Meghan Markle will never win over the public in the same way Queen Camilla did in the past, a royal expert has claimed.

The Duchess of Sussex has suffered from a low favourability rating among the UK public since she and Prince Harry quit royal life in 2020. But she is not the only royal who has battled with the public’s opinion, as Camilla also faced a wave of public scrutiny when she began publicly dating King Charles.

The key difference in the major royals though, is that Queen Camilla has managed to turn around her public image after decades of work to win back even her harshest critics. It comes after Prince Harry’s devastating loss in royal rift was exposed as Meghan ‘holds the cards’.

As the Queen has started stepping up her public appearances and her support of King Charles through his cancer journey, her public image has greatly changed, earning her more royal supporters than ever before.

This wasn’t always the case though, as Camilla was seen in the eyes of many as “the other woman” after her on-off relationship with King Charles while he was still married to Princess Diana.

While Camilla has managed to improve her image, some royal commentators have wondered whether the same public rehabilitation would be possible for Meghan Markle. However, one royal expert believes one major difference between the two women explains why Meghan will never win the public back.

Speaking candidly on the podcast Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered last year, expert Robert Jobson said that Camilla managed to change public perception as she never commented on the hate she has received, whereas Meghan has repeatedly spoken about it.

Jobson said: “Through all of the bad times she had, [Camilla] never said a word. She never spoke publicly about anything. That’s what’s likeable about her. She’s a very likeable person. She’s got a great character and she’s not looking for anybody to like her…”

He continued: “If Meghan spends her life worrying about whether she’s liked or not invariably [she’ll] end up disappointed because some people like you and some people don’t, that’s just the way it is.

“So can she turn herself around, Meghan in the UK? I doubt it, I doubt it.”

Jobson also said that Camilla’s loyalty and willingness to take on more royal responsibilities in recent years, without ever complaining about it, would have hugely contributed to her growing popularity.
