Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s latest move to take legal action in a British courtroom is seen by many as another attempt to paint themselves as victims and defame the royal family. However, this time they face a different challenge—a disciplined legal examination that they cannot control.
The courtroom environment is likely to be more grueling for them, as their claims will be subjected to scrutiny by experienced lawyers. Andrew Green KC, a highly regarded attorney, has been described as a “beast in court,” suggesting that Harry may face a level of humiliation he didn’t anticipate.
From the outset, Harry’s efforts to substantiate his claims haven’t gone well. On the first day of the trial, he admitted contradictions between his memoir and his evidence, further damaging his credibility. In his pursuit of victimhood and attention, he seems to have gotten more than he bargained for.
The royal family has long understood the importance of staying out of politics and courtrooms to maintain public trust. Queen Victoria’s approach of “never complain, never explain” has served them well, allowing the monarchy to be seen as impartial and relatable to the public. It’s been over a century since a member of the close family gave evidence in court, as they have actively avoided such situations due to the potential damage to their reputation.
Prince Harry and Meghan’s attempts to damage the reputation of the royal family have consistently backfired. If Harry had chosen a different path, he might have spared himself further negative scrutiny. His decision to skip the first day of the proceedings and his subsequent testimony defaming the press and government only served to portray him in a negative light.
In court, Harry had to admit that he had sparse evidence to support his claims and that some of his court allegations contradicted what he wrote in his autobiography. The questioning by Justice Timothy Fancourt proved to be far less forgiving than Oprah’s interview, putting Harry on the defensive.
It is ironic that Harry and Meghan, who complain about media intrusion, have subjected Harry’s own family to public scrutiny by selling personal information. Moreover, Harry is able to pursue legal action freely because he withdrew from royal life, while the family he criticizes cannot defend themselves.
Ultimately, the situation reveals a deeply unhappy and troubled man who refuses to take responsibility for his own bad decisions and blames others for his failures. Despite being lampooned and criticized, the tragedy of Harry’s narrative is the self-inflicted wounds caused by his own actions.
