By Sheila Mckenzie-
Royal commentators are stuck in a cycle of vengeance attacks against prince Harry and Meghan Markle, a trend of reports indicates.
Commentators ranging from royal biographers to royal editors continue to lend their critical and partisan views against the duke and duchess of Sussex in the media, in response to every major publicity announcement by the couple to reveal information which could be damaging to the royal family.
The duty would appear to be influenced by a fear that Prince Harry is prepared to wreak unthinkable damage on the royal family, harming the historical dignity of the monarch.
Royal commentators are believed to have been unimpressed with Prince Harry’s choice of selecting an actress who was an actress and a divorcee into the royal family, against traditional norms. Other observers believe the fact Morgan was going to be the first woman of colour in the royal family added to disapproval against her from royal experts right from the beginning, but there is no hard evidence tosupport those views.
Of the commentators that have so far come forward, very few of them have actually addressed the issues that has divided the royal family. Instead, their focus has been on showing their loyalty to the royal family , and the staunch supporters of television presenter, Piers Morgan.
In response to Prince Harry’s latest announcement to publish memoirs about his life, royal commentators have continued to pour out to express their disapproval of Harry’s ongoing plans to give more details about his life and personal feelings.
Harry announced earlier this month that he is releasing a tell-all book next year, which is promises to be an “accurate and wholly truthful” first-hand account of his life. The announcement continues to annoy royalists and media commentators who find the public attacks by Prince Harry damaging to the royal family.
The public revelations from The Sussexes have split the British public into two- those sick to death about the never ending negative attacks against the royal family, and those itching for more tell -all stories, intrigued by what will come next.
There are those totally sympathetic to prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who feel they have been treated badly, and those frustrated with them, and feel Meghan Markle has been the bad news for the royal family in the sense that she should have known what she was getting into, and always had plans to exploit the royal family for her own selfish purposes.
Prince Harry’ himself has indicated that he always wanted out, and that the arrival of his wife confirmed royal duties which included the ‘never complain’ custom, was never for him. His actions in extended public interviews, continues to be affected by the reaction to his public comments about the royal family, setting the entire affair in a vicious cycle of criticisms and revelations.
Royal commentator Emily Andrews is the latest in a long list of so- called royal experts to jump on the band wagon. Like those before her, and to come after her, Andrew’s loyalties are believed to be towards the royal family and the entire camp upset with Sussexes.
Neither her nor her colleagues of royal experts will take any responsibility for potentially contributing to the whole breakdown when the couple were subjected to one sided attacks by the media on a constant basis during the pregnancy of Meghan Markle before the birth of her first and second child.
Meghan, who is currently being investigated by the palace for bullying allegations, has been accused of not being very likeable during her time in the palace. Not much information is known as to what efforts were made by these same royal commentators to address the many issues that led to this bitter fall out.
Royal Brand
Andrews has suggested that the Duke and Duchess have had to reveal more about themselves to fuel the royal brand in the US than perhaps they would have liked.
She said Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are stuck in a cycle of having to reveal more and more about their private lives to get by.

In the Channel 5 documentary Meghan at 40: The Climb to Power, she explained that the couple have to “remind” people that they are still royal in a bid to remain relevant. Relevance is something that would always have accompanied the couple in any scenario-in or out of the constitutional royal fold- due to the global recognition that comes with a high profile union such as this.
Error
Emily Andrew’s comments in this regard are obviously in error because the royal background of Prince Harry speaks for itself for all who know who he is. Meghan Markle, who has no royal background, has no claim to royalty, but benefits directly from her connection to Prince Harry through marriage, and her two children, Archie, and Lilibet.
Ms Andrews said: “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.
“They have to talk about more private moments.”
Royal historian Ed Owens suggested that Harry and Meghan now have a complicated relationship with the media.
”While they have claimed to want privacy while in the UK, he argues, they’ve performed a u-turn now they’re stateside.
“Harry and Meghan have consistently argued that they don’t have sufficient privacy, that they’re lives are difficult and burdensome because of the glare of the media,” he told The Mirror.
“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.”
Tell All Book
It was announced earlier this month that Harry is releasing a tell-all book next year, which is promises to be an “accurate and wholly truthful” first-hand account of his life.
Stewart Pearce, a close friend of Diana’s who also coached her on her voice and posture, says the Duke is following in what could’ve been his mother’s footsteps.
He has claimed that the late princess would have also written a memoir had her life not been tragically cut short in 1997 aged 36.
He told the Sun : “Diana’s life and purpose were committed to complete transparency, and so I’m sure she would have written her autobiography full of all the many things she learned from her experiences within the Royal Family, and beyond.”
Stewart added that this shows that Harry has inherited his mother’s bravery in wanting to tell his own story.
He explained: “I feel that what Diana was doing was providing transparency about what she was experiencing at that time, which shocked the world, you know there were three people in this marriage, and the changes that she was trying to bring to monarchy, which indeed is something that she really did both when she was alive and also now when she is in death.
“What Harry is doing is going on a stage further and not just revealing what took place, but providing causative information about why treachery took place.”
