Meghan Markle’s Trojan Horse: Using Lili to Sting the Royals (Exclusive)

Written By Angela & Alana

Meghan Markle is going all in for 2025 and I've been holding back too much tea.

Let me start by saying this: I feel a little guilty. While I’ve been faithfully covering the ongoing saga that is Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s royal clownery over on YouTube, I’ve been holding back. Not anymore. It’s 2025, and it’s time I start pouring the tea I’ve been steeping for years.

Meghan recently appeared in a teaser for Emma Grede’s podcast, promising to finally spill the tea… yep, the same lukewarm tea she’s been threatening to pour for five years now—and every time, it’s the same recycled pitch about revealing her “true,” “authentic” self and story.

Once again, the hypocrisy practically screams through the screen. Meghan casually sips tea, clearly leaning into British symbolism while teasing a “tea spill” of her own—performing aristocratic mannerisms from a culture she’s spent years publicly condemning.

It’s funny how she adopts the aesthetic of British nobility while insisting she escaped it for being cold, oppressive, and, in her words, racist.

This latest image shift—playing posh while claiming victimhood—won’t land. You can’t cosplay the very institution you claim broke you and expect the audience to buy it.

It’s giving pop star in her rebranding era who suddenly decides her first albums were trash, so we’ll take the new stuff seriously. Except in this case, there’s no banger—just another soft-focus podcast and the illusion of vulnerability.

If you are one of those people who are like “I don’t know why you hate Meghan so much” or “people hating on her are just racist,” a drag she wish stuck… my opinion of Meghan didn’t come from her public persona—which that alone is enough to turn anyone off, but rather from sources over 5+ years.

In January 2024, I spoke to a source who told me, “She’s trying to become an American princess. The American extension of the royal family. She wants everything and anything to do with the royal family.”

Shortly afterward, Meghan released the teaser for her brand American Riveria Orchard (in March 2024), now named As Ever in a rebrand gone wrong, as I’ve been covering.

“She thinks people should just treat her as an American extension of the royal family.” — my source

Fast forward to 2025 where she was sending PR baskets with the HRH title that she agreed not to use following stepping down as a working senior royal.

“The Sussexes will not use their HRH titles as they are no longer working members of the royal family,” the palace said at the time.

When dragged about that, she had a source tell The Post that she used the HRH title on a private note in a personal gift — not intended for a public purpose.

Imagine your “friend” using a royal title they’re not allowed to use publicly… but casually dropping it in private with you. This, from the same person who whined on Netflix about how the royals were just as formal behind closed doors as they were in public. The irony writes itself.

Which brings me to Meghan’s ultimate Trojan horse: her daughter, Princess Lili.

Lilibet: The Crown Jewel of Meghan’s PR Machine

Despite the well-documented tensions with the late Queen Elizabeth—and a relationship that was far from warm—Meghan and Harry still chose to name their daughter after the Queen’s private nickname, Lilibet.

It’s almost sadistic. Imagine being at odds with someone behind the scenes, yet publicly acting like it’s all love and roses—to the point of naming your child after them.

It’s giving, “Oh, this was your personal, intimate nickname? Cute. I’ll take it and make it public.” That’s the kind of calculated move designed to get under someone’s skin while pretending it’s a tribute.

Now, Lili is an interesting case—because Meghan’s using her to pour salt directly into the royal family’s wounds. She represents everything the Firm didn’t want: a royal successor born on American soil, raised far from the palace, and styled like an “American princess.” At least, that’s the image Meghan wants to project. She’s turning Lili into a symbol of what the royals “lost” or, depending on who you ask, failed to embrace.

She’s constantly posting about the kids—especially Lili, which I’ll get into later. But here’s what’s interesting: for the recent Father’s Day post, Archie’s face was finally shown, despite all the effort they used to put into hiding it. The only face still being purposefully shielded? Lili’s.

