Justine Bateman Criticizes Harry and Meghan's 'Victim Olympics' Approach

The actress argues the couple's reliance on victimhood narratives has lost public appeal and questions their media and activism strategies.

Justine Bateman accused Prince Harry and Meghan Markle of exploiting a 'Victim Olympics campaign' to secure lucrative media deals and public attention since leaving royal duties in 2020.
Bateman argued that societal interest in victimhood narratives has significantly declined, making the couple's approach outdated in 2025.
She criticized Meghan Markle's Netflix show 'With Love, Meghan,' attributing its underwhelming viewership to public fatigue with the couple's perceived victimhood narrative.
The actress labeled Harry and Meghan's January visit to a wildfire evacuation center as performative, referring to them as 'disaster tourists.'
Bateman suggested the couple step back from the public eye to focus on personal growth and discovering their true talents.
