According to sources, Meghan Markle felt she had more of a right to speak than Kate Middleton because she was a self-made woman. This attitude reportedly made her uncomfortable playing second fiddle. Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, allegedly felt uneasy with Prince William and Princess Kate being the superior Royals when she joined the family. This was especially noticeable during a Royal Foundation Forum, where tension between the "Fab Four" was palpable.
Meghan, who married Prince Harry, saw herself as a self-made woman, unlike Kate, who hadn’t really had her own career. The audacity! Meghan believed she had more of a right to speak than Kate, who married into the family as an unknown. Meghan regarded herself as a philanthropist who could teach the Royals about charity, seemingly overlooking that she too married into the family for the clout and attention.
Omid Scobie, in his book, previously claimed that Kate failed to build a meaningful relationship with Meghan. It was also reported that Meghan received a lukewarm reception from William and Kate when her relationship with Harry turned serious, a sentiment Harry echoed in his book "Spare."
Harry and Meghan are facing more backlash as they maintain their silence on the Royal racism claims from "Endgame." The couple has yet to speak about the book or disavow their friend Omid Scobie, which could have serious consequences. William is believed to want action after Kate was named alongside Charles as the two Royals who expressed concern about Archie’s skin color. Meanwhile, an MP has revealed plans to introduce a bill calling on Parliament to strip Harry and Meghan of their titles.
Let's focus on Meghan’s claim of being self-made. Despite her assertion, her father, Thomas Markle, a multi-award-winning lighting and photography director, paid for her upbringing. Her first husband, Trevor Engelson, supported her financially and used his industry contacts to help her get the role on "Suits." Following their divorce, she received a decent settlement. In the last six years, she has lived off Harry’s inheritance and financial support from her father-in-law for their lavish wedding, which only had one family member in attendance. Is she truly self-made? Hollywood elites seem to entertain this notion, but it’s quite laughable.
In other news related to "Endgame," Meghan and Harry are urged to distance themselves from Omid Scobie to avoid further damage. Meghan’s new Hollywood handlers are reportedly horrified and exasperated by the couple’s plummeting popularity, driven by the ongoing palace race row and "Endgame’s" attacks on Princess Kate. An exclusive UK Sunday Express opinion poll shows that 78% of British people view Kate Middleton as a better role model than Meghan Markle.
Former BBC correspondent Michael Cole suggests that Harry must act to clear the air, potentially issuing a statement clarifying that he doesn’t accuse his relatives of racism. King Charles is reportedly considering all options, including legal action, after being named in the Dutch edition of "Endgame."
Omid Scobie claims neither Harry nor Meghan briefed him on the content of "Endgame," though he admits to speaking with people in their orbit. This places Harry and Meghan in a tricky spot. They need to distance themselves from Scobie and disavow the book to avoid further fallout.
