In a recent documentary, Megan opens up about the backlash she faced regarding her baby shower.
She clarifies that her friends paid for the event themselves, implying that the media had no right to criticize it.
However, one question remains unanswered: who leaked the information to the press in the first place?
Without someone informing the media, how would they have known about the baby shower?
For instance, we are unaware of Catherine’s daily activities when she is not working.
She could be leading a normal life with her family, away from the public eye.
It becomes evident that the baby shower was intended for public consumption.
It was an orchestrated affair arranged by a PR agency, showcasing their high-profile clientele and aiming for positive publicity.
It is hard to believe that such an event was a spontaneous gesture of friendship.
Instead, these relationships seem transactional, organized by a PR agency for mutual promotional benefits.
When Megan traveled to New York, there is no way the paparazzi could have known her plans or whereabouts unless they were informed.
Even if they did manage to find out, it would require a stalker-like dedication to obtain her flight details and follow her car to the hotel.
The paparazzi would not have known why she was there or who was accompanying her unless they had been tipped off.
Interestingly, the sales office is merely a block away from the hotel.
On the day of the baby shower, I asked a hotel employee if they had noticed the paparazzi swarming the premises earlier.
To my surprise, the employee had no idea about the commotion and was unaware of who Megan Markle was.
Only when I mentioned Prince Harry’s wife did she recognize her.
Contrary to popular belief, there was no crowd of people screaming for Megan or her guests.
No one witnessed anything extraordinary.
It was just another ordinary event in a city where similar happenings occurred in multiple locations.
In one of the books, it is mentioned that Megan, Amal, Gayle, and others had an agreement to use the baby shower as a means of gaining publicity.
Gayle King has publicly praised Megan on television.
An article in Bazaar quotes a source who attended the event, stating that the party took place in Williams’ room, specifically the Grand Penthouse at the Mark Hotel.
Approximately 20 of Megan’s closest friends, ranging from her teenage years to the present, including Amal Clooney, Gayle King, and her former Suits co-star Abigail Spencer, were present.
Amal Clooney herself once mentioned in an interview that Megan was so kind that she allowed her staff to escort all her famous friends into the hotel for Archie’s shower ceremony.
If Megan or one of her friends indeed leaked the story, then she should have no grounds for complaint.
By planting the story, she sought importance and media attention.
She desired to be associated with renowned names in a public setting.
Additionally, she arranged for herself and the guests to enter through the main entrance of the hotel, whereas it is common practice for high-profile individuals to use the back entrance.
The world should have taken notice of Megan from the moment her wedding was broadcasted, where she invited only her mother and friends from Suits and her college sorority.
