Meghan Markle’s latest blunder proves one thing

Here we go again. When trouble strikes, the Duchess of Sussex seemingly cannot resist the urge to rush out an explosive counter-narrative to outpace the media storm. But in her haste to have the final word, she forgot the golden rule: make sure your facts are straight first. Within barely 48 hours of releasing a bombshell, highly sensitive statement addressing the reasons behind the rift with her estranged father, Meghan has found herself in the middle of an embarrassing climbdown. Her PR team has been forced into damage control, scrambling to issue a clarification after Scotland Yard publicly contradicted the timeline she laid out. It leaves an uncomfortable, unavoidable question hanging in the air: why on earth hit "send" on a massive public declaration if you aren't even sure of the basic dates?
