Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Face Challenges Amid Shifting Public Opinion and Royal Family Rift

Since their move to the US, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have made efforts to protect their privacy by carefully selecting public appearances and controlling the information they share in their media projects.

However, it seems that their desire for privacy may become increasingly difficult to maintain as public opinion towards them changes and their relationship with the King and the Prince of Wales deteriorates.

The deep rift within the royal family has garnered significant international attention, according to royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams speaking to Marie Claire on March 6th.

Until now, the Sussexes have been able to shape the narrative through interviews, such as the highly-publicized conversation with Oprah, the Netflix docuseries, and the release of Meghan's book “Spare” along with accompanying interviews.

However, Fitzwilliams suggests that the situation is rapidly changing, particularly due to the uncertainty surrounding their future plans and their reliance on their royal status for lucrative contracts.

Recent polls conducted by Newsweek indicate a seismic shift in public opinion within the US following the release of “Spare.”

The couple has faced ridicule, including being parodied on South Park, and has been taken less seriously since Harry's revelations in his memoir regarding personal matters such as losing his virginity, penile frostbite, and experiments with drugs.

A complete reconciliation currently seems unlikely, but Fitzwilliams does not rule out the possibility of the Sussexes attending the coronation.

It has been confirmed that they were officially invited.

However, they should not expect an apology from the royal family for what they believe they endured during their time as senior working royals.

If they do attend the coronation, any interactions with other royals will likely be limited to superficial topics such as the weather.

Regardless of their decision, they can expect intense media attention leading up to the event, although their behavior during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations demonstrated that they can be controlled in such situations.

One of the most significant recent developments in the royal family has been King Charles' decision to evict Prince Harry and Meghan from their Windsor home, Frogmore Cottage.

Fitzwilliams believes that this eviction sends a clear message about the royal family's disapproval of their actions.

Reports suggest that Charles made this decision shortly after the release of Harry's controversial memoir.

This unexpected move is part of a broader restructuring of royal properties.

The fact that Prince Andrew will be taking over Frogmore Cottage has also drawn criticism from commentators.

Royal expert and historian Dr. Tessa Dunlop previously commented on the eviction, stating that a confident monarchy would have weathered the storm, but Charles' decision contradicts the consultative style of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
