Meghan Markle sparks debate as she gives herself a new title

Meghan Markle caused a stir with her latest comment about herself at an event in Santa Barbara.

The Duchess of Sussex claimed she was one of the “most bullied people” in the world and sparked backlash by giving herself a new title.

Prince Harry’s wife visited Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara earlier this month, where she spoke to teenagers about her experiences with bullying.

Larissa May, co-founder of an advocacy group that works with Girl Inc., revealed that the duchess had openly said she was “one of the most bullied people in the world.”

However, Meghan’s claim has sparked new debate as some royal commentators have trolled the duchess, with Chloe Dobbs saying: “That’s just the most pathetic thing to come out of her mouth.”

“Tell that to children who are repeatedly beaten and bullied by parents in abusive homes.”

You, continue GB News continued, “I mean, how pretentious are you, Meghan Markle?”

Former BBC Host Liz Kershaw claimed Meghan was largely not a victim of bullying and was actually just “rightly” criticized for her actions.

Kershaw continued to criticize the Duchess over her alleged stunt, saying: “Most of the criticism has been negative and I think she deserves it.”

Journalist Benjamin Butterworth said there is an “obsession” with Meghan Markle in Britain and some of the criticism she receives may be unfair.

He added: “We are quite aggressive towards her. We’re a little obsessed with the media, whether it’s British or American media.

“I can imagine it’s not nice to be on the receiving end. But I think it’s really wrong to talk to young girls, talk to young people and say, “Pity me.”

“They live a life of luxury unimaginable for 99.99 percent of people on the planet. They should tell these young people what they can achieve, not what they should fear.”

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s mother’s visit to Girls Inc. came months after she and Harry founded The Parents Network, which supports parents whose children have suffered or died from online harm.
