Prince Harry has been criticized by a royal commentator who described him as lacking intelligence following a series of questionable business decisions made after he and Meghan Markle left the royal family and moved to California.
Nonetheless, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond believes that the Duke of Sussex is more astute than commonly perceived, highlighting the couple’s unconventional journey post-royal duties. Another royal expert, Tina Brown, a close friend of the late Princess Diana, expressed disapproval of the couple’s hectic professional life and newfound Hollywood status.
Brown, in a statement to the New York Times, criticized Meghan’s professional decisions, also mentioning Harry’s perceived lack of intelligence. She pointed out that Harry relied on Meghan for guidance in navigating life beyond Buckingham Palace, only to face a series of ill-advised choices made by Meghan.
Contrary to Brown’s assertions, Jennie Bond refuted the claim about Harry, emphasizing his success in various public roles despite not being academically inclined. She recalled Princess Diana’s similar self-deprecation about her own intelligence, which, in reality, was far from accurate.
Regarding the couple’s professional trajectory post-royalty, Jennie mentioned that despite initial setbacks, both Harry and Meghan have found success in their respective ventures and interests.
Reflecting on Meghan’s business acumen, Jennie commended her humility in acknowledging mistakes and learning from them while adapting to their new life in California, a significant adjustment for Harry.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex appear content with their current Californian lifestyle, focusing on their entrepreneurial and charitable endeavors, with Jennie noting their apparent happiness and success in their chosen paths.
