Amanda Holden, known for her straightforward opinions, recently shared her perspective on the public’s perception of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle amid ongoing media coverage.
The discussion stemmed from comments made by Graham Norton on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, where he questioned the level of interest among ordinary Britons regarding Harry and Meghan’s decisions.
Norton suggested that most people simply want the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to live their lives peacefully in Montecito, California, away from the scrutiny of royal expectations.
On Heart Breakfast, Holden echoed Norton’s sentiment, remarking that while the press often sensationalizes their actions, the general public may not be as invested.
“I think you’re right. I think the press makes so much of it but none of us really care,” Holden candidly stated, reflecting on the discrepancy between media coverage and public sentiment.
Holden’s co-host, Jamie Theakston, supported her viewpoint, adding, “I think we don’t care that much,” underscoring a perception that the intense media focus on Harry and Meghan may not necessarily reflect broader public priorities.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made headlines in 2020 when they stepped back from their royal duties, relocating from Frogmore Cottage in Windsor to the United States.
Since then, they have pursued various personal and professional endeavors, including Harry’s forthcoming memoir “Spare” and their documentary series on Netflix.

Meghan Markle, in particular, has ventured into entrepreneurship with her new brand, American Riviera Orchard, further adding to their public profile outside traditional royal circles.
Holden’s remarks contribute to an ongoing debate about the balance between private life and public interest for Harry and Meghan, highlighting differing perspectives on their post-royal journey and the media’s role in shaping public perception.
As the couple continues to navigate their new chapter, discussions like these underscore the complexities of fame, privacy, and public scrutiny in today’s media landscape.
