Concerns are mounting among experts that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s efforts to reshape their public image might not yield the desired results in the UK, given the significant challenges they previously posed to the Royal Family.
Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams expressed skepticism about the couple’s rebranding prospects in the country, suggesting that their past actions have left a lasting impression that may not be easily overridden. The issue came to light following revelations that the Sussexes have enlisted the services of a UK-based public relations agency to assist in their rebranding efforts, reported Daily Express.
Per Mr Fitzwilliams, “Now that [being Meghan’s PR ‘guru’ in the UK] is a Sisyphean challenge” and “really, it is.” This comes despite the expert admitting, “To be fair, she’s always done something on International Women’s Day, regarding herself as a feminist, there’s no doubt that what she says gets a tremendous amount of coverage, but not necessarily favourable coverage.”
“But if she’s seeking to rehabilitate her reputation here and in Europe, I simply don’t see it.” After all “The Sussexes are far, far less popular in the States, but as far as Britain is concerned they’ve been at rock bottom for a very long time.”
Fitzwilliams pointed out that over the past four years, Harry and Meghan have been at the center of considerable controversy within the Royal Family, leading to widespread public discourse and, in some instances, disapproval. Fitzwilliams emphasized the enduring nature of the challenges Harry and Meghan have introduced, hinting at the deep-rooted memories within the British public that might hinder the couple’s attempts to revitalize their image.
Despite their intentions to move forward and possibly mend their public persona, the legacy of their actions and the subsequent fallout with the Royal Family could cast a long shadow over their rebranding initiatives in the UK. As the couple embarks on this journey to redefine their roles and public perception, the success of their efforts remains uncertain.
The enduring impact of their previous endeavors and the complexities of their relationship with the Royal Family continue to influence public sentiment, potentially complicating their path to a successful rebrand in the eyes of the British populace.
