Meghan Markle’s Strategic Move Ahead of King Charles’ 75th Birthday

Meghan Markle orchestrated a bold plan well in advance by arranging for her mother, Doria Ragland, to participate in a carefully orchestrated photo opportunity during a tea celebration honoring King Charles' upcoming 75th birthday.

The purpose behind this move was to ensure that she did not overshadow the monarch himself.

However, recent reports indicate that King Charles, who is poised to reach this significant milestone on November 14, appears content with the absence of both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from the event.

The couple, along with their children based in Southern California, were notably excluded from the guest list for this intimate family gathering.

Surprisingly, the majority of prominent members of the British monarchy breathed a collective sigh of relief at their nonattendance.

Royal correspondent Neil Sean aptly remarked, “Who needs critics at a family celebration?”

shedding light on Meghan's previous comment regarding the passing of Harry's father, an event that deeply affected King Charles.

Sean emphasized that the king found Meghan's public declaration hurtful and unexpected.

Five years ago, Charles could not have predicted such a turn of events.

As he has aged, he has grown increasingly cognizant of the challenges associated with monarchy.

His deliberate decision to exclude his youngest son, who recently released a controversial memoir, was a strategic one as he plans to mark his 75th birthday privately with close relatives.

King Charles, satisfied with his possessions, has made specific requests regarding gifts, cards, and flowers, urging them to be directed towards local charities or tailored to his personal preferences given the ongoing global cost-of-living crisis.

The king's exclusion of Harry and Meghan from the guest list appears intentional for the time being.

Meanwhile, Meghan took the opportunity to send a message through her mother, Doria, attending the tea party on her behalf, a move that may have gone unnoticed by the king's guests.

Meghan seems to be actively seeking media attention, especially in anticipation of significant royal events.

On the day of the king's African-American art and history collection event at Sophie Stadium in Inglewood, Meghan unveiled a photograph of Doria Ragland.

The image, reflecting Meghan's sense of style, depicted Doria in an elegant power suit exuding positivity, alongside American actress Victoria Rowe and Dini Brewer.

Meghan's media strategy mirrors previous photographs involving the Kardashians and Kris Jenner engaging with personalities, hinting at a calculated approach.

Interestingly, this announcement coincided with King Charles commencing his birthday celebrations at Highgrove, where about 60 guests, including community advocates from Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, and Somerset, gathered to celebrate with a cake-cutting ceremony in his honor.

Given the current global challenges, the king opted for a low-key celebration on his special day, surrounded by family and friends.

Meghan's attempt to make her presence felt at this milestone event may have caught some attention, but whether it achieved its desired impact remains uncertain.
