Prince Harry was advised to follow one simple rule to fully redeem himself to the British public after his recent trip to the UK, which a PR expert described as a "huge success."The Duke of Sussex spent four days in the UK this week carrying out various engagements linked to causes close to his heart.
He also met his father, King Charles, at Clarence House for the first time in 19 months. The pair had a private tea which lasts a little less than an hour, with many viewing it as a first step to a possible path to reconciliation between the two camps.
Now Harry was urged by a PR expert to keep up the same momentum with his future visit if he wants to succedd and redeem himself to the eyes of the British public.
Renae Smith, founder of PR agency The Atticism, told the Express: "The best strategy for Harry now is slow and steady.
"Regular, low-key appearances that build solid foundations rather than flashy moments.
"If he can keep this up for a year or so, I'd call that a full image reset."
Ms Smith dubbed the Duke's UK visit a "huge success" and claimed it ticked all the right boxes.
She explained: "From a PR perspective, the strength was in its authenticity. Every engagement felt genuine, with a clear philanthropic thread running through it. I've always said philanthropy is his safest and strongest space. It plays to his strengths without inviting controversy.
"Another big win was tone. Nothing felt gloaty or self-congratulatory. Harry avoided the trap of making charity work about himself or making snarky remarks during speeches etc, he just got on with it, and that's exactly what people want to see from him.
"The meeting with his father was also handled well. It wasn't dramatic, it didn't spark gossip, and that quieter energy is exactly what he needs.
"If I were advising him, I'd be calling this trip a huge success, it ticked every PR box."
