The possibility of Meghan Markle receiving forgiveness from the Royal Family for her public criticisms has recently been examined by experts, casting doubt on any future reconciliation. Royal commentator Ingrid Seward expressed strong opinions about Meghan’s strained relationship with the family, stating that she “won’t ever be forgiven for dissing the royals.” This comment sheds light on the lasting impact of Meghan’s actions, including her revealing interviews and media projects.
Seward, a prominent royal expert, pointed to Meghan’s controversial revelations in the Oprah Winfrey interview and the subsequent Harry & Meghan Netflix docuseries as major contributing factors to the Royal Family’s ongoing displeasure. Both projects delved into the couple’s experiences within the monarchy, making allegations that were seen as damaging to the institution.
In a conversation with The Sun’s Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson, Seward acknowledged that while Prince Harry may still have a chance to regain public favor, Meghan’s standing with the royals appears much more difficult to mend. She remarked, “I don’t see the same thing for Meghan,” adding that while there is hope for Harry, “deep down people still love Prince Harry, and they want to love him, I think they’re just very, very disappointed in him.”
Wilkinson, who agreed with Seward’s assessment, highlighted the generosity extended to Meghan by the Royal Family before relations soured. He emphasized the numerous opportunities she was given, explaining, “I think the Royal Family gave her so many opportunities.” He continued, “They gave her staff, a house, paid for her wedding, gave her patronages, and made her a Commonwealth Trust ambassador. She had all these opportunities and was given so much to succeed.”
Wilkinson’s remarks reinforce the belief that the Royal Family did everything in their power to support Meghan’s integration into royal life. “I think they gave her everything they could, I don’t think they could have given her anymore,” he concluded. Despite these efforts, the divide between Meghan and the family seems to have widened irreparably, leaving experts doubtful that forgiveness is on the horizon.
As public discussions continue around the royal rift, the possibility of reconciliation remains a topic of intense speculation, with many focusing on Harry’s potential path to redemption, while Meghan’s future with the Royal Family appears less certain.
