Bryony Gordon describes Prince Harry and Meghan as a “pretty ordinary couple” who has “no desire to do anything other than protect their children.”
Bryony Gordon, a close friend of Prince Harry and a fellow mental health advocate has described the Duke and Duchess of Sussex as an “ordinary couple” living in an “extraordinary” situation.
“I was reminded of the fact that they are a pretty ordinary couple existing in an absolutely extraordinary situation,” she said.
Prince Harry and Meghan often felt ‘disappointed’ for…
Gordon, who has known Prince Harry for nearly a decade, spoke to the Daily Mail in celebration of his 40th birthday. “When I left, packed off by the happy couple with a jar of their homemade jam (which I then left in the back of a taxi in a jet-lagged stupor; somewhere in Los Angeles, a cab driver has one of the earliest batches of American Riviera Orchard’s produce),” she shared, while narrating her view on the royal couple.
Gordon noted that when people inquire about Prince Harry and Meghan, they are often “disappointed” by the reality of the couple’s day-to-day lives.
“There are no airs or graces with them,” she explained. “No desire to do anything other than protect their children from an increasingly digital world that likes nothing more than seeing the worst in people.”
Gordon noted that high-profile figures like Harry and Meghan, who, despite their fame, are just trying to do their best. “A world that forgets that no matter how high profile a person is, they’re just doing their best, like everyone else,” she said, and added, “This is not what people want to hear, but it is what I’ve found, time and time again.”
