Sarah Vine comments that the public-facing group of the Sussexes and the Waleses—once dubbed the “Fab Four”—is effectively being replaced by a “new” Fab Four. In her view, this shift relates to who is currently seen as most aligned with younger audiences and modern public life.
Her article frames the comparison in terms of earlier years before “Megxit” and suggests that the current dynamics around royal attention and popularity have moved on. The piece uses a conversational, personal tone and references familiar royal imagery, including Balmoral and a drawing-room setting, to contrast past perceptions with what she describes as the present situation. Across the sources provided, the central claim remains consistent: Vine says there is a new Fab Four and implies Meghan would face them in a hypothetical face-off at Balmoral.
Because only this outlet’s text is included here, there are no other independent accounts in the supplied materials to corroborate or challenge Vine’s characterization. The available information therefore reflects Vine’s perspective rather than confirmed reporting of events or a formally defined group.
