Meghan Markle left the Royal family almost five years ago for more freedom and to be in full control of her life.
The Duchess of Sussex had her eyes set on some lofty goals. At some point, the former actress even contemplated getting into politics and running for president.
The last few years have been very humbling for the mother of two and her husband, Prince Harry. Those dreams are far from becoming reality.
Markle has learned to adapt very early on, and that is exactly what she is doing regarding her changing circumstances. During the first few years of their marriage, the California native behaved like the star in the relationship, the dominant member.
However, after failing to launch a truly successful business, the dynamics in the relationship are changing. The Duke of Sussex is becoming more assertive, and Markle is forced to be more in the background.
In recent months, Prince Harry has traveled to several countries to promote his charity ventures. He has also made major media appearances without his wife, and he seems ready for his moment in the sun after leaving Markle in the lead role for many years.
The new setting was on display on the couple’s new Netflix docuseries POLO. Some experts have a lot to say about Harry‘s new persona.
Darren Stanton, a body language expert, spoke to The Royal Observer and said: “It’s important for Harry to be seen as the one who is more dominant and powerful. Meghan has previously been seen to wear the trousers in their relationship, which has affected his reputation. If we take a closer look at some of the posture and actions we see, Harry is taking the lead.”
Another body language expert told Express that Meghan played her part well and continued: “Harry’s love of the peacocking, macho world of Polo comes across clearly, but when he and Meghan do appear in brief moments she is very emphatically not depicted as any Pimms-swigging, divot-trampling WAG. Meghan’s presence provides the royal effect as she steps in to be introduced to a player, and Harry steps back to chuckle at the sight of the player bending his head and offering a handshake and a giggle.”
Prince Harry seems to know what he wants and is no longer playing by Markle’s rules. This has been happening for months and has fueled divorce rumors.
However, the pair might make it work if Markle accepts to be a team player and embrace the supporting role.
