Meghan Markle is keenly aware that her upcoming visit to the UK carries significant implications for her and Prince Harry’s relationship with the royal family. According to a former royal insider, the Duchess of Sussex understands the importance of managing her public profile when traveling to avoid damaging potential opportunities for a reunion.Speaking on behalf of ActionNetwork, former royal butler Grant Harold offered an assessment of Meghan’s possible approach to the visit. Harold, who has worked within royal circles and understands the expectations surrounding such events, suggested that both Meghan and Harry recognize the delicate nature of their impending return to Britain.
Grant Harold on Meghan Markle’s approach to bridge construction
Harold outlines what he thinks Meghan’s strategy for the trip should be. “If I were her, I would try to be as low profile as possible,” the former worker said. “I think she and Harry are becoming more aware of it and seem keen to make amends, so maybe she’ll use this trip to build bridges rather than promote the brand Meghan.”The former royal staffer, however, admitted that predicting Meghan’s actual behavior presents challenges. “I’d love it if he went that route, but again, there’s always a chance we’ll see him pop up at some event,” Harold noted.
Meghan Markle’s royal ties should not be used for celebrity events
Harold expressed particular concern about a potential setback during Meghan’s visit. The former employee believes it would not be strategically wise for the Duchess to use her royal connections to advance her personal celebrity brand or business interests.“He certainly shouldn’t be using it for celebrity events,” Harold said bluntly. “It’s very likely that he’ll be invited to things. Being realistic, I think there’s a chance we’ll see him go to a few things and promote himself and his brand. It really wouldn’t be a great idea and if there’s talk of a potential reunion, it could affect things.”
