#19 Befriending Celebrities
The media frequently portrayed Princess Diana as an outsider who upset the royal family. Nice story, but it doesn’t hold water. Diana spent much of her childhood living in the shadow of the royal estate. As a matter of fact, it wasn’t until Meghan arrived that Britain had a genuine outsider in the form of a divorced Hollywood actress. However, many journalists still portrayed Meghan as a shallow New Yorker who only cared about hanging out with Hollywood’s elite.
It is true that celebrities like George Clooney and Oprah were among Meghan and Harry’s closest friends. So, how is that any different from Kate sending a birthday gift to Reese Witherspoon’s son or Diana befriending Elton John and Freddie Mercury?
