It seems we’re in for another classic Meghan Markle move. Get ready for the inevitable parking lot paparazzi walk aimed at upstaging Princess Beatrice’s baby news. If there’s one thing more predictable than Meghan inserting herself into someone else’s moment, it’s her knack for grabbing the spotlight, whether people are interested or not.
Recently, Buckingham Palace announced that Princess Beatrice is expecting a second child with her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. The couple, who already have a three-year-old daughter named Sienna, is preparing to welcome their new bundle of joy in early spring. Naturally, both families are thrilled, with His Majesty the King reportedly overjoyed at the news.
While Beatrice and Edoardo’s baby news is the epitome of family joy, you can bet that Meghan is sitting in Montecito plotting her next big move. How do we know this? Because this isn’t Meghan’s first rodeo when it comes to stealing the limelight. Who could forget the stunt she pulled during Princess Eugenie’s wedding when she announced her first pregnancy right when the spotlight was supposed to be on the bride?
So what will she do this time? Speculation is already swirling. Will she conveniently take a stroll through a parking lot, coincidentally caught by the paparazzi, perhaps sporting a mysterious baby bump? Maybe she’ll be seen carrying a shopping bag from an upscale baby boutique, sending the rumor mill into overdrive about a potential third baby on the way. Or better yet, she could stage a philanthropic event focused on mothers and children, ensuring that the press captures those perfect caring shots just in time to overshadow Beatrice’s joyous announcement.
Princess Beatrice’s news, much like her understated and elegant wedding, reflects class, family unity, and respect for tradition. Let’s not forget that Beatrice, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, kept her wedding small, intimate, and focused on family. She wore a beautiful Norman Hartnell gown that belonged to the Queen, a touching tribute to her grandmother, and the happiness on the faces of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip was undeniable. It was a ceremony rooted in love and togetherness, not spectacle and showmanship.
Now contrast that with Meghan and Harry’s £30 million wedding, which felt more like a Hollywood production than a royal family celebration. While Beatrice’s wedding was a reminder of royal grace, Meghan’s was all about her—complete with the glaring spotlight, family drama, and tension with her in-laws. It was clear that day wasn’t about joining two families; it was about Meghan’s grand debut on the world stage.
Let’s also consider how Princess Beatrice’s stepson, Wolfie, has been lovingly embraced by the royal family. He is biracial, yet there has never been any question of his place within the family. The royal family has welcomed him with open arms, shattering Meghan’s narrative that they are unwelcoming or cold toward those who don’t fit the mold. This serves as yet another example of how out of touch Meghan’s victim narrative truly is.
As Beatrice finally celebrates this new chapter, you can almost bet that Meghan will soon reappear, back arching and belly sticking, trying to capture headlines once again. Perhaps we’ll see another carefully staged paparazzi walk, or maybe an interview where she hints at motherhood struggles or drops vague hints about her plans for more children. Whatever it is, it’s bound to be an effort to divert attention from Beatrice’s joy.
While Princess Beatrice and Edoardo are celebrating their growing family with dignity and grace, Meghan’s increasingly desperate attempts to stay relevant only serve to highlight the stark contrast between her and the rest of the royal family.
