He pointed out the given the ongoing cancer treatment of King Charles, Meghan’s “sudden appearance on European soil only deepens the sense that the couple are re-establishing a presence they once swore off”.
“Every image – the tailored white suit, the chauffeured car, the candlelit after-party, and the black evening dress – was part of the same message: that she is relevant again on a continent where her in-laws still dominate the stage.”
The royal editor maintained that this was a stern message for the courtiers that Meghan is “no longer afraid of the stage she once fled”.
