Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Controversial Relationship with the Royal Family

The Royal Family has significantly enhanced the global presence of the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle. Meghan has remained a prominent figure in the media ever since her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018. Their union, which began when they met in 2016 and culminated in a wedding at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle two years later, captivated worldwide attention. However, after an 18-month period as working royals, Harry and Meghan chose to step down from their royal duties in January 2020 and relocated to the United States.

Since then, Meghan, now 32 years old, has embarked on various ventures, including running a lifestyle brand called American Riviera Orchard and finding success as a podcaster. According to experts, the royal family has played a role in "elevating" Meghan's brand to a global scale.

In collaboration with Harry, Meghan has ventured into content production for major streaming platforms such as Netflix, Spotify, and Lemonada Media. Body language analyst Darren Stanton noted the significance of Meghan's journey, drawing parallels between her and Princess Diana. Stanton remarked, "When Meghan was first introduced to the Royal Family, it elevated her status globally. She embodies a similar strength to Princess Diana, having followed her heart and convictions, even if it meant stepping away from royal duties."

Stanton highlighted Meghan's dedication to causes she cares about, emphasizing her desire to follow in Princess Diana's footsteps. Prior to her royal marriage, Meghan ran a lifestyle blog called The Tig and pursued acting in the legal drama Suits.

However, amidst their ventures, some royal experts and authors have criticized Harry and Meghan for their allegations and claims about certain senior members of the Royal Family, accusing them of betraying their royal connections.
