Recently, Vanity Fair published a story titled "American Hustle," which was critical of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. This article has caused eyebrows to be raised, especially considering that the publication had previously shown support for the couple.

According to a story by Daily Mail, it would appear that the change in tone is the result of a long-standing conflict that began with Meghan's cover story in 2017, in which she openly announced her love for Prince Harry. Anna Peele, a contributing editor, asked a number of people who were related to the Sussexes for their opinions. These individuals described the Sussexes as "the most entitled, disingenuous people on the planet."

When Meghan and Prince Harry accused Vanity Fair of publishing a "racist headline" in the cover article, the relationship between them and the publication began to deteriorate.

Meghan apparently thought that the story focused too much on her connection with Prince Harry rather than her own identity, despite the fact that the article was mainly positive. She was particularly dissatisfied with the cover sentence, which she considered included racist overtones, and she made an effort to have it altered in the digital edition.

The latest piece, which contained assertions that some of Meghan's former associates sought treatment as a result of their experiences working with her, may have been attributed to this dissatisfaction, which may have set the scenario for the article.

During the course of the piece, Meghan was shown as a person who was capable of displaying conduct that was "really, really awful" when the circumstances did not correspond with her expectations. A number of individuals who are close to the Sussexes have referred to these allegations as "distressing," according to Yahoo.

One of Meghan's first interactions with Vanity Fair took place in 2017, when she was looking for a new public relations team. The individual who had previously provided her with guidance during her acting career, Keleigh Thomas Morgan from Sunshine Sachs, was someone she hired.

In her cover story, Meghan discussed her relationship with Prince Harry; however, she later expressed her discontent with the way the piece was handled, stating that she felt it was more about Prince Harry than it was about her.

In addition, the article compared Meghan's behavior to that of a "Mean Girls teenager," pointing out that she would first be friendly among staff but would become chilly when things went wrong.

A source asserted that she was skilled at managing her relationships, frequently disparaging those whom she believed were to blame for her problems.

There have been some former employees who have backed Meghan and Prince Harry, characterizing them as kind bosses, despite the unfavorable images that have been reported.

On the other hand, the allegations of bullying and abuse have surfaced once again, reiterating statements that were made in the past regarding their time spent at Kensington Palace.

Tom Bower, an author who specializes in royal affairs, made the observation that these allegations might cause significant harm to Meghan's efforts to recast her public image as a devoted mother and wife.

The image of Prince Harry as "lost, out of his depth, and naive" raises questions about the couple's potential in the entertainment business in the future.

Richard Fitzwilliams, a commentator on the royal family, issued a warning that their charitable endeavors might not be successful in light of the current charges. As a result of the stark contrast between the couple's past escape from scrutiny in the United Kingdom and their desire to receive favorable press in the United States, they find themselves in a perilous situation as they proceed with their public personas.
