Early on Tuesday, May 19, Meghan shared 24 previously unseen photos of her and Harry\u2019s special day on her Instagram<\/a> account. A few hours later, the Duchess posted several new videos from the family celebrations in Montecito, California. It was widely criticised<\/a>, with some describing the move as \u201ccringe\u201d and \u201cembarrassing\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Now, a PR expert has pinpointed exactly why the Duchess lost the \u201cstrategy\u201d game and where it all went wrong.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Nick Ede, a Brand and Culture expert, told the Daily Express: \u201cThe volume of posts was probably where the strategy fell down.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cOne heartfelt anniversary tribute would likely have landed far better than a rapid-fire stream of photos and videos.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n He added: \u201cInstead of feeling organic, it started to feel like a deliberate campaign, and that\u2019s why so many people online described it as \u2018cringe\u2019 or ‘fake’. \u201c<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Mr Eden claimed that the Duchess is operating in a space where her every move is \u201cscrutinised,\u201d saying: \u201cSubtlety is always going to work more effectively for her than saturation.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n It comes after the Duchess delivered a powerful speech in Switzerland last weekend, urging global health leaders to act to keep children safe online, adding that they are being shaped by systems \u201cdesigned to capture attention at any cost\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.express.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Early on Tuesday, May 19, Meghan shared 24 previously unseen photos of her and Harry\u2019s special day on her Instagram account.
