Why Prince Harry’s Exes Didn’t Receive As Much Criticism As Meghan Markle

Prince Harry’s exes didn’t receive as much criticism as Meghan Markle for a reason.

One netizen took to online forum Quora and asked if the Duke of Sussexes’ ex-girlfriends received the same criticism his wife, Markle, receives at present. The majority of the online users who responded said, “no.”

Prior to marrying Markle, Prince Harry was in an on-again, off-again relationship with Chelsy Davy. Many thought that they would end up together as their relationship lasted for seven years. After Chelsy, Prince Harry dated Cressida Bonas for two years. However, neither of them caught the interest of the media as much as Markle, which spared them from too much criticism. The royals fans shared their thoughts about the matter.

“They didn’t draw attention to themselves when they were dating Harry. They were discreet. Unlike Meghan…” Claire Chase wrote.

“Not that I can remember! They were all discreet and did not draw attention to themselves. I really cannot recall any bad publicity surrounding any of those we knew of due to the press,” Jacquie Maurice agreed.

Meanwhile, Janine Blackburn, a royal watcher, believes that things would be different for Chelsy and Cressida if they ended up with the royal prince. “If they had married Prince Harry they would be under going some of the spite campaign” that the trolls demonstrate, she wrote.

According to sources, Prince Harry loved Chelsy but their relationship didn’t end up in marriage because she was hesitant to surrender her freedom. She knew that she wouldn’t be living the life she wanted once she joined the royal family.

“It was so full-on. Crazy and scary and uncomfortable. I found it very difficult when it was bad,” Chelsy said about dating a royal.

“I couldn’t cope ... I was trying to be a normal kid, and it was horrible.”

Meanwhile, one netizen believes that Prince Harry and Markle’s marriage mirrors Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage. According to the online user, “all the signs are there.” The user implied that Prince Harry would eventually divorce Markle and get back with Chelsy whom he really loves. It can be remembered that Prince Charles divorced Princess Diana to get back with Camilla Parker Bowles, his true love.
