Meghan Markle Should Take a Leaf Out of Camilla’s Book, Says Royal Expert
In an intriguing turn of events, a royal commentator has drawn a parallel between Meghan Markle and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, suggesting that the former could learn a thing or two from the latter about handling public scrutiny.
Angela Levin, a renowned royal expert and biographer, pointed out that Meghan Markle has displayed a difficulty in working as part of a team, contrasting her with Camilla's unwavering support for Prince Charles.
Levin commended Camilla for her approach to the Covid-19 pandemic, where she engaged with people through Zoom, allowing the public to witness a side of her they had never seen before.
What struck Levin even more was Camilla's resilience in the face of relentless criticism.
Even during the period when she was most disliked, prior to her marriage to Prince Charles, Camilla never complained or sought to win people over.
Instead, she quietly lived her life, confident that given enough time, people would come to see her true character.
When asked if Meghan Markle should have followed Camilla's example, Levin responded that the Duchess of Sussex constantly feels the need to prove herself.
Unlike Camilla, who prefers to support from the sidelines, Meghan craves the spotlight and wants to be at the forefront of everything.
This fundamental difference in their approaches is what sets them apart.
Levin's comments coincided with the Queen's platinum jubilee celebration, marking her 70-year reign, during which she confirmed Camilla's future role as Queen Consort when Prince Charles ascends the throne.
The Queen expressed her wish that Camilla be known by this title, highlighting her hard work and justifying her suitability for the position.
Clarence House, the official residence of Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, released a statement on behalf of the couple, expressing their gratitude and honor at the Queen's announcement.
Camilla has undoubtedly garnered immense support from the public, with many forgiving her for past transgressions.
In light of this, a PR expert suggested that Meghan Markle could adopt similar tactics to improve her own public image.
Interestingly, the Queen's intervention regarding Camilla's future title seems to have had an impact on public opinion.
Previously, a YouGov poll indicated that only 14% of respondents believed Camilla should be known as Queen Consort, while 41% favored the title of Princess Consort.
However, following the Queen's announcement, there appears to be a shift in sentiment, suggesting that her endorsement holds significant sway.
It is worth noting that Camilla's journey within the royal family has not been without its challenges.
Initially, she faced considerable backlash, particularly at the start of her relationship with Prince Charles.
Nonetheless, since joining the royal fold in 2005, after her marriage to Prince Charles, Camilla has managed to emerge from the shadows and gain acceptance among the public.
In conclusion, Meghan Markle would do well to heed the lessons of Camilla's approach to public life.
By embracing a more supportive role and allowing time for people to form their own opinions, Meghan may find herself on a path towards a more favorable public image.
As the Queen's platinum jubilee celebrations continue, all eyes will be on Camilla, who has proven that resilience and patience can ultimately lead to acceptance and respect.
