Meghan Markle’s Charitable Deed Sparks Comparison to Other Royals
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's organization, Archwell, recently shared a heartwarming photograph of the Duchess of Sussex preparing Thanksgiving meals for vulnerable women.
This act of kindness has drawn attention and comparisons to the charitable work carried out by other members of the royal family, such as Queen Camilla and Sophie, Countess of Wessex.
Australian royal commentator Danielle Elser highlighted the contrasting approaches taken by senior royals Camilla and Sophie, who have quietly championed feminist causes.
Their efforts have focused on supporting victims of domestic violence and shedding light on gender-based violence in conflict areas.
In contrast, Archwell's decision to release a picture of Meghan, nearly unrecognizable behind a cap, face masks, and rubber gloves, raises questions about self-promotion.
Elser acknowledged that Meghan has been involved in charity work for many years, even before she met Prince Harry.
However, she noted that much of Meghan's recent charitable endeavors alongside the Duke have been made public.
Elser questioned the motives behind Archwell's post, which mentions the work done by the downtown women's center but fails to encourage donations or community involvement.
It seems that the focus may be more on promoting Archwell than truly supporting the DWC.
In contrast, Elser believes that when Sophie spoke at the international conference for preventing s**ual violence in conflict and when Camilla posed with Queen Rania of Jordan and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark ahead of a roundtable discussion on domestic violence, their actions were driven by a desire to spotlight the important work being done rather than seeking personal publicity.
While Archwell's recent post exudes altruism, it also serves as a means of garnering positive publicity.
Elser points out that this raises questions about the true beneficiaries of such actions.
Is it the charities themselves or the organizations behind them?
Now, let's hear your thoughts.
Do you believe Meghan's charitable efforts are genuine, or do they carry a hint of self-promotion?
