Meghan Markle was “clearly” trying to send a message with her latest posting spree on her eighth wedding anniversary to Prince Harry, a PR expert has claimed. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex married on May 19, 2018, in Windsor.
On Tuesday, Meghan marked her marital bliss with various posts on social media. Early in the morning, UK time, the Duchess posted 24 previously unseen pictures from the wedding ceremony and reception in St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.
In videos uploaded to her Instagram stories, Prince Harry could be seen surprising his wife with an anniversary cake while he sang Happy Anniversary with his children.
He also gave Meghan a sculpture of two penguins, a tribute to the time they dressed as a pair of penguins for a party after their engagement.
Nick Ede, a Brand and Culture expert, told the Daily Express: “I think Meghan’s anniversary posting spree was clearly designed to humanise her brand and reconnect with audiences on a more intimate, emotional level.”
He added: “I do think she was trying to communicate a message. The posts seemed intended to say: ‘We’re happy and deeply in love despite everything that’s been written about us.’
“Family content is incredibly powerful online because it creates emotional engagement, but it’s also risky when you’ve previously spoken publicly about privacy and protecting children from media exposure.”
The Duchess of Sussex gave a powerful speech last Sunday at a memorial in Geneva, Switzerland and urged global health leaders to act to keep children safe online, adding they are being shaped by systems “designed to capture attention at any cost”.
The opening of the Lost Screen Memorial featured an installation of 50 illuminated lightboxes, each displaying the mobile phone lockscreen image of a child who lost their life because of online violence and digital harm.
It was hosted by the WHO and Archewell Philanthropies, the charitable foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, ahead of the 79th World Health Assembly.
It was also run in partnership with The Parents’ Network, a community of bereaved families advocating for safer online spaces for children and young people.
