Meghan Markle Won’t ‘Put Up,’ ‘Shut Up’ Anymore, Will Cause Problems To Queen Elizabeth

Meghan Markle’s recent interview was likened to Princess Diana’s Panorama interview from 1995. At that time, the Princess of Wales revealed how isolated she felt while she was a part of the royal family.

In the ITV documentary “Harry & Meghan: An African Journey,” the Duchess of Sussex said a similar thing without using the exact same words. Firstly, Markle said that not many people have asked if she’s doing well. Secondly, she said that the tradition of having a stiff upper lip can be very damaging internally.

Royal expert Camilla Tominey wrote in her column for the Daily Telegraph that Markle’s recent statement could cause problems within the royal family. And Queen Elizabeth II is perhaps the one who will be most affected.

“In insisting he will protect his family at all costs, backed up by Meghan saying she will not adopt the ‘British stiff upper lip,’ the Sussexes appear to be saying something deeper about their ongoing role in the Royal Family,” Tominey said.

The royal expert went on to say that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are no longer willing to shut up – which could cause problems to the royal family who is known for their mantra of “never explain, never complain.” The Queen and the senior royals have all lived up to this tradition, which is why Markle’s statements came as a shock to a lot of people.

Meanwhile, Princess Diana was also known for being very outspoken against the royal family and the monarchy when she was still alive. This was reportedly one of the reasons why her relationship with Her Majesty and Prince Philip became strained.

And it was after Princess Diana gave her controversial interview with Martin Bashir for Panorama that the monarch decided that it was time for her and Prince Charles to finalize their divorce. In the interview, the Princess of Wales criticized the royal family and her ex-husband.