That wasn’t accidental—it was calculated. Lili’s scarcity makes her more powerful in Meghan’s narrative. By keeping her hidden just enough, Meghan controls the mystique, the access, and the emotional pull. It’s PR 101: the less they see, the more they want—and Meghan knows exactly how to drip-feed that image for maximum impact.

Archie vs. Lili in the video:

One of my sources told me that Meghan “knows exactly what she’s doing with Lili.”

“That child represents what the royals don’t have—access, connection, control. And Meghan’s not letting that go to waste.”

According to my source, Meghan is fully aware that Lili is the most “removed” from the Windsor fold, and she’s allegedly using that distance to send a very intentional message.

“It’s a silent power play,” the source continued. “The royal family barely knows Lili, and Meghan leans into that every time she dangles a birthday photo or name-drop. It’s less about the child and more about the control.”

“She knows Lili is the one they have the least connection to. That distance makes her a blank slate—and Meghan’s using that to her advantage.”

The message here? That Lili, who was born after Harry & Meghan had relocated to the U.S. and has had minimal contact with royal relatives, is being positioned as a symbol of what Meghan sees as the family’s failings.

If you think her vendetta against the royal family is dead… then you’re quite wrong. Every appearance, every confession, everything she says has a hidden message—and spoiler alert: they’re always aimed straight at the palace.

Nothing hits harder in the PR battlefield than a “misunderstood mother” shielding her children from royal coldness. It’s calculated, it’s manipulative, and it works.

“Think about it,” a different source told me. “Every time public interest starts to dip or the Sussex brand needs a refresh, suddenly there’s a whisper about the kids—especially Lili. She's like the exclusive character who only makes guest appearances when ratings are low.”

She looks at Lili as her ultimate Trojan horse, and it’s something she’s practically said herself.

On her podcast, she told Beyonce’s mom that, “I wonder if one day I’ll be in business with Lili and we’ll be building something. That’s the best.”

Lili is a 3-year-old… and yet she’s talking about her being her business partner.

I mean who did Meghan choose to launch the As Ever rebrand?

It’s becoming increasingly clear that Meghan is using her children as royal armor. Just look at the way she handled Lili’s birthday: four separate posts, a twerking video, personal photos of her and Lili, then a separate post for Lili and Harry, then a whole vlog of their family day at Disneyland.

Meanwhile, Archie—her firstborn—got one post. No viral video. No flashy narrative. Barely a whisper by comparison.

Archie’s birthday post from serial-Instagrammer, Meghan.

It’s not just favoritism, it’s tactical branding.

Lilibet, named after the Queen’s personal nickname and born on U.S. soil, has become the face of their "AmeriRoyal" rebrand. Every public appearance, every carefully curated image of the kids is another tool in the long war of optics.

There was also an ongoing rumor within the royal fold on whether or not Lili even exists. It was almost something going around as a joke because of how sus Meghan would be when it came to the kids.

Meghan, who is desperately trying to prove herself, was manic posting the kids as soon as she got back on Instagram, almost to be like “oh yeah? You thought they didn’t exist? Well, what is THIS?!”

That is how she functions and if you listen to what she says in interviews, she exposes that very fact.

If you haven’t been keeping up with the clown show, I invite you to become part of our YouTube fam where Meghan and Harry are just the gift that keeps on giving.

Nowadays, she’s claiming that her kids are selling their homegrown veggies at a farmer’s market…

This is the same woman whose neighbors have publicly said she doesn’t engage with the community, keeps her distance, and avoids casual interaction. But now we’re supposed to believe she’s out here running veggie stands with the kids and chaperoning field trips?

She cracks me up because if that is true, why are you slaving your kids? 😂

The Imitation Game: Meghan’s Calculated Copy of Royal Life

With Meghan, it’s less about sharing her “authentic” life and more about subtly one-upping Catherine and William—two people who, frankly, saw right through her from the start.

Over time, she’s developed a habit of quietly mimicking their public persona, borrowing bits and pieces of their image to craft her own version of royal-lite branding.

And then there’s the kids. The comparisons between Archie and Lilibet and their Cambridge cousins aren’t just inevitable—they’re baked into the narrative.

