Both Harry and Meghan are examples of the Dunning-Kruger effect, a cognitive bias in which people with low intelligence/competence/ability tend to overestimate their capacities. It is related to the cognitive bias of illusory superiority that comes from an inability to objectively evaluate their own intelligence, competence and capacity. In other words, they don’t recognize their stupidity because they’re too stupid to do so.
