There's been a pendulum swing since the Sussexes left the royal family. Now, some commentators say there's no interest in them or anymore attacks on the royals.
For years
members of the royal family have had to deal with reports against them from
people who claimed to be in the know. But after Prince Harry and Meghan
Markle left their roles as working royals in 2020, they became a source
revealing the inner workings of the family and fired a barrage of allegations
against the prince’s relatives
As two
people who worked in the Firm and were really in the know, there was an
appetite for what the Sussexes had to say about Britain’s most famous family.
That appetite waned though for many royal watchers who thought the duke and
duchess went too far and seemed intent on trying to destroy the monarchy while
playing the victims over and over. However, the allegations haven’t stopped and
now the family is dealing with more of them, not directly from Meghan and Harry
though. This time it’s from Endgame author Omid Scobie, who
has been labeled by some as the couple’s “mouthpiece.” But even with fresh
accusations, several commentators think any interest in what went on between
the Sussexes and the family is pretty much gone now, especially in the
Montecito neighborhood where the pair resides.
During an
appearance on GB News royal commentator and To Di for Daily podcaster
Kinsey Schofield, who is based in Los Angeles, discussed the fallout from Endgame on
her side of the pond.
“What is the
fallout to the release of this new book about the Sussexes Endgame by
Omid Scobie? How’s it going down in America?” host Mark Dolan asked.
“Well, you
know, Americans do eat up the soap opera element of all things royal,”
Schofield replied. “That’s why Princess Diana was a queen here in the States,
because of that soap opera element, the gossipy element that she attracted. So
the headlines are here. However, in Montecito, it seems like Harry and Meghan’s
star has fallen quite a bit. Montecito bookstores are refusing — I shouldn’t
say refusing, there’s just no interest in Endgame!”
Schofield
also noted that it’s been reported the Sussexes’ Montecito neighbors are
“uninterested and appalled by the way that Harry and Megan are not respecting
their elders and it seems like they’re being very cruel towards their family
members. So a lot of the neighborhood saying that they are uninterested in the
Sussexes and don’t respect them or appreciate the way that they’ve treated
their family.”
Dolan then
added: “What goes around comes around.”
