Prince Harry, Meghan Markle playing 'dangerous game' like Princess Diana?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's recent moves suggest as they are  following in Princess Diana's footsteps.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been accused of playing a "dangerous game" in the US to regain their reputation, a royal expert has claimed.

In an op-ed for the New Zealand Herald, Daniela Elser claims that despite the Duke of Sussex tearing down the Firm for playing the media game, he has done just that with the promotion for his memoir Spare, which has seen him give a number of revealing interviews for mainstream media outlets. 

Elser penned: "This week’s Lili christening story was broken by the most tabloid of titles, and by a London-based journalist who frequently covers the Royal Family and has to spend grey mornings in Welsh towns reporting on the Princess of Wales’ outings, no less."

"To be clear here, the actual story does not directly quote the duke or duchess – but it does include confirmation from a spokesperson and details about when the event took place (Friday, March 3) and by whom (“the bishop in the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles, the Rev John Taylor”) along with a plethora of intimate details," she added.

The author continued: "Yet there has been no outcry by the duke and duchess about their privacy being breached, about the press poking their rapacious noses into the family’s private life." 

Prince Harry's mother Princess Diana also had a similar relationship to the press, sometimes courting the attention and at other times crying out against being hounded, according to royal the expert.
