Wow this really is turning into a soap opera.
So much of this situation is down to H&M I’m astonished they are being blindly defended by their fans. You don’t just whip up a fancy website detailing all your policies as “non senior royals” overnight. That takes weeks/months to create and I hardly imagine Harry spent much time over the Xmas break hunched over his laptop typing up their press policy.
They left the baby in Canada, fly back to the UK make an ostentatious show of going to Canada House to thank Canada for their hospitality as if they were back to the UK for good, before pressing the nuclear button on their Instagram then being astonished that the world isn’t lapping up their new plans before MM quickly makes a swift exit back to Canada...because baby....leaving PH to deal with the nuclear fallout...classy!
Meghan clearly feels she has a voice she needs to share with the world she would never have had a lifestyle blog in the first place if she didn’t. Coming into the Royal Family she stated she wanted to continue to use her voice, she admirably got stuck into royal life and the charity work that entails but seems to have continued pushing on with sharing her/their voice with little acknowledgment that no one wants the royal family lecturing them on life (climate change, flying, number of babies to have), we also don’t want to hear that they are “surviving not thriving” when there are people visiting food banks who can’t scrape together a couple of quid to feed the electric meter. It all seems to have come as a massive surprise to them that they aren’t blindly loved and adored and that they have their critics.
The fact they want to renounce the bits of royal life they don’t like but retain the bits they do and continue ploughing ahead with their “foundation” (let’s see what happens there in due course), suggests Meghan still wants her voice to be heard but in a way the Royal Family wouldn’t let her. They could easily disappear off the radar, the last 6 weeks showed them that, but judging by their new website and “insta press release” they have absolutely no intention of relinquishing their fame and status whatsoever.
