Renowned Royal commentator Richard Fitz Williams has expressed his reservations about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's endeavor to establish an American royal family.
Fitz Williams cast doubt on the couple's decision to continue capitalizing on their Royal connections, especially in light of recent distressing news from the palace regarding King Charles and Princess Katherine's cancer diagnosis.
Just hours before Prince William and Prince Harry were scheduled to deliver speeches at the Diana Legacy Awards, Meghan unveiled a new project, the American Riviera Orchard, along with a dedicated Instagram page. However, the emotional video statement released by Princess Diana, wherein she revealed her cancer diagnosis and treatment, might compel the Sussexes to reassess their strategy, fearing a further decline in their popularity.
Fitz Williams cautioned the couple to exercise caution in their next moves, stating to The Sun that he couldn't envision any future monetization of their royal connections. He also speculated that Harry would be deeply affected by his father's cancer treatment and Catherine's situation, emphasizing that their popularity is waning on both sides of the Atlantic.
The announcement of King Charles and Princess Katherine's cancer diagnosis seems to have put a pause on the Sussexes' efforts to promote their American royal family rebrand. Meghan, formerly known as a Z-list TV actress, appears to have transformed herself into an entrepreneur. Reports suggest that Meghan's brand has filed trademark applications for a range of products, including jams, marmalades, makeup, skincare, haircare, fragrance, pet food, yoga mats, and cushions.
Meghan's venture into website management is not new; she previously curated the lifestyle blog, The Tig, before her marriage to Prince Harry. In a column for M Online, Jan Mo has commented on Meghan's transition from a modest celebrity to a sophisticated business owner, highlighting her journey from The Tig to the present.
Mo emphasized how Meghan successfully elevated her online profile to become a globally recognized figure, even earning the attention of media mogul Oprah Winfrey. Mo acknowledged Meghan's transformation over the past three years, from her first date with Prince Harry to departing Frogmore Cottage, suggesting that her motives for marrying Harry were not solely to exit the royal family or exploit her royal title for commercial gain.
