Expert Adam Toms opines for Express: “Meghan could have ensured that the Crown had a modern edge, and extra reach in America, putting it on a surer footing for years to come.

He adds: “But, because she and her husband have run off to America, the wedding is looked back on as more of an infamous ceremony, rather than a joyous one.”

“On the contrary, last week’s wedding of Peter Phillips and Harriet Sperling was praised by royal fans.

“The couple showed class and restraint – some things that are a rarity when considering Harry and Meghan – enjoying their big day without trying to send a message to the world, nor causing a ruckus,” he notes.