Meghan and Harry seem hyper-aware of the optics, almost desperate to ensure their children aren’t seen as somehow less than the heirs inside the palace.

That’s why the kids are constantly positioned as “special,” “thoughtful,” or quietly impactful—because it’s not just about parenting, it’s about PR. The children are being used not only to elevate the Sussex name but to serve a personal, strategic agenda.

People caught on when Prince George organized a cake sale for a charity important to his dad, and it immediately reminded everyone how Meghan is trying to position Archie and Lili as do-gooders too, like… selling veggies in Montecito.

Jam was something that Catherine was known for making and gifting to friends. King Charles even has his own jam line.

So suddenly, Meghan—who’s never shown any real love for homemaking—starts making jam? Sure, maybe. But watch how quickly that story unravels… in just two months.

In April 2025, she said the “jam” idea was from Netflix Chief Content Creator, Bela Bajaria, which rolled into the idea of “With Love, Meghan.”

Yet, in June 2025 on the Emma Grede podcast, Meghan claimed that “truth be told,” she’d just been making a lot of jam and preserves at home—sending them as gifts to friends. Apparently, they all texted her at the exact same time, encouraging her to turn it into a business because it made them so “happy.”

Like girl get tf up. This isn’t some Snow White movie you constantly think you’re living in. She has an obsession with portraying this fairytale life and it’s nauseating to listen to.

Jk I’m lying. It’s hilarious for me. She truly entertains me. She has a future working as someone who can’t be fr.

Meghan seems to deliberately try to steal Catherine’s identity and try to shift into something that she never was. She’s trying hard to pretend like the Hollywood-influencer-wannabe-actress persona she had on The Tig was this homemaking life she’s trying to show off now, but that’s not true.

A source once told me that “Meghan will stop at nothing to destroy William and Catherine. She just does not like nor will accept that one day they will be the King and Queen of the United Kingdom.”

I think Meghan struggles with the reality that Catherine’s journey—from an ordinary college girl to a princess—is authentic and effortless in a way that simply isn’t hers. Catherine’s story is one that’s already been told and embraced by millions.

Meghan, on the other hand, has to go above and beyond to manufacture a new narrative because hers isn’t naturally unfolding the same way.

A Brand Without a Compass

Meghan doesn’t even seem like she knows what she’s doing. It’s why she said she won’t be releasing any more As Ever products until the first quarter of 2026, despite boasting about how successful the launch was… only to take it back.

On the final & bonus episode of her podcast Confessions of a Female Founder, Meghan addressed the As Ever product launch from April — you know, the one with the jam jars that sold out in under an hour.

She basically admits she doesn't know what the plan is. One minute it's a strategic rollout, the next she's worried it's annoying for customers. In her own words:

“We planned for a year... and then everything sells out in 45 minutes. Yes, amazing, great news. Then what do you do?

Are we going to replenish and sell out again in an hour? Or is that annoying as a customer? I’m looking at it saying: just pause. That happened. Let’s wait until we are completely stable and we have everything we need.”

So, in classic Meghan fashion, she announces a pause — says she wants to reassess, gather data, and figure out what As Ever is even supposed to be… even though you should already have that figured out before launching a brand but ok.

But in an interview with Fast Company Magazine, Meghan said that she planned to move away from food products altogether and hinted at future fashion and hospitality ventures. She even said she wouldn’t release anything new until the first quarter of 2026.

Sounds like a plan, right? Well... that lasted about five minutes.

Just hours after that podcast episode aired — and after the Fast Company piece ran — Meghan went right back on Instagram and posted a photo of berries, saying that new things are coming this month.

So… is the brand paused? Is it expanding? Is it moving into hospitality? Or are we just getting more jam?

She even forced Fast Company to add a correction as if she wasn’t the one who directly fed them the information that new products will be coming in 2026…

Anyways, we covered a lot of ground here. If you guys want more inside tea about Harry and Meghan, let me know! I’ve been hoarding a lot.
