Prince Harry, Meghan Markle ‘miss the mark’ after ‘trying too hard’

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are accused of trying hard to save their reputation.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are branded power-hungry when it comes to making their mark in public.

PR expert Laura Perkes exclusively tells Mirror.co.uk: “Harry & Meghan have built a reputation that they’re never going to be able to run away from, therefore the media and the public are always going to have a perception of the couple and the intention behind the decisions they make.”

“Sadly, a lot of what they do seems to be calculated, to give the illusion that they’re living by their organisation’s tagline: leading the way with compassion, but the public and the media don’t buy it. They always seem to try too hard and then miss the mark,” Laura added.

She then continued speaking about the Sussex Halloween celebrations.

“It may be that they wanted to create a family tradition, taking Archie and Lilibet trick or treating, to show that they’re ‘just a normal family’ doing normal things, but to me it feels like a PR stunt in disguise. It’s the image they want to portray. The reason they stepped down as working Royals was to have more freedom away from the scrutiny of the media eye, yet they want their ‘normal family life’ captured by photographers, no doubt to achieve more positive publicity.”
