The royal family finds itself in a precarious situation as King Charles and Catherine, the Princess of Wales, are currently ill.
However, according to royal expert Daniela Elser, this predicament could have been avoided if the palace hadn’t made a mess of things.
Elser suggests that the palace made a grave error by allowing Harry and Meghan to leave in 2020, as they could have easily stepped in and taken on the responsibilities that are now left unfulfilled.
Elser’s claim has raised eyebrows and begs the question: has she lost her mind?
While it is true that there are currently few working royals available due to the illness of key members, it does not necessarily mean that Harry and Meghan are the solution.
It is better to have no one than to rely on individuals who have shown a willingness to undermine the monarchy.
In this situation, Queen Camilla will have to step up and take on more duties, despite Elser’s belief that she is more interested in other pursuits.
Camilla may not seem enthusiastic about royal duties, but she has worked hard to overcome a tarnished reputation.
It would be unfair to criticize her during this challenging time.
Elser takes us back to 2019 and 2020, before the revelation of “Megxit,” and highlights the signs that Harry and Meghan were not content in their roles.
However, these signs did not garner sympathy; instead, they portrayed them as whiny individuals who were unsuitable for their positions.
In 2019, cracks began to appear in Harry and Meghan’s relationship with the royal family.
Harry filed lawsuits against media outlets, alleging phone hacking and invasion of privacy.
Additionally, the couple announced their intention to take a six-week break from royal duties.
Elser argues that the palace should have intervened at this point, recognizing that the couple’s discontent could have been averted with a strategic plan.
Harry and Meghan possessed the ability to connect with younger audiences and those in the Commonwealth, making them valuable assets to the monarchy.
To be fair, Harry and Meghan did initially appear to be important to the royal family.
Their appeal extended beyond traditional royal fans, attracting millennials and Gen Z. Meghan’s biracial heritage seemed to resonate with members of the Commonwealth.
However, their potential was short-lived as their relationship with the palace deteriorated.
It is unfair to place blame solely on the palace for their departure.
Harry and Meghan’s demands, such as being half-in and half-out of royal duties while retaining the benefits, were unrealistic.
The palace did propose a plan to send them to live in South Africa, which they reportedly agreed to.
However, the media leaked this information, causing controversy.
Ultimately, Harry and Meghan chose to leave, driven by their desire for freedom and financial independence.
Despite the current absence of key members, the monarchy is not on the brink of collapse.
This is a temporary situation that will last a few weeks, and January and February are typically quiet months for the working royals anyway.
While the absence may result in less positive publicity, the working royals contribute significantly to the country through their charitable work and advocacy.
Elser suggests that Harry and Meghan’s departure has left the royal family severely understaffed.
However, it is important to note that the couple had already planned their exit long before the palace’s alleged mishandling.
Their intention to use their royal connections for personal gain was evident even before “Megxit” was announced.
In conclusion, the claim that Harry and Meghan could have been of great help to the royal family if the palace hadn’t failed them is unfounded.
The palace cannot be held responsible for their choices and ambitions.
The monarchy will navigate this challenging period, and the support of citizens will not waver.
