‘boastful’, according to Vogue
editor Edward Enninful.
The chosen women range
from New Zealand premier
Jacinda Ardern to actress-
turned-activist Jane Fonda,
climate campaigner Greta
Thunberg and transgender
actress Laverne Cox. Meghan
also includes an interview with
Michelle Obama, in which the
pair discuss motherhood and
female role models.
The issue has not had a
universally warm response.
One tweet called it ‘vacuous
rubbish’ and another branded
it as ‘absolutely awful’.
Also, as the Royal family is
supposed to remain strictly
apolitical, eyebrows have
been raised at Meghan’s
involvement. It’s ironic that
she has joined one of the most
conservative and hidebound
institutions in the world, but
is so vocally calling for change,
even if in rather woolly terms.
‘I want to shine a light in
a world filled with seemingly
daily darkness,’ she said.
Another bone of contention
is the striking similarity
between the Vogue issue and
a charity coffee table book
called The Game Changers,
published in Australia in

15 ‘inspirational’ women on
the cover – one of whom was
Meghan, who also wrote an
essay for the book.
One of the authors,
Samantha Brett, said, ‘It is
very flattering. She obviously
likes our concept.’
Meghan’s involvement in
magazine publishing, and the
announcement that she is
launching a charity fashion
range, is another indication,
say onlookers, that she and
Harry appear to feel they can
accept all the benefits of being
F
rom the very early
stages of their
partnership, it
was clear that Harry and
Meghan would be a Royal
couple with a difference
- and an agenda. But
now, one Royal expert
has warned that their
determination to control
their own destiny,
while still making their
opinions known, is
leading to ‘disaster’.
The latest headline-grabber
is Meghan’s stint as guest
editor on glitzy fashion bible
Vogue. Her September issue
has Forces For Change as the
cover slogan, with pictures
of 15 women chosen by the
Duchess for their ‘influence’ - plus a mirror, so that the
reader can look at their own
reflection and take inspiration.
Meghan does not appear
on the cover herself, as she
is said to have considered it
