In a surprising turn of events at Wimbledon 2019, Meghan Markle found herself at the center of controversy when she accused the palace of failing to protect her from the paparazzi.

This incident occurred during Markle’s second appearance at Wimbledon as a royal, having attended the previous summer alongside Princess Kate.

The incident unfolded on Day 4 of the prestigious tournament, where Markle had come to watch William play in a second-round match.

A man was mistakenly accused of taking a photo of her when, in fact, he was merely trying to snap a selfie.

Despite the misunderstanding, Meghan’s security confronted him, causing embarrassment and insult.

This incident was seen as an abuse of her authority and stood in stark contrast to the behavior of other members of the royal family.

Not only did Markle clear the area around her, but around 40 paying guests lost their seats due to her surprise visit.

These individuals may have traveled from overseas or waited years for the opportunity to attend Wimbledon, only to be usurped by the Duchess.

Adding further fuel to the fire, rumors circulated that Markle was not allowed in the royal box because she was wearing jeans.

Additionally, while she watched her friend Serena Williams’ match, she did not bother to stay and support Andy Murray.

In the aftermath of the incident, Meghan accused palace staff of discrimination, claiming they failed to silence the media and cover up her alleged misconduct.

She compared her treatment to that of Kate, stating that if it were the Duchess of Cambridge in her position, the palace would have defended her.

Markle took advantage of the royal family’s “no complain, no explain” policy, using her own propaganda and public relations to portray herself as a victim, garnering sympathy and followers.

This revelation coincides with an expert’s opinion that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are not doing enough to reconcile with the royal family.

Despite their declaration that 2024 would be their year of redemption, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have yet to take meaningful action.

Royal expert Phil Dumpier emphasizes that actions speak louder than words, urging Harry and Meghan to demonstrate their genuine desire for redemption.

Dumpier points out that during Christmas, the royal family made a show of unity, even allowing Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, Fergie, to join them for church and lunch.

However, the message seemed clear that everyone was welcome except Harry and Meghan.

The couple had previously left the royal family in 2020, accusing them of discrimination against their son and airing their grievances on television.

They now reside in California.

As the fallout from the Wimbledon incident continues, it remains to be seen whether Harry and Meghan will take concrete steps to repair their relationship with the royal family and regain public trust.

Only time will tell if their intentions for redemption will translate into meaningful actions that convince the public of their sincerity.
