Meghan Markle issued urgent warning as latest choice a ‘double edged-sword’ in royal feud

Meghan Markle’s decision to bring up her mental health during her latest interview with CBS was labelled a “double-edged sword” by a PR expert who touched down on how well it would resonate with her audience.

The Duchess of Sussex joined her husband Prince Harry for a new interview on CBS’s Sunday Morning show with host Jane Pauley to announce their latest project, The Parents’ Network, which aims to tackle child safety online and connect families who have lost their children to suicide due to a lack of safeguarding online.

During the interview, the duchess opened up about her fears regarding online dangers when it came to her children, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3.

But she also spoke about her own mental health struggles as a member of the Royal Family, claiming that she “only scratched the surface” of speaking about her mental health in her now-infamous interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021 and that she hopes “being open” about her own suicidal thoughts and “online bullying” can “save others”.

Now a PR specialist has weighed in on whether Meghan’s decision to bring up her mental health struggles from the past will have a positive impact on the couple’s newly announced project and whether it could further damage their ongoing rift with the Royal Family.
