A royal historian, Dr. Tessa Dunlaw, has come out suggesting that there’s some kind of “vacuum” in the royal family’s public image. Excuse me, but where exactly is this vacuum? Have we not seen Princess Catherine absolutely shining in every single role she takes on? Have we not witnessed Queen Camilla standing steadfastly by King Charles’s side through thick and thin?

What really gets under my skin is the suggestion that the royal family somehow needs Harry and Meghan’s “glamorous knack” and showbiz appeal. Are we living in the same universe here? These are the same people who threw the entire royal family under the bus with unfounded accusations during the Oprah interview, who’ve been trying to monetize their royal connections while simultaneously trashing the institution.

It’s not about Hollywood red carpets and Netflix deals. Real glamour is Princess Catherine visiting children’s hospitals with genuine care and compassion. It’s Queen Camilla tirelessly continuing her literacy campaigns without seeking the spotlight. It’s King Charles dedicating his life to environmental causes long before it became fashionable. That’s true royal glamour—not the manufactured, Hollywood version Meghan is trying to peddle.

And speaking of King Charles—let me tell you, his response to these ridiculous demands was absolutely spot-on. He basically told them to stay right where they are. Can we just take a moment to appreciate how, even while dealing with health challenges, King Charles still has the strength and wisdom to see through their manipulative games?

Remember how all of this started? Harry, once our beloved “spare,” seemed to have found his place in the royal family, supporting his country and his brother. Then along came the actress, with dollar signs in her eyes and dreams of being the next Princess Diana.

Now, let’s talk about their so-called “glamorous knack.” What exactly have they achieved since leaving the royal family? A bunch of failed Spotify deals, Netflix stockpiled with half-truths and manipulated narratives, and random appearances at events where they’re clearly not the main attraction anymore. Meanwhile, William and Catherine have been absolutely crushing it with their royal duties. William’s work on homelessness is a continuation of his mother’s legacy in the most genuine way possible. Catherine’s “Early Years” project is literally changing lives. But apparently, this isn’t glamorous enough. Give me a break.

And about this so-called “vacuum” the royal family needs to fill—let me tell you, the only vacuum I see is the one between Harry’s ears since he fell under Meghan’s spell. Our working royals—William, Catherine, King Charles, and Camilla—have been handling their duties with incredible grace, especially considering the health challenges they’ve faced. Their strength and dedication during these times show exactly what real royalty is all about.

It’s hard to ignore the timing of all this. While Princess Catherine is focusing on her health, and Queen Camilla is recovering from a chest infection, these two opportunists are trying to position themselves as some kind of solution to a problem that doesn’t exist. It’s like they’re circling like vultures, waiting for any perceived weakness they can exploit.

I’ve been covering the royal family for years, and I’ve never seen anything like this. The sheer calculating nature of it all is astounding. Think about it—every time there’s any kind of challenge within the royal family, there’s Harry and Meghan, ready to step in and “help.” It’s so transparent it’s almost laughable.

Now, let’s talk about this “showbiz gloss” and public good-doing they’re supposedly so good at. What exactly does this mean? Showing up at random events, making everything about them, and then disappearing back to their mansion? That’s not service; that’s self-service. The royal family doesn’t need showbiz gloss. They have something far more valuable: authenticity, dedication, and genuine service to the people.

Remember how Meghan couldn’t handle just six months of actual royal duties? She complained about having to do walkabouts and meet the public. And now, suddenly, she thinks she can take on Queen Camilla’s role? The same Queen Camilla who has been steadfastly supporting the king and carrying out her duties without complaint or drama?

And Harry—how far he’s fallen. From the prince who created the Invictus Games to the man who now makes awkward cameos at random events and appears in mental health commercials. It’s truly heartbreaking to see what he’s become. The man who once stood proudly in military uniform now spends his time making cringeworthy Netflix content and writing tell-all books about his family.

Real royal work is not about glitz and glamour. It’s about showing up, rain or shine, and supporting the causes that matter. The suggestion that the royal family needs Harry and Meghan’s “glamour” is not just insulting; it’s delusional. The monarchy has survived for over a thousand years without Hollywood glitz, and it will continue to thrive without it.

How rich it is that they think they could somehow replace Catherine and Camilla. Catherine, who has spent years learning about the institution and dedicating herself to meaningful causes, has shown nothing but grace and dignity in every situation. Queen Camilla has literally transformed public opinion through years of quiet, dedicated service. The very idea that Harry and Meghan could fill these roles is laughable.

What’s even richer is how they’ve conveniently forgotten how they once attacked the very institution they want to rejoin. They’ve accused the royal family of racism, claimed they were unsupportive during Meghan’s mental health struggles, and suggested the entire system was outdated. But now, they want back in? They think they can just slide into Catherine and Camilla’s roles? I don’t think so.

King Charles’s response shows exactly why he’s the perfect monarch for our times. He sees through their manipulation, their games, and their attempts to capitalize on any current challenges within the family. His message is clear: the institution is stronger than ever, and it doesn’t need the kind of glamour that comes with scandal and controversy.

What Harry and Meghan really want isn’t to serve the monarchy or the British people. What they want is the platform, the prestige, and the ability to monetize their royal connections. They want the perks without the responsibility, the titles without the duty, and the spotlight without the scrutiny. Well, guess what? That’s not how it works.

Our working royals—William, Catherine, King Charles, and Camilla—understand that true royal work isn’t about glamour or entertaining. It’s about making a real difference in people’s lives. And for those who might say I’m being harsh, let me remind you: actions speak louder than words. While the working royals have been quietly getting on with their duties—supporting their charities, representing the nation with dignity—what have Harry and Meghan been doing? Making podcasts about themselves, writing books about themselves, and appearing in documentaries about themselves. See the pattern?

The royal family doesn’t need their type of glamour. What the royal family represents is something far more valuable: consistency, dedication, service, and dignity. These are the values that have sustained the monarchy for centuries, and they will continue to sustain it long after the Sussex saga is nothing but a footnote in history.

There are no roles waiting for Harry and Meghan to claim. The royal family is stronger than ever, despite the challenges. Keep supporting our true royals—they’re the ones who deserve our attention and respect, not these wannabe royals trying to claw their way back through manufactured drama and manipulation.
