Meghan Markle has learned the hard way that marrying into the royal family isn’t everything that it’s cooked up to be. In a recent interview, she admitted, “It isn’t easy,” sparking confusion whether she made the right choice marrying Harry.
Too Many Differences
Days after meeting the man she’d spend the rest of her life with, Meghan told her best friend, Lizzie Cundy, that Harry was “a catch!” But little did she know, starting a relationship with a royal wasn’t all it seemed. Though they look happy on camera, trouble is lurking behind closed doors…
Disrespecting Royal Protocol
One of the most recent indicators that Harry and Meghan had made a huge mistake was during the Trooping of the Color event. When all royal members were expected to face forward and sing the national anthem, Meghan turned back to speak with Harry, who promptly ordered her to turn around. “She eventually turned around and looked like she was going to start crying,” an insider said.
What Will They Do With Archie?
One of Meghan Markle’s biggest reasons for regretting marrying Prince Harry might be due to the way the royal family treats their baby boy – Archie. The public was confused as to why Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip didn’t attend the newborn’s christening. However, Meghan’s mind could be put at ease a little knowing that the Queen didn’t attend Prince Louis’ christening either last year. Meghan and Harry might also struggle to bring up Archie and future children with shared values.
So Many Sacrifices
The list of the sacrifices that Meghan Markle has had to make for the royal family is enough to indicate that maybe it wasn’t worth marrying Prince Harry after all. The former actress has had to abandon some of the most trivial things in order to fit in. Gone are the days that she can take selfies and post them on social media. Meghan’s no longer able to cross her legs when she sits or a get a colorful manicure.
Dealing With His Exes
Despite marrying into one of the most private, secure families in the world, Meghan still can’t seem to prevent her husband from interacting with his exes. During the entire Trooping the Color fiasco, paparazzi caught ex Chelsy Davy arriving in London to reportedly check up on Harry during this tough time in his life. This is because the exes remained friends after breaking up. Royal correspondent Phil Dampier is convinced that Harry was desperate to marry Chelsy, before she got “cold feet.”
He Had One Last Phone Call With Her
It has recently been revealed that Prince Harry had one last tearful phone call with former flame Chelsy Davy before tying the knot with Meghan Markle. “It was their final call, a parting call in which they both acknowledged Harry was moving on,” a source told royal author Katie Nicholl. “Chelsy was quite emotional about it all, she was in tears and almost didn’t go to the wedding. In the end, she went and promised Harry she wouldn’t try and gatecrash the party.”
Marrying The Royal Family
They say that when you marry someone, you marry the entire family, and Meghan Markle is learning this lesson the hard way. Meghan has struggled to win the hearts of various family members, while also having a handful of altercations. The former actress reportedly brought Kate Middleton to tears when she pressured her into finding “the very best” bridesmaid dress to wear for her wedding. Even Prince William warned his brother not to rush into any relationship, asking him if he was “sure” about Meghan.
Shattered Dreams
Marrying into the royal family means that Meghan Markle had to put so many of her aspirations to one side. And she’s not the first person who has had to do that. Before marrying Prince William, Kate Middleton enjoyed working as a photographer/web designer, but ultimately had to part ways with those passions. Marrying Prince Harry didn’t just mean that Meghan had to rethink her options in terms of pursuing her dreams – her options are now very limited…
She’s Changed Him
It appears that Meghan might have regretted tying the knot with Prince Harry after trying too hard to change him. Duncan Larcombe, who wrote about royal family ongoings for The Sun for a long time, suggested that Meghan Markle may have heavily influenced Harry’s seemingly radical change in behavior in royal environments. “All of Harry’s staff have always thought he was fantastic, but the two of them [together] are high maintenance,” Duncan said. The writer also claimed that the prince has become “quite grumpy and aloof.”
Actresses Don’t Marry Royals
Meghan Markle was required to abandon her acting career to marry Prince Harry, and that in itself is a reason why she shouldn’t have done it! The Duchess of Sussex is a talented actress, who had a main role in the hit law series Suits. Sophie Rhys-Jones also left her acting career behind when she married Prince Edward two decades ago. During their engagement period, Prince Phillip reportedly said the following to Prince Harry: “One steps out with actresses, one doesn’t marry them.” Yikes!
