A royal expert claimed that it would be bad for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s brand if they cancelled their Brussels trip amid Thomas Markle Sr.’s arrest. He added that they could consider opting out rather than facing questions about Markle’s family scandal throughout the tour. However, a report suggests that Markle won’t be giving a speech and will simply attend, with Harry taking over to share a few words at the Lost Screen Memorial.
Expert Eric Schiffer says canceling the Sussexes’ Brussels trip could damage their image
Eric Schiffer told Page Six that Markle and Harry would likely drink “hot lava” rather than head to Brussels. This is because many outlets at the time would cover Thomas Markle Sr.’s latest legal trouble, and Markle will be asked about it continuously on the tour. He explained, “But cancelling the visit for the Lost Screen Memorial, which honors children who lost their lives to online abuse and social media harm, would be far worse because the extra attention and questions would be debilitating to their brand.”

However, Schiffer suggests that Markle should follow up on her earlier statement and speak about the recent federal charges. “I can imagine that this blistering horror show is extremely upsetting, embarrassing, and frustrating for Meghan, who is highly concerned about her brand and image. At the same time, revealing that vulnerability and concern is very human and will create sympathy for her at a time when she can also benefit from it, since her brand is suffering body blows,” he added, referring to Markle’s decision to not speak at the Lost Screen Memorial.
These remarks come amid Markle addressing the legal drama involving her father, describing it as “distressing” news to hear while expressing sympathy for those harmed. “Although the breadth of what has now been uncovered is more sickening than one could ever imagine, my sincerest hope is that justice will be fully served and that the priority remains the safety and protection of innocent children,” she said in a statement.
