Queen’s brutal strategy to stop Harry backlash

OSTN Staff

Instead of fighting back against The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the Queen will instead deprive the pair of the one thing they appear to crave more than anything else – publicity, The Sun reports. Royal expert Ingrid Seward told the Express that the Queen was not intending to strip Harry and Meghan of their titles. “I don’t think removing the titles would make much difference and it would look very petty,” Seward said, per The Sun.Revealing a more likely plan to protect the Royal Family, Seward added. “I also don’t think it is something the Queen would want to do at this stage of her reign. It would be far more insulting just to ignore them.”“Even excluding them from the jubilee next year gives them ammunition to criticise the monarchy.”It came as another royal expert claimed that Prince Harry and Meghan will have to reveal even more about their personal lives if they want to continue to cash in on their royal ties.The Megxit couple left the royal family in January last year in a bid to have a more private life. But since leaving “the Firm” they’ve been more public than ever, participating in a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey while signing mega deals with Spotify, Netflix and a recent $A54 million book deal for Harry’s tell-all. Royal expert Emily Andrews has said in a new documentary the Sussexes will have to unveil even more of their “private moments” to fuel their royal brand in the US. In the British documentary, Meghan at 40: The Climb to Power, she explained that the couple have to “remind” people that they are still royal.“Because of the royal brand they can get all these multimillion dollar deals but the problem with that is they have to keep reminding everyone that they’re royal and to do so that involves giving more and more away,” Ms Andrews said.“They have to talk about more private moments.“Harry and Meghan has consistently argued that they don’t have sufficient privacy, that they’re lives are difficult and burdensome because of the glare of the media,” royal historian Ed Owens added.“Then they go to the US and this narrative continues until they suddenly open up about everything by agreeing to an interview with Oprah Winfrey.”“Suddenly this idea of privacy goes completely out of the window.“Instead they are opening up very publicly knowing that millions of people are going to see and get a glimpse of the inside story behind the separation of Harry and Meghan and the house of Windsor.”Meanwhile, royal courtiers are reportedly braced for a string of bombshell allegations in Prince Harry’s book, which is due to be published next year, according to a report in The Sun. The Duke of Sussex last week announced he would be releasing a memoir next year in which he will recount “experiences, adventures, losses, and life lessons”. But a small band of staffers who worked for the couple before they exited the royal family are now said to be concerned about the book, the Daily Mail reported. “Harry and Meghan’s former staff members are convinced that this book is being written to settle scores,” a royal insider reportedly told the outlet.“Based on the Oprah Winfrey interview, some of these ex-workers simply do not trust that a full and accurate picture will be presented.“Conversations have already started about what steps they might be able to take to protect their own reputation.”– with The Sun
