Lawrence Llewellyn-Bowen, a renowned designer and television personality, has urged Meghan Markle to take her cue from Kate Middleton in order to win over the Cotswolds residents. This request comes as Meghan and Prince Harry have recently relocated to this beautiful and lush area of Britain.
Life in the Cotswolds
Lawrence Llewellyn-Bowen, who is himself a long-time resident of the Cotswolds, spoke about life in the area: "We live very simply and unadorned here." He pointed out that for the locals, human connections and honest behavior are of great importance, and this could significantly impact Meghan Markle's acceptance.
Meghan Markle, a former actress, has moved to the Cotswolds seeking a quiet life away from media frenzy after marrying Prince Harry and leaving royal life. However, it seems she still faces challenges in connecting with the locals.
Differences with Kate Middleton
Lawrence advised Meghan that she could take inspiration from Kate Middleton, the wife of Prince William. He said: "Kate Middleton has successfully won the hearts of the people with her friendly and honest demeanor. Meghan can also establish a better connection with the locals by following her example."
The residents of the Cotswolds are known for their simplicity and unpretentiousness, and they expect newcomers to treat them with respect and honesty. Llewellyn-Bowen believes that to win the people's favor, Meghan must respect the simplicity of life in this area and distance herself from her royal lifestyle.
Despite being recognized as a global celebrity, Meghan needs to be seen in this area as a neighbor and a new friend. Lawrence has urged Meghan to show through her actions that she is also an ordinary person and draws inspiration from their simple and unadorned lives.
It seems that this advice could help Meghan settle in the Cotswolds and establish a better relationship with the locals.
