Meghan Markle's Controversial Royal Journey Media Battles, Public Perception, and the Albert Hall Surprise

In December 2018, Meghan Markle expressed dissatisfaction with the negative press coverage she was receiving, despite having many positive stories written about her.

Meghan requested Jason Knauf to issue a statement refuting the negative news, but the palace did not manage the media, in the same way, actors might use PR to counteract unfavorable reports.

A significant issue was Meghan’s hesitation to engage in traditional royal duties. Since shortly after her wedding, she had participated in only eight royal engagements, including Trooping the Color and Remembrance Sunday.

This number excludes the Australian tour and spa trip.

While Harry believed Meghan was an exemplary royal, many in the press and the general public began to perceive her as lacking depth, insincerity, and phoniness. Meghan’s perceived inauthenticity clashed with a family that valued genuine behavior.

Those skeptical of Meghan sought stories that confirmed their doubts and soon found more material to support their views.

On December 10, 2018, Meghan made an appearance at the Royal Albert Hall, showing a noticeably large round belly. Just a month prior, she had returned from Australia with a relatively flat stomach, and her rapidly growing baby bump seemed unusual.

With a broad smile, Meghan surprised actress Rosamund Pike by stepping onto the stage just as Rosamund was about to present the award for British Designer of the Year.

Rosamund Pike hid her surprise when Meghan Markle took to the stage with her hands clutching her belly. Meghan was wearing a black velvet dress that showed off her belly. As Lady Colin Campbell perfectly describes the event in her updated book,Harry and Meghan.

The Real Story: Rosamund Pike was kind enough to hide her surprise at the unexpected presence and let Meghan have the spotlight with such professionalism that her expression was unrecognizable. To those of us who are familiar with how these events go, this was a huge red flag. Normally the presenter conveys delight. Instead, there was a yawning void.”

LATEST ROYAL NEWS:

Meghan wore a low-cut black dress and had her hands over her protruding belly “as if she were hovering like a vulture over a particularly tasty meal”, as one fashionista put it. A beaming Meghan dramatically hugged Claire Waight Keller of Givenchy, the designer of her wedding dress, and slickly presented her with the award for British Designer of the Year Womenswear as the audience erupted with delighted cheers.”

If you’ve seen the photos or videos of that evening, the above description captures the moment perfectly. Meghan really did hold her belly more often than most pregnant women, especially those not in their final trimester. At four months pregnant, her belly would have been a slight swelling rather than a huge round basketball.

Following their departure from the UK, Harry and Meghan rewrote history, claiming they were hated by the British public. However, the public and the press mostly liked Meghan and Harry. Many thought Meghan could be warm and effusive, though more people began to view her as someone who turned on the charm when it suited her.

One of Lady Colin Campbell’s key points is that royalty is not known for its surprises. Royalty is meant to be steadfast and reliable, providing reassurance amid constant change. Meghan’s appearance, her choice of a black dress, and her dramatic hug with Claire Waight Keller were unexpected, adding to the surprising nature of the event.
