His comments began when he sat down with Radio Times and talked about how the duo “hangs by a thread” and that thread is none other than Kate Middleton herself. She even went so far as to accuse the Sussexes of putting on a “Sussex clown show.” “The monarchy hangs by a thread and that thread is Catherine. Because she is the most loved of the next generation.”
“And with Harry leaving and all that kind of Sussex clown show, the Welsh are,” he added before signing off. For those who don’t know, this all came to light shortly after the couple embarked on a cultural tour of Nigeria and even “fell in love” with “Meghan’s in-laws,” as the Duke himself revealed.

Brown’s comment suggests that the couple’s adventures could be perceived as disorganized or less serious (akin to a ‘clown show’) if it were not for the more composed and structured representation provided by figures such as Kate Middleton, whose commitments and projects generally align closely with the long-standing tradition of the Royal Family. traditions and public expectations.
Tina Brown’s criticism underlines the continued scrutiny Harry and Meghan face as they carry out their roles outside the direct influence of the Royal Family. She also reflects wider debates about the different perceptions of duty and service between new and old generations of royals, and how these differences impact the public’s view of the relevance and focus of the monarchy in contemporary society.
