And let's not forget that Meghan was clearly angling to snag a royal. Harry himself admits she was confident and magnetic. Of course, she knew what she was doing—messaging a prince. She curated her IG to catch his eye, showing off her humanitarian work and travels. It wasn't a magical coincidence; she had a plan from the start. What's also amusing is how Harry acts like Meghan was the only woman sliding into his DMs at the time. C'mon, he was the most eligible royal bachelor on the planet. I'm sure plenty of others were trying to shoot their shot too. But Harry tries to make it sound like Meghan only had eyes for him from day one, which is unlikely.
Let's be real here—this was a strategy on Meghan's part from the beginning. And as for Harry constantly gushing about Meghan's beauty and sex appeal, we get it, dude. She's attractive. But fixating on it to the extent he does feels a bit superficial.
Their relationship seems very surface level in that regard. Maybe I'm cynical, but I can't help but roll my eyes at how Harry overly romanticizes their initial interactions. It's giving me "I'm 14 and someone liked my MySpace pic" vibes.
At the end of the day, it was clever networking on Meghan Markle's part, and Harry felt seen. But let's not spin it into some soulmate narrative. Meghan had a game plan from the get-go.
