US star turns new leaf amid Meghan and Harry’s ‘bad’ decision

Former Real Housewives of New York star Bethenny Frankel, 52, has been open about her thoughts on the royal couple in recent months. The Skinnygirl founder has suggested her previous comments about Meghan Markle, 41, and Prince Harry, 38, could be seen as “polarising” and were viewed negatively, which she admitted was not her intention.The podcast host addressed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepping down from the royal family in 2020 and the various business opportunities they have sought in a bid to remain financially independent.As a marketing guru, Bethenny has offered some feedback for the couple’s “terrible” PR strategy, which she doesn’t believe works in their favour.She began: “They departed [the royals] and wanted to be a humanitarian, a philanthropist, use their power for good. They kept on doing things and making deals to make it financially sound for themselves and secure because they were not being supported.”Bethenny referenced her “nightmare” divorce from her ex-husband Jason Hoppy after the pair tied the knot in 2010, and the former couple would separate just two years later in 2012.READ MORE: Olivia Attwood breaks silence after sudden I’m A Celebrity exit US star turns new leaf amid Meghan and Harry’s ‘bad’ decision (Image: GETTY) Bethenny Frankel talks turning a new leaf as she talks Harry and Meghan (Image: Getty) Bethenny Frankel addressed Harry and Meghan’s PR strategy (Image: Getty) Meghan Markle opened up about the couple’s docuseries (Image: Getty)The entrepreneur referenced the couple’s tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey, to Harry’s security requirements, and their children having royal titles.”Let’s get a multimillion pound book deal, a show, a podcast, a docuseries let’s jam it all in,” she remarked.”I still firmly believe they have not made good decisions.
