Meghan Markle is reportedly anxious about an upcoming documentary about her life, which she fears may be critical.
According to royal expert Tom Quinn, the documentary, produced by German commentator Orgunal, will delve into the former Suits star's past and her relationship with Prince Harry. Although Meghan has no direct involvement with the show set to air on Germany's ZDF Network, she is increasingly concerned about the potential revelations it might contain.
Tom Quinn informed the Mirror that Meghan Markle is likely worried about what might emerge from this new documentary. "Meghan's in panic mode about the new documentary being made by a German journalist," Quinn explained. "She'll assume that unless she's invited to take part and, better still, has a final say over what's included in the program, it's likely to be critical. Meghan can't adopt the old royal motto of 'never explain, never complain.' Her obsession with 'my truth' means that she just can't do this. However, if she reacts to any criticism in the program—and there's definitely going to be some criticism—it would just draw more fire."
Quinn also claimed that Meghan is a "massive control freak" and would see any criticism as unfair. He added, "Having a hissy fit every time she's criticized makes Meghan seem petulant and immature. Meghan and Harry have tried to take ownership of how they're presented in the media, and despite their best efforts, their public image is still at an all-time low."
One of Harry's most profound complaints has always been his inability to control what was said and written about him. When he met Meghan, he believed that she could manage the media in a way he never could. "She had the determination to take critics by the scruff of the neck and give them a good shake," Quinn continued. "Meghan's confidence in her own abilities has always been reassuring for Harry, a boy with no real confidence of his own."
Quinn believes the couple will be most worried about how their charitable efforts and penchant for a luxury lifestyle since relocating to Montecito, California, will be criticized in the documentary. He also noted that the couple's recent private trip to Nigeria, where they promoted the Invictus Games, could come under scrutiny. Even more worrying for Meghan and Harry is the certainty that they will be criticized for Harry's insistence that the UK is too dangerous to visit with his wife and children unless the UK taxpayer pays for their security. "The documentary makers will be asking how it is that Harry and Meghan can't risk a visit to the UK but were able to visit Nigeria, a country that Meghan's own government in the United States has designated as too dangerous for American citizens," Quinn stated.
Meghan is said to be particularly anxious about what this documentary might uncover. There are concerns about whether it will expose alleged details about her past, including claims about her being a "cool girl." Insiders claim that both she and Prince Harry are concerned about what could be revealed.
A source told OK! Magazine that there are many aspects of their lives, particularly Meghan's, that they prefer to keep private. Although Harry has been open about his mistakes in his book, there are still many unknowns about Meghan. Allegedly, she was a well-known figure in the Hollywood party scene before settling down with Harry. There are people ready to discuss her past, including a failed marriage to Trevor Engelson.
