Recent claims by royal commentator Daniela Elser suggest that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s actions leave the Royal Family desperate to maintain their relevance.
Elser delved into this topic in a thought-provoking piece for News.com.au.
The article highlights the challenges faced by King Charles as he strives to uphold the credibility and stature of the Royal Family despite the damaging effects of both Prince Harry and Prince Andrew’s actions.
Elser points out that this predicament has pushed senior working royals to continue their duties, even if it means slimming down the family’s operations and appealing to a younger demographic.
The senior royals seem pressed to “give the family a fighting chance at maintaining a sense of credibility and stature,” Elser emphasizes. As the Royal Family navigates this critical period, they aim to remain relatable rather than distant from the public.
Elser underscores the importance of staying connected to the community and being a domestically and internationally drawcard.
The continued relevance of the Royal Family hinges on their ability to strike a balance between tradition and modernity, credibility and relatability.
