Meghan Markle harbors ambitious goals for herself, envisioning a future where she ascends to the position of Queen, surpassing her sister-in-law, Kate Middleton.
Renowned royal author Tom Bower suggests that the Duchess of Sussex dealt a blow to her own aspirations when she and Prince Harry departed the royal family in 2020.
While the allure of 'financial independence' may have been appealing initially, the couple unwittingly entered into a challenging journey.
"Kate is radiant, successful, and beloved – everything Meghan desired," remarked Tom to Closer magazine.
Highlighting Meghan's yearning for the role of Queen, Tom stated, "Meghan wants to be the Queen, and she doesn't want to be fifth in the succession, alongside Harry."
The royal expert emphasized that Meghan could never surpass Kate, stating, "Absolutely not at all."
Despite Meghan's multimillion-dollar deals with Netflix and Spotify, Tom asserted that these couldn't compensate for her loss of royal status. He observed, "Everything she attempts undermines her status."
Contrary to the privacy she initially sought by leaving Britain, Meghan's forays into the spotlight have resulted in continued setbacks. Tom explained, "Instead of retreating to the privacy she claimed she needed, every time she steps into the spotlight, she loses a bit more."
In a resolute conclusion, the expert affirmed, "She just cannot win."
