Meghan’s Ellen appearance is her attempt to redeem herself after her court blunder, where she misremembered facts.
The Duchess of Sussex was forced to apologize to the court over forgetting emails during litigation in a case against Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL), who publishes the UK's The Mail on Sunday newspaper.
Meghan forgot emails she had exchanged with an aide who was briefing authors regarding an unauthorised biography about her and Prince Harry.
Speaking to Closer, Duncan said: "Having to apologise for misremembering facts in court is a blow to Meghan.
"She’s caused chaos for herself and has now somewhat lost control of the narrative, and Harry and Meghan like to have their voices heard and share their so-called truths.

"Meghan’s image and reputation are absolutely everything to her, so if either of those are negatively affected, she’s got to do something to rectify things. The Ellen interview was, in my view, a form of damage control."
The Duchess of Sussex previously won the battle with Associated Newspapers Limited over the publishing of a letter she wrote to her father Thomas Markle.
Associated Newspapers Limited is currently challenging the ruling and believes a trial should take place.
