What Happened to David Foster, Harry’s Dad Number Two?
With Christmas approaching, memories resurface of the Markles' relocation to Montecito and their decision to forego spending the holiday with the royal family in favor of the Fosters and Doria.
Speculation arises among royal enthusiasts about the dynamics at play – did the figurative “bank of dad number two” shut its doors to the Markles?
The transient nature of relationships within their social circle becomes apparent as the Fosters opt not to extend an invitation to the Markles for their upcoming Oscars party, a sentiment echoed by Sir Elton John.
Renowned music producer David Foster, often likened to a father figure by some to Prince Harry, played a pivotal role in assisting the Harkles in acclimating to life in North America.
His wife, Catherine McPhee, shares a connection with Meghan, having attended the same Catholic school, albeit at different stages of their academic journey.
Rumors circulating months ago suggested that Meghan had made unwelcome advances towards David Foster, a situation that neither Catherine nor David took kindly to, prompting them to address the issue with Harry, who dismissed the claims as baseless jealousy.
Recent reports suggest that Meghan is on the lookout for a wealthier partner, a pursuit fueled by her desire for financial security.
Despite her Hollywood background, Meghan's acting career failed to garner significant accolades prior to her union with Prince Harry.
It was only after becoming involved with royalty that she gained widespread recognition, exemplified by her substantial Instagram following, which, in itself, does not equate to uniqueness.
Upon their arrival in the United States, Harry and Meghan found themselves excluded from the upper echelons of American society, failing to secure invitations to prestigious events such as Barack Obama's 60th birthday celebration or the star-studded Met Gala.
Their absence from these gatherings, coupled with lackluster public appearances, including speeches at sparsely attended events like the UN and Veterans Day, further underscored their disconnectedness from the elite circles they aspired to be a part of.
Despite residing in proximity to Hollywood, the couple's ambitions to integrate into the esteemed world of entertainment and politics were met with indifference and skepticism.
Their ill-fated interview with Oprah Winfrey only served to exacerbate their tarnished public image, as airing personal grievances against the British royal family on a globally televised platform was perceived as a breach of decorum by traditional standards of nobility.
The recent passing of Harry's grandparents, particularly the monarch of multiple nations, accentuated the turbulent trajectory of his post-Megxit life.
The absence of familial reconciliation before their demise added a somber layer to an already tumultuous period for the prince.
The narrative surrounding Harry and Meghan continues to evolve, marked by a conspicuous disconnect between their self-perception and societal reception, ultimately defining their contentious legacy in the public eye.
