Harry and Meghan explained that the most important thing for the royal family – or rather the family business – is the front page of a newspaper or the homepage of a website. Every royal household has a communications team that handles PR. It was clear to everyone that Meghan was receiving the most positive attention. So much more than the rest of the Windsor family. Meghan is the star.
“The thing is he either marries into a supporting role, and then he catches the eye or he does a better job than the person he was born for,” said Harry. And then suddenly tone in reporting, said Harry. Suddenly came the words like divas and difficult princess (difficult nobleman, ed.)
James Holt, director of the Harry and Meghan Foundation (Archewell Foundation) and former spokesperson for the palace (2017-2019) put it this way: “When some in the Institute around the family started to see that this new couple could disrupt the power dynamic, the goal became to hide it or make it irrelevant.”
There is a hierarchy within the royal house: the king and heir to the throne are given absolute priority. In other words: they are the most important, you don’t hijack the publicity in front of them.
