Kent Gavin, a friend of Princess Diana’s who was also her photographer, reportedly admitted publicly that he did not think Prince Harry’s marriage to Meghan Markle would make it three years.
“When it was announced that Harry was going to marry Meghan, I said to my colleagues and a few people, ‘I don’t give that marriage three years,’” Gavin said, according to The Express.
Contrary to what Gavin said, however, Meghan and Harry actually celebrated their third wedding anniversary back in May.
Royal expert Tom Quinn said that Meghan “makes the decisions” in the relationship as Harry is “quite vulnerable.” He also competed Meghan to Wallis Simpson, the American socialite who married Prince Andrew.
“Mrs Simpson was a strong, dominant woman who gave Edward VIII everything his mother hadn’t given him, he was vulnerable just as Harry is vulnerable,” he said. “If a man who is not very decisive meets a very decisive woman or the other way around they often get on very well because one makes the decisions and the other one goes along with it.”
“Meghan and Harry work because Harry is quite a vulnerable person who only lived in this gilded cage, he’s not very worldly,” Quinn added. “Meghan makes things happen, Meghan makes the decisions. Even Harry said famously, ‘what Meghan wants, Meghan gets’ that says it all.”
Meghan and Harry stepped down as senior royals last year and moved across the world to Southern California. Harry announced last month that he is writing a memoir that will come out next year.
“I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become,” Harry said in a statement. “I’ve worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story — the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned — I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think.”
“I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my life so far and excited for people to read a firsthand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful,” he added.
