Her friends advised her against it because tabloids might 'destroy' her
The Duchess of Sussex has talked about the scrutiny and challenges that she's faced as a new member of the royal family. In an interview with ITV for, she said that her friends advised her not to marry Prince Harry out of fears of what the British tabloids might do to her.
She"naively" disbelieved them, telling them,"What are you talking about. That doesn’t make any sense. I’m not in the tabloids. I didn’t get it. So, it’s been complicated.” “I've said for a long time to H - that's what I call him - it’s not enough to just survive something, right?” she said. “That's not the point of life. You've got to thrive, you've got to feel happy. I've really tried to adopt this British sensibility of a stiff upper lip. I've tried, I've really tried. But I think that what that does internally is probably really damaging.
“When people are saying things that are just untrue - they've been told they're untrue but they're still allowed to say them... I don’t know anyone in the world that would feel like that's okay," she said.
