Meghan Markle Seeking Royal Recognition, Former MP Claims
Nadine Dorries alleges the Duchess of Sussex is actively trying to establish her own branch of the Royal Family and capture public attention.
Meghan Markle is strategically positioning herself to create an unofficial royal branch and dominate public discourse, according to former Conservative Member of Parliament Nadine Dorries. Writing for the Daily Mail, Dorries asserts that Markle, whether one likes her or not, possesses a distinct ability to command the spotlight.
Dorries points to Markle's recent appearances, including an event at Claridge's Hotel in London alongside Nobel Prize winner and activist Malala Yousafzai, as evidence of her intent. The former MP believes these actions indicate a desire to establish a separate entity within the royal sphere. "Meghan has shown us what she really wants," Dorries stated, suggesting that the Duchess is aiming to become "queen of the news cycle."
Dorries suggests that the expected reaction from Catherine, Princess of Wales, will be to continue with her royal duties, charitable work, and family life, effectively ignoring Markle's perceived attempts to draw attention. "Nadine suspects Kate's instinctive reaction will be to ignore Meghan’s ‘look at me antics’ and continues with her duties, her charitable endeavours and family life," Dorries wrote.
However, Dorries warns that the Royal Family should be vigilant. She also noted Markle's social media activity, including a video posted to Instagram showing her children, Archie and Lilibet, on a country stroll. "Meghan posted to her Instagram page a video of her children on a stroll in the countryside. Archie, seven, pushed a scooter and Lilibet, five, followed, while the family dog trailed behind," the article states.
Dorries concludes that Markle's actions indicate she is serious about her objectives, implying a need for the established royal institution to acknowledge and potentially counter these efforts. "I will always support our future queen and I want her to win this new 'war' - but she must up her game," Dorries stated, referring to Catherine.
