Prince Harry has been everywhere this September, while Meghan Markle has all but disappeared from public view. In this episode of Where Pop Culture Meets PR, we're unpacking what that split says about the Sussexes' strategy since moving back to the UK. From a skydive in Canada to a teleprompter meltdown at the Clinton Foundation, Harry's month has been loud and visible, and oddly more focused on Canada than on the country he's just moved back to. Meghan, meanwhile, has posted three times on Instagram, and none of it about her own brand.
We're walking through Harry's 'partner playbook', borrowing other people's platforms without hammering home his own Invictus message, and why that matters with roughly £20 million in sponsorship still needed. We're talking Amazon rumours, a possible Diana documentary tie-in, and why Meghan's near-silence, from As Ever's quiet newsletter to Cotswolds gossip about farm shop convoys, is filling the gap with speculation instead of strategy. As we hear in the episode, 'communications is also about consistency, and if you're not consistent then you cannot be credible.'
