Meghan Markle continues to find herself at the centre of controversies revolving around her brand, her public decisions or her departure from the royal family. She is also frequently grouped alongside Prince Andrew. However, the comparisons raise questions. This is true even in the case involving the Epstein controversy.
Is Meghan Markle Being Wrongly Grouped In Royal Scandals?
The royal fans are aware that Meghan’s controversies are largely around media interviews, and Prince Andrew’s situations involve his connection to Jeffrey Epstein. The police arrested him for misconduct in public office.
Elsewhere, people have often put Prince Andrew, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in the same category after their exit from the royal family. Whenever a serious scandal occurs, the media often highlights Meghan and Harry’s old issues. Furthermore, a new biography of William and Kate arriving next week, also revisits the history.
The media often transform book excerpts into dramatic headlines, diverting the attention of the royal fans from the main issue. For instance, the recent matter involving Prince Andrew involves serious allegations. This is very different from Meghan and Harry leaving the royal family. Thus, comparing the situations is misleading.
Royal coverage reshapes the public’s sense of scale. Categories begin to blur as the serious allegations related to misconduct feel similar to the simple arguments about who said what. Furthermore, biographies of senior royals create engagement without dealing with the main issues.
Prince Harry Also Mentions The Unfair Treatment In His Book!
Meanwhile, Prince Harry mentioned in Spare that he was treated more harshly than Prince Andrew, who was involved in a scandal and accused of sexually abusing a young woman. Furthermore, the media also drags Meghan Markle into such comparisons. Treating the family drama as a royal scandal distorts reality.
Elsewhere, there were calls that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s children should be removed from the line of succession because of disloyalty. But Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice aren’t discussed in the same way, eventually, though their royal positions are similar in structure. Thus, the discrepancies show that conversations are not purely constitutional.
Thus, leaving, criticising and embarrassing the monarchy isn’t the same as alleged wrongdoings. Therefore, comparing or mixing the situations diverts the seriousness of the misconduct. Meanwhile, share your opinions about it in the comments. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more Royal updates.
