Meghan Markle Blames Palace for Lack of Protection at Wimbledon 2019
In a surprising turn of events, Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has revealed shocking details about her experience at Wimbledon 2019, where she accused the palace of failing to protect her from the relentless paparazzi.
This incident occurred during Day 4 of the prestigious tennis tournament when Meghan attended to watch her brother-in-law, Prince William, play in his second-round match.
It was not the first time Meghan had graced Wimbledon as a royal, as she had also attended the previous summer alongside Princess Kate.
The controversy arose when a man was mistakenly accused of taking a photo of Meghan, when in fact, he was merely attempting to capture a selfie.
Despite this misunderstanding, Meghan's security team confronted him, resulting in a humiliating and unjust extension of her authority.
Comparatively, other members of the royal family have not exhibited such behavior in similar situations.
Moreover, Meghan's decision to have the area around her cleared raised eyebrows, as it contrasted with Princess Kate's ability to sit among fellow spectators whenever she attended Wimbledon.
Approximately 40 paying guests lost their seats due to Meghan's surprise visit, potentially disappointing individuals who had waited for years or traveled from overseas to experience the renowned tournament.
There were also rumors that Meghan was not allowed in the royal box because she was wearing jeans, further fueling speculation about preferential treatment within the palace.
Additionally, it was noted that although Meghan watched her close friend Serena Williams play, she did not bother staying to support British tennis star Andy Murray.
In response to these incidents, Meghan accused the palace staff of discriminatory behavior, claiming they failed to silence the media and cover up her alleged misbehavior.
During her interview with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan asserted that if the same situation had occurred with Princess Kate, the palace would have come to her defense.
However, it is worth noting that Kate has never exhibited behavior similar to Meghan's.
Furthermore, Meghan was aware of the royal family's “no-complain, no-explain” policy, which prevented them from refuting her claims.
Consequently, she was able to manipulate public opinion and portray herself as a victim of the royal family, garnering sympathy from the public.
Meanwhile, an expert has weighed in on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's attempts to reconcile with the royal family, suggesting that their efforts may be falling short.
Despite publicly stating that they consider this year as their year of redemption, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not taken concrete actions to support this claim.
Royal expert Phil Dampier expressed skepticism towards their supposed plans for redemption, labeling it as a mere phrase concocted by Hollywood PR professionals that holds little significance in reality.
