Meghan Markle Should End Family Drama For The Sake Of Royal Family

Meghan Markle should end her ongoing family drama for the sake of the royal family.

Sheela Mackintosh-Stewart, a relationship expert, told The Sun that the Duchess of Sussex should make it a priority to make amends with her family to avoid tarnishing the reputation of the royal family.

“Meghan is now royal too and, being the most famous family in the world, any negative stories of wrangling can potentially tarnish the reputation of the royal family, which is undesirable. There are therefore good reasons why Meghan should take the necessary steps and make it a high priority to end the conflict now,” she said.

According to the expert, Markle should focus her attention more in peacebuilding and healing family fractures, preferably before her baby is born. If Markle would assume the role of peacemaker, this could undoubtedly show her quiet and strong authority and a force for good, which is a win-win situation.

But Mackintosh-Stewart said that she also understands how upset Markle must have felt over everything that her family has said about her. However, it is important to note that no family is perfect.

“Unresolved anger merely exacerbates existing issues so families who don’t tackle their problems at the time are the losers. Think about it: what purpose does family dysfunction and carrying grudges serve?” she said.

The relationship expert also said that Markle may understandably expect her dad, Thomas Markle Sr., to make the first move, but there are also instances wherein the children are the ones that make the first move. For Mackintosh-Stewart, Markle should be the one to reach out to her dad first to make amends.

Doing so will not only help Markle and her family, but it will also help Prince Harry’s wife to promote world peace, and she will be seen as a role model for family unit and peacebuilding.

But at the end of the day, the decision is still in the hands of the duchess.
