‘Cringeworthy’ Meghan and Harry wedding anniversary post
Appearing on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive Show, royal pundit Ingrid Seward admitted she was left cringing.
She sighed: “I mean I’ve never heard of someone doing a mood board for a wedding anniversary, but maybe it does happen now. But I think it’s… Meghan is just so Californian in everything she does. And that is not a criticism, that’s the way they do things.”
Ms Seward went on by suggesting Meghan was trying too hard to convey that she and her husband are happy together.
It seems to me such a very narcissistic way of doing things to celebrate an anniversary.
She continued: “It seems to me such a very narcissistic way of doing things to celebrate an anniversary. Showing it to the world. Surely if they really were as happy as she makes out she wouldn’t need to tell anyone. That’s what it smacks of to me.”
Meanwhile, another royal commentator told The Sun on Monday (May 19), when Meghan shared her tribute, that the post represented “more of the same” from the Sussexes.
Royal author Hugo Vickers claimed: “She obviously wants to put out the message that all is well, and that they’re a happy and united family. And I guess that leaves the rest of us to make up our minds as to whether we go along with it.”
He added: “It doesn’t really say very much, does it? It’s sort of more of the same.”
