Has Britain Made Meghan Markle Unwelcome?

how fast things have soured it was a fairy tale beginning for Megan Markle when she married the man of her dreams became a princess back in 2018 on a glorious day but since then we've had megit Rift with the royal family and of course all those legal battles against the press and now Prince Harry is due to return to the UK next week Megan will not be coming with him in fact she last set foot in the UK over 18 months ago for the Queen's funeral so whose fault is it that Megan is not coming to Britain well the former Royal editor of the sun Duncan lham he says it's all her fault she's made herself unwelcome she's reaping what she sowed but broadcastter atad jeel thinks that the tblo press to blame that old that old S I mean she she did invite a great deal of appr probium by doing that interview with Oprah didn't she before Oprah she has been absolutely Savaged in this country I am you know I completely support her my heart's a little bit broken it could have been the new era for the royal family having someone who looks like my mixed Heritage children but she has been completely Savage for nothing what is her crime has she been parting with her convicted pedophiles what I mean what has she actually done apart from being a little bit ungrateful which I think is her real crime so you don't blame her for not coming do you think it's a conscious Choice she does not want to come to Britain because she feels she'd be torn apart again by the Tabloid press this is someone who has said that she has been suicidal she reached out for help she was not helped it is about protecting her mental health we've all been there having to go to family function or you're in-laws and you don't fancy it and I say run Duncan Lam yes you used to be royal editor of the sun yeah is the tabloids would have done it utter nonsense I'm afraid yeah when when Megan turned up on the scene it was a breath of fresh air it was the marle sparkle the way it was reported was entirely positive Harry at the time I remember it and Harry was one of the most popular members of the Roy family second only to his grandmother and now Within within 3 years effectively in those opinion polls they're second in the bottom only above prince Andrew is that a right to say that the abuse of of Megan in the papers began before the oah interview what what abuse what abuse I think she's often described as descendant of a slave I've never heard anyone describe when when would she describe that in in what newspaper there there wasn't a newspaper that did it and Harry and Megan have made that narrative that they were treated badly by the press and they were not but it's in black and white it's there the way she's been treated the way she was you know she's from Compton from straight from the all of this nonsense she's a really well-educated ivy league independent financially independent successful person who was doing a lot of Charity and purposeful thing she's very independent she's broken off from her entire family and now Harry's broken his entire family genuinely truthfully if Megan came with Prince Harry how do you honestly think the tab IDs would treat her right now well it depends what she said and what she did I think you know but you don't seem to be say you you have already condemned her you've said that actually she deserved what she got she was treated badly because of what she did you your colleagues in the tabloids are not going to be fair towards her or even encouraging and welcoming are they well I just don't think that the news works like that we can't confuse and this is what's been a problem all along is a confused columnists writing their opinions to create debate in newspapers but also social media comments from readers yes she's had horrific abuse on those platforms and and I've you know I've defended her for that but to say that newspapers particularly the British press have just decided with this woman we're going to make her a public hate F figure it's not true well what do you think then uh I mean what we can agree on is that she's not popular in this country out there if we did a poll on it now it wouldn't be favorable what's she done wrong well I think if you had to be her PR advisor and for her and Harry and you said right you you you've you've had a good start here let's see if we can make you as unpopular as possible I don't know more that they could do to advise them the way that they went off to America the way that they during covid when people were struggling managed to cash in on the family silver over $ hundred million we're told through deals then a then a book spare the Oprah Winfrey where they accusing the RWS for being being racist I mean I I don't need to reel off a whole list of things it probably EAS to say because there is no list she's done nothing wrong they had to do that because they had to pay for security and wouldn't you do that to defend your family cut off ATT if you attack your family victims so victims or people with toxic families can't speak out what you're saying so never complain never explain that kind of we all know about mental health about talking about this issues and discussing it so are we going back to that old Trope ridiculous at all do you think that they genuinely thought that what was written in spare and what was said in the Oprah interview would not lead to the kind of breakup in the family that it did I think you know coming from someone who has had toxic family and and issues I think it's right to talk about these things this is how we move on as Society they were estrange for a lot of reasons I think they took themselves they removed themselves from their mental health and this is how we move forward by having discussions I take Duncan thank you very much indeed
