Prince Harry Criticised for Not Guiding Meghan Through Royal Life
Life inside the Royal Family isn’t something most people can prepare for, and for outsiders like Meghan Markle, the adjustment was especially tough.
The article highlights a key criticism: that Prince Harry didn’t do enough to guide Meghan through the unique traditions, rules, and expectations of royal life. This stands in contrast to how King Charles supported Camilla when she faced harsh media scrutiny in the past. Despite the negative press Camilla received, Charles stood by her and helped her adapt to life as a royal.
According to royal author Tina Brown, Harry chose not to help Meghan navigate palace culture—suggesting it wasn’t because he couldn’t, but because “he did not want to.” This statement paints a picture of a couple who, instead of easing into royal duties, were described by aides as having an “addiction to drama,” fueling constant tension with the monarchy.
The article also brings up Meghan’s strained relationship with her father, Thomas Markle. Both the late Queen and King Charles reportedly tried to encourage Meghan to visit him in Mexico to put an end to his public outbursts against the Royal Family. Meghan, however, refused because of their long-standing estrangement. This refusal left the Queen and Charles increasingly frustrated, as Thomas’s public interviews continued to stir controversy.
