I think you're right. I admire Meghan very much but in retrospect I sometimes wonder if she did too much too soon. I suspect she was eager to use her new position to promote the causes she cares deeply about (very admirable on her part) and jumped right in headfirst. But maybe it would've been better if she'd taken a few baby steps and accustomed herself to the British (and royal) way of doing things first. Try something out, wait for the reaction, then try something else, and wait for the reaction, etc. But I suppose then she might have been criticized for not doing enough. And she clearly wasn't prepared for the tabloid media.
I sometimes wonder how much guidance and advice the "new" royals receive. I was baffled when Meghan appeared with the Queen at a public event and didn't even know if she or the Queen should enter the car first. Didn't anyone think to go over that with her?
Very good points.
I also think Meghan did too much too soon. She had the right intentions, she should have taken her time exactly as you say. Ok she might have been criticised for not doing enough as others have but it would have been better for her in the long run. Easing her in would have been a way to protect her.
