This reaction was triggered by a user's accusation that King Charles was using the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to "stay relevant." Another critic chimed in, disputing claims that Diana would be proud of Harry, arguing that the author of "Spare" had betrayed his family for financial gain, exploiting Diana's memory to play the victim.
Royal photographer John Swannell shared similar sentiments in a conversation with the Daily Mail last year, suggesting that Diana would not have liked Meghan because she might perceive her as having taken her son and turned him into a puppet.
On the same note, royal author Tina Brown, speaking to the Daily Beast, emphasized Diana's strong bond with her youngest son, expressing the belief that Diana would have been "very, very protective of Harry" and likely anxious about the direction he and Meghan have taken.
