If Meghan were to start spilling the actual tea about living in the palace, in an overtly gossipy way rather than veiled in concern and offence, people would love it

least favourite woman on earthNow the sensible among us might point out that major launches take time to plan, and that Meghan probably didn’t knock all of this work out in an afternoon when she saw that the British monarchy was getting a bit of a tough time in the press. She almost certainly planned this months, if not years ago. But that’s boring and evidence-based and doesn’t suit the “Meghan is evil” narrative..

So I’ve got a suggestion. I think Meghan and Harry, but Meghan especially, should lean into it. Go full villain. If people are going to assume that you’re a bitch, even when you’re trying to be nice, surely the best plan is to lean into bitchiness? Gowho Edward VIII abdicated to marry.

Wallis was famously fairly horrible . She and Edward had snide nicknames for everyone in the royal family – the Queen was “Shirley Temple” and the Queen mother was “Cookie” because they thought she looked like a “fat Scots cook”. She had a needle-point cushion which readSome of Wallis’ biographers argue that she was misunderstood, and overly penalised for having a dry wit and a sense of determination, while others cheerfully admit that she could be a real bitch.

It’s never going to happen any time soon. Whether you think it’s racism, the fact that no one was good enough for favoured royal Harry, her California-ness being incompatible with our Britishness, or the fact that she couldn’t withstand the press’s hazing long enough for it to end, the outcome is the same. She’s fighting a losing battle by trying to tell her story over and over again, as if she’s going to find some hitherto undiscovered vein of sympathy for her plight.
