‘What we know now about her is that she has a sort of a strange relationship to objective reality,’ says writer Vanessa Grigoriadis, who wrote about the Montecito-based duchess in 2018.
Davis spent the day interviewing Meghan at her mansion in Montecito, where she moved after she and Harry tumultuously departed left royal life in 2020. At first, it seemed that Davis had crafted a glowing tribute to the duchess, but bit by bit the story revealed itself to be a carefully worded takedown of her pretensions about her California lifestyle, her marriage, her parenting choices and her importance in royal history.
Meghan clearly wasn’t happy with the story, telling Variety a couple months later that she tends to be “really trusting, really open” but that she could “survive” the setback.
That’s in contrast with much of the British media, especially the tabloid press. While Grigoriadis said she’s not a fan of the tabloids, she disputed that idea that the tabloids were overwhelmingly racist or cruel to Meghan when she and Harry were first dating. Mostly, the tabloids were curious about the new woman in Harry’s life and were happy to sell newspapers by playing up the romance.
She also disputed the idea that the U.K. tabloids were this horrific “monster” in Meghan’s life. That may be a monster for Harry, given that the paparazzi hounded his mother, Prince Diana, when she was alive and were present at her death.
