It’s no secret that Meghan Markle has a longstanding beef with the royal family. We all saw how she blasted the British monarchy in a sit-down interview with Oprah Winfrey. Now, she’s back on the battlefield and clashing with none other than King Charles III. Her podcast is set to launch just as the King and Queen Camilla prepare for an important trip to Italy. Is it a mere coincidence? Read on to find out.
Meghan Markle: The Podcast Launch Clashes With Royal Trip!
Meghan Markle is debuting with Confessions of a Female Founder in the podcast space. It aims to offer “honest talks” with women doing wonders in the business world. Additionally, in collaboration with Lemonada Media, the project will have eight episodes starting April 8.
Now, back to the big question: Is the overlapping schedule coincidental? Well, it seems unlikely if we look at previous scheduling issues between the Sussexes and the royals. Earlier, Buckingham Palace announced that Charles and Camilla will be in Rome and Ravenna from April 7 to April 10.
Their timetable is packed with important events, including visits to the Vatican and a meeting with Pope Francis. Moreover, the senior royal couple will celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary on April 9. And let us tell you that the Reigning Monarch is about to make history in the coming weeks.
He’ll become the first British King to visit The Papal Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls since the reformation. Meanwhile, this isn’t the first time Meghan and Harry’s projects have clashed with major royal events. The Sussexes dropped the trailer of their documentary right when the Wales royals arrived in Boston in 2022.
Is Meghan Trying to Steal the Spotlight?
Prince William and Princess Kate were there to felicitate the Earthshot Prize. In addition, Meghan shared some personal pictures just as Camilla delivered an important speech on domestic violence in 2019. The act invited controversy, but it was nothing new for Markle at that point.
Now, the Suits fame is enjoying the spotlight regarding her future ventures. She described her new podcast as “eye-opening, inspiring, and fun!” At the same time, King Charles and his wife will meet Italian President Sergio Mattarella and Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. He will also tribute Italy’s literary heritage by visiting Dante’s tomb.
