Meghan Markle hit the ground running when she joined the Royal Family and was quickly able to harness the public speaking skills she had built up over the years. However, many authors and commentators have subsequently said Meghan was never able to grasp the fact that The Firm works together as one, rather than operate in individual branches.
The idea was explained in journalist Tina Brown’s book ‘The Palace Papers: Inside The House Of Windsor - The Truth And The Turmoil’ where she wrote that Meghan wanted "leading-lady" status after she and Prince Harry enjoyed a hugely successful royal tour of Australia shortly after their wedding. She added that Meghan reportedly couldn’t understand why no-one was congratulating her and felt that the monarchy “needed her more than she needed them".
