What did Queen Elizabeth make of their ugly decision to run away to America in order to make a quick buck, aka “financial freedom?” One royal expert is spilling the Earl Grey about that.
Royal Family News – The Queen Does Not Complain
After the ungrateful pair launched themselves across the ocean, one of the first things they did was cement their reputation as thirsty savages. As GoodTo notes, in 2021, “the couple participated in the infamous Oprah Winfrey interview. During the nearly two-hour conversation, both Harry and Meghan made several allegations against ‘The Firm,’” many of which were immediately proven as false. Take for instance baby Harry’s wail that his dad cut off his allowance forcing him to find a way to support his wife and child. Not true according to outraged royal sources.

Not surprisingly, the couple’s gruesome treatment of the monarchy and his family provoked fierce debate. Social media lit up with opinions for and against the selfish pair. But in the middle of the anarchy, Queen Elizabeth took a different approach.
Royal commentator Victoria Arbiter told the One Way Ticket Show podcast that the queen displayed, “measured emotions,” which reflected her, “life-long approach to controversy.”

The monarch apparently hoped that the matter would be resolved privately and, “took her time to reflect upon the allegations made during interview and attempted to sympathize with the couple and their experiences before releasing an official Buckingham Palace statement.”
Arbiter said, “She never gives an emotional reaction to something. She pauses, she takes a very measured approach. She stops, she listens, she learns and then she considers before responding in any capacity.”
“In many respects we saw those tactics at play when Harry and Meghan decided to leave the monarchy. They had released all of their information about how they planned to do it and what had upset them and their many grievances. The Queen did not react right away.”
In response, the dignified queen released an eloquent statement about the brutes who tried to ruin her reputation via Oprah: “The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan. The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning. While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately. Harry, Meghan and Archie will always be much loved family members.”
Arbiter said the statement, “In saying that, it was like, we heard you, we perhaps see things a little differently, now let’s hash this out behind the scenes.” Instead the Markle’s continue to this day to appear to throw shade rather than play ball. Where did Harry learn his manners?
