Meghan Markle’s received praise for letting Prince Harry shine after his early departure from the Invictus Games.
Organizing the Duchess of Sussex about her sage move, public relations expert Edward Coram James also explained why Meghan’s stay would have caused more controversy.
Meghan returned to California to be with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, while Harry stayed for the conclusion of the event.
Coram James noted that Meghan’s presence could have invited criticism, whatever his actions. However, leaving early, she paid attention to athletes and the cause.
He said L’Express, “Meghan should leave the Invictus games at Harry. This is his project, and he is more than able to generate support and attention for this incredible cause.”
“Over the years, their common brand has become a little tarnished – not because of all that they have done with, but because of poor public relations management,” added the expert.
“Meghan’s involvement was always going to be a situation without gain – criticized whether it arose or not. But at the end of the day, it has become a distraction for many people.
“She was engaged without being above, and affectionate without being too staged. Now, going down and returning home, she allows the orientation to move entirely to the athletes and the cause itself, this What are the Invictus Games all on.
“It also shows maturity on his part – grateful when to let Harry direct and when to withdraw for the greater good of the cause.”
