by extension, hers.
She reportedly insisted that Prince William should also part with his jewelry. The source claimed that Harry informed Prince William that Meghan deserved a share of his jewelry and other family jewels, as the royal family had discarded them. However, Prince William disagreed, arguing that it was wrong for his mother's precious jewels to be scattered around the world.
Amid these controversies, there are concerns that the tensions within the royal family may escalate, leading to doubts about the longevity of Harry and Meghan's marriage. If they were to divorce, sources suggest that Meghan might sell her jewelry to the highest bidder.
In other news, Meghan Markle has been compared to Kate Middleton in terms of emotional intelligence. According to Express UK, Mr. Quinn remarked that many people he spoke to believed that Kate possessed greater emotional intelligence than Meghan. Kate was seen as someone who understood and respected the boundaries of the royal family, choosing to conform to its established rules. On the other hand, Meghan was characterized as a rebel who sought to challenge and change these rules to suit her own preferences.
Morton's insights, comparisons between Meghan and Catherine, and the ongoing controversies surrounding jewelry and royal boundaries highlight the complex dynamics within the British royal family.
