TRENDS: Meghan Markle Faces Backlash Over ‘Risky’ Move—The One Thing Experts Say She Must Do….
EXCLUSIVE: Meghan Markle was warned by an expert over shifting the focus away from her new project and “reigniting” tensions with the Royal Family after her latest “risky” move.
Meghan Markle was criticised after segments of her highly controversial Oprah Winfrey interview in 2021 were shown in her latest sit-down chat with Prince Harry for CBS.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex spoke on CBS’s Sunday Morning show with Jane Pauley and announced their latest project aimed at tackling child safety online and connecting families who have lost their children to suicide due to a lack of safeguarding online, The Parents’ Network (TPN).
During the interview, segments of the Oprah interview were shown to the viewers, while Meghan talked about opening up on her own thoughts of self-harm during her time as a working member of the Royal Family.
But a PR expert labelled the move “risky” as, while it could “reignite interest” in the couple’s new project. She was also concerned for the duchess’s own wellbeing, as it also risks “reopening old wounds” and “rekindling controversy”, so she suggested the duchess try a different approach.
Renae Smith, founder and director of The Atticism, told Express.co.uk that bringing back the original Oprah interview, which is thought to have contributed to the Sussexes’s rift with the royals heavily, would “most likely detract” attention from their current initiative, TPN.
