Respected royal biographer Tom Bower has recently emerged with shocking revelations regarding Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's recent trip to Africa, a journey supposedly tied to their Netflix deal.
Bower, known for his authoritative biographies on prominent figures such as Boris Johnson and Richard Branson, alleges that Meghan had clandestine motives behind the trip, viewing it as a strategic move against the royal family.
According to Bower, Meghan had been harboring resentment towards the royal family ever since she and Harry stepped back from their royal duties in 2020. Bower claims that Meghan perceived the royal family as a barrier hindering her Hollywood aspirations. With her connections in Tinsel Town stemming from her acting career, she aimed to leverage these relationships to ascend as a significant figure in the entertainment industry. However, the constraints of royal responsibilities and protocols thwarted her ambitions.
Bower contends that Meghan yearned for freedom from these constraints to pursue her own celebrity trajectory. This desire for autonomy led her to explore avenues outside of royal duties. Notably, in September 2020, just months after Megxit, Harry and Meghan secured a lucrative production deal with Netflix, intending to produce content for the streaming giant. Bower alleges that this deal was not a coincidence but rather a culmination of Meghan's covert negotiations predating their official departure from the royal family.
With the Netflix deal in place, Meghan saw an opportunity to wield substantial power and influence in Hollywood as a producer, utilizing her celebrity status and royal connections as leverage. However, launching a direct attack on the royal family from California posed risks of severe public relations backlash. Hence, Meghan devised a more subtle strategy, which is where the Africa trip became instrumental.
According to Bower, the Africa trip was strategically crafted by Meghan to serve as an ideal televised event, allowing her to subtly undermine the royal family while enhancing her celebrity image globally. A film crew accompanied them, and the timing coincided conspicuously with Prince William and Kate's Earthshot Prize event in Boston. One significant stop on the Africa trip was in Dorf Germany, where Harry and Meghan visited an organization aiding people displaced by floods.
However, Bower asserts that this stop was merely performative, engineered by Meghan to lay the groundwork for subtle criticisms against the royal family. During her speech at the event, Meghan made veiled references to the inadequacies of those in positions of privilege and power in assisting the less fortunate, a thinly veiled jab at the royal family's handling of issues like climate change and crisis response in developing nations.
The Africa trip culminated in Johannesburg, where Meghan gave her now-infamous interview with journalist Tom Bradby, expressing her struggles with royal life. Bower alleges that this interview was a meticulously planned smear campaign against the royal family, with Bradby complicit in portraying Meghan as a victim of the institution. The visit to a university in Johannesburg served as another platform for Meghan to lay the groundwork for further criticisms of the royal family, highlighting structural challenges faced by girls worldwide and celebrating her biracial heritage as a symbol of inspiration.
In summary, Bower's allegations paint a picture of Meghan orchestrating the Africa trip with Harry as a calculated endeavor to subtly undermine the royal family through orchestrated public appearances, staged photo ops, and a complicit interview. Meghan's ultimate goal, according to Bower, was to position herself globally as a progressive leader and role model, liberated from the perceived constraints of the antiquated royal institution, all while paving the way for her and Harry's post-royal content deal with Netflix.
