When news surfaced that Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, suffered through a miscarriage last July, an outpouring of praise and love towards the royal has been observed.

Meghan was commended for her ‘openness,’ and an approach that is not often practiced by the Royal firm.

Despite this grave news, there are many who still criticize the Duchess and her husband, Prince Harry, for seemingly being ‘hypocrites.’ Preaching their need for privacy, and yet revealing such a personal heartbreak to the world.

Express And Star UK reveals that these steps taken by Markle and Prince Harry towards building a relationship with the media do not come as a surprise.

The couple has been slammed on several occasions and accused of using the media for their PR stunts.

But Meghan’s latest and very personal revelation is a subtle announcement of how they will be handling their personal matters and whether or not they will share it with the world.

Prince Harry and Markle’s exit from the Royal Family also meant that the couple has more freedom in expressing their woes and joys.

Long gone are the days of the couple needing the public relation team of the royals to approve their statements or waiting for the staff to be briefed, including royal members.

The couple can now skip the part where they have to go through the royal PR system. In the New York Times article ‘The Loses We Share’ in which Meghan writes about her miscarriage, the Duchess takes on a personal level in her words, addressing herself in the first person, which has never been applied by any Royal Members.

In a now-debunked website, the couple launched after their primary exit from their royal duties. It stated that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have chosen to revise their media policy, ‘to reflect forthcoming change as members of the royal family.’

“The duke and duchess have chosen to revise their media policy to reflect both their forthcoming change as members of the royal family with financial independence and their wish to reshape and broaden access to their work,” written in the now-debunked site of the Sussex’s.

Both Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have faintly cited that the UK media was one of the many reasons why they chose to leave the Royal Firm.

The brutality of the treatment of Meghan Markle in her royal days was enough for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to call it quits from Britain.
