Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s recent interview with Jane Pauley has sparked public speculation about the motives behind dedicating an entire TV segment to the launch of a website. The interview, focused on this website, hardly seems like monumental news.
It’s now clear that the questions asked were sent to the Sussexes beforehand for approval and preparation, casting doubt on Meghan’s claim of surprise over being asked about her mental health struggles.
The decision to revisit these topics raises questions, especially as it highlights Harry’s inaction to help Meghan and the couple’s inconsistencies regarding their account. This move brings attention back to the many discrepancies and exaggerations from their Oprah interview, making the timing of this replay seem peculiar.
Adding to the oddness, Harry appeared uncomfortable during the interview, displaying rapid blinking and a stiff demeanor, and didn’t offer any comforting gestures to Meghan as she discussed these issues. This contrasts sharply with the outpouring of sympathy for Catherine, Princess of Wales, following her surgery and cancer announcement. The public’s warm response, including thousands of cards and well-wishes, stands in stark contrast to the response Meghan Markle has received for her alleged struggles.
The public is now questioning whether Harry and Meghan are frustrated by the lack of a similar response to Meghan’s claims. Was this interview intended to generate sympathy for Meghan, akin to the support Catherine received? The Sussexes have previously shown frustration at not receiving the same level of public approval as William and Catherine and have often compared their treatment to that of the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Given this context, it’s not far-fetched to think the interview might have been an attempt to elicit sympathy.
Harry and Meghan have a history of releasing photos and posts that seem competitive and sometimes petty, even when it backfires. The interview was ostensibly about launching a website for parents who have lost a child, focusing on internet safety and addressing online bullying. However, this focus seems ironic given the couple’s reputation for bullying, both their staff and the media, as evidenced by various controversies.
A significant portion of the interview was devoted to Meghan’s claims from the Oprah interview, which have been disputed and contradicted by the Sussexes themselves. This shift felt out of place and detracted from the supposed purpose of the interview, making it appear as though the couple was seeking sympathy rather than addressing the main focus.
If the aim was to stir up public sympathy for Meghan, it appears to have failed. This failure can partly be attributed to the inconsistencies and exaggerations highlighted by the Oprah footage, and partly to the Sussexes’ ongoing campaign against the royal family and the press, which has painted them as overreactive and entitled.
The couple’s privileged status and their track record of showcasing hypocrisy, collecting undeserved awards, and blaming others for their issues have only diminished their public image. The idea that they could garner sympathy through this interview seems unrealistic given their history.
