Meghan Markle has once again found herself in the middle of a storm — and this time, even her supporters are struggling to defend her. The Duchess of Sussex was accused of making an “utterly bewildering” and “beyond stupid” move during her recent public appearance, sparking outrage and confusion across social media.
According to eyewitnesses, Meghan made a comment that was meant to be light-hearted — but it didn’t land that way. Within hours, clips of the moment were circulating online, with critics calling it “tone-deaf” and “out of touch.”
“She really doesn’t think before she speaks,” one commentator said. “It’s as if she’s trying to make headlines — and she succeeds, but for all the wrong reasons.”
Others suggested that the former actress is struggling to balance her public image and her attempts to rebrand herself outside royal life. “Every time she takes one step forward, something like this drags her two steps back,” a royal watcher remarked.
Despite the backlash, a few of Meghan’s fans defended her, saying the moment was taken out of context and blown out of proportion. Still, the damage was done — the video racked up millions of views, and the criticism poured in from all sides.
This latest controversy is another reminder of how quickly public perception can shift — and how Meghan Markle’s every move continues to divide opinions around the world.
