'Cancerous influence in their life': Princess Diana's brother on Harry-Meghan media coverage
Harry and Meghan's return to the UK comes after the royal couple stepped back from their royal duties in 2020 and moved to California in the United States.
Earl Spencer, Princess Diana's brother, has expressed concern over the media coverage surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, comparing it to the treatment his sister faced during her life. In a BBC interview, Spencer stated that the press has a "cancerous influence" on the lives of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The coverage he referred to as "really, really unpleasant" has evidently affected Harry and Meghan, according to Spencer.
Princess Diana, known as the "most photographed woman in the world," was subjected to immense press attention until her untimely death in a car crash in Paris on August 31, 1997. Spencer emphasized that he is not speaking for Harry and Meghan, but rather for anyone facing such daily destruction. He further noted that the press must learn from Diana's example.
Following Diana's passing, Earl Spencer recalled her struggles under constant criticism, seeing echoes of her suffering in the treatment of Prince Harry and Meghan. The Sussexes, who moved back to the UK in August with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, have decided not to resume their royal duties but will live as non-working royals in Britain.
