Royal commentator Roberta Fiorito weighed in on the potential consequences of Meghan Markle's memoir on the public's perception of the royal family. During a discussion on The Royally Obsessed podcast, Fiorito emphasized the significant impact of a first-person account, stating, “The value of a first-person account is so massive."
Cohost Rachel Bower expressed skepticism about Meghan pursuing such a project, stating, “I really don’t think Meghan is going to write one.” However, she acknowledged that if it were to happen, it would undoubtedly shape the royal perspective, providing valuable context even for those skeptical of the content.
While considering the potential memoir's impact, Fiorito acknowledged the immense value of Prince Harry's first-hand account in shedding light on the royal experience. Nevertheless, doubts linger about Meghan's inclination to undertake a similar venture.
PR expert Lynn Carratt, offering advice to Meghan, suggested that 2024 might not be the right time for the release of such a memoir. Carratt emphasized the importance of timing, recommending that Meghan take a step back from her association with the Royal Family and allow time for the rift to heal before pursuing far-reaching ambitions like a memoir.
Carratt suggested that Meghan could use this time to concentrate on her philanthropic work and consider a quieter release for her autobiography in the future when it would be more relevant. The cautionary advice aligns with concerns about the potential impact of such a memoir, emphasizing the need for strategic timing and careful consideration of its implications.
