A royal analyst recently scrutinized Meghan Markle's apparent quietness amidst Prince Harry's ongoing legal tussle with the media.
On an episode of "GB News," British journalist and royal biographer Angela Levin spoke with Dan Wootton about what she perceived as Markle's "strategic" withdrawal. Wootton raised the issue in the context of Markle's minimal participation in Prince Harry's recent engagements, most notably after the promotion of his book "Spare" earlier this year.
"Her detachment seems systematic, almost as though she is severing ties incrementally to avoid a sudden, dramatic rupture. It seems as though she is ensuring that her disconnection is subtle yet steady," Levin suggested. "I suspect she is rendering it increasingly difficult for him to live with her, potentially leveraging their mental health conversations and his confessions about his military service, which leave him vulnerable to public scrutiny. But that's a problem of his own making."
Levin went on to conjecture that Markle could exploit Prince Harry's admission about drug use in his memoir to her advantage. Levin even brought up Markle's mother, Doria Ragland, living with the couple, and proposed that she might serve as a witness against Prince Harry.
"Could she argue he's unfit to care for their children due to his psychological instability? Having her mother staying with them, potentially as a witness, could be a strategic move, one that's deeply concerning," opined Levin, author of "Harry: A Biography of a Prince."
She noted that Prince Harry is currently in a "dismal condition," emphasizing how he appears mired in past traumas and even suggesting that his wife is allegedly failing to offer him the support he needs.
"She seems absent in times when he needs support the most - dealing with the passing of the Queen and his grandfather, and his solo appearance at the coronation," Levin elaborated. "He appears to be left to cope alone."
Joining Levin in speculation was investigative reporter Tom Bower, who questioned whether Markle would eventually part ways with Prince Harry, as she allegedly has with other significant people in her life. Bower likened the situation to a "slow-motion" revelation of Markle's potential next move.
"Is she prepping to distance herself from Harry, as she's done with others she no longer finds beneficial? Could what we're observing be a gradual unveiling of her next big move?" Bower wondered.
Although Bower was unable to predict Markle's next step, he suspected she was preparing for a significant action, stating, "I've consistently said she's brewing something momentous. We've been waiting to discover what her next move will be for weeks now."
