Meghan and Harry should be 'less Hollywood' royal expert claims

A royal expert has claimed palace officials, who eased Camilla into the spotlight, should now do the same for Meghan and Harry.

Caroline Frost believes it is the palace’s job to encourage Meghan and Harry to become “less Hollywood glamour and more royal”, helping them to follow in the footsteps of Camilla.

An ironic thought given the royals’ appearance at the premiere of The Lion King this week, where they mingled with celebrities on the red carpet.

In order to gain “acceptance by the public” Caroline believes the Duchess of Cornwall’s presence slowly increased at official events.

The expert used the couple’s recent christening portrait to emphasise her point.

Speaking to Sky News she claimed the black and white style of the photo was too “stylised”.

“People have been making some very civilised and cunning manoeuvres to put Camilla in the public eye, and to basically all round praise and approval,” she said.

“So I would hope they would get somebody in who will say [to Harry and Meghan] 'let's just ease off on the Hollywood glamour, bit more royalty'.”

Despite the photo amassing almost three million likes, some people were quick to judge the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for their choice of black and white image.

And this wasn’t the first time they opted for a black and white photograph over the more traditional coloured image.

Two of the three official engagement photos they released were also in black and white as well as an assortment of images on their wedding day.

Many praised the pair for breaking royal conventions and while Caroline Frost believes they need a lesson in being more royal, she does admit “You can kind of see why she [Meghan] would want to have just where she can apply a little bit of creative expression.”
