Meghan Markle Faces Backlash After Controversial Interview with Ellen DeGeneres

Fans of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were left puzzled and disappointed after the Duchess of Sussex's recent interview with Ellen DeGeneres.

The cringe-worthy interview has been widely criticized on social media, with many Twitter users describing it as “awful” and “pathetic.”

The backlash has been particularly fierce among Meghan's own fans, with some expressing their disappointment and confusion over her choice of interviewee.

Even self-professed fans of the Sussexes, such as the hosts of the Royally Obsessed podcast, have been left scratching their heads.

Ellen DeGeneres, who has been embroiled in a bullying scandal earlier this year, was an unusual choice for Meghan to appear with.

The TV host was accused of creating a toxic workplace environment, with ex-employees describing her as cold, demeaning, and a nightmare to work with.

Despite opening her current and final season with an apology, Ellen's reputation has taken a hit, and Meghan's decision to go on her show has raised eyebrows even among her own fans.

The interview has sparked a wave of memes and criticism on social media, with many questioning Meghan's understanding of the difference between being a royal member and a celebrity.

During her surprise appearance on the final season of Ellen's talk show, Meghan stepped outside of the studio to pull a prank on a trio of vendors, which saw her forced to do and say whatever the talk show host told her to via a hidden earpiece.

While some fans found the prank amusing, others felt it was beneath the dignity of a royal member.

Howard Brewer, CEO of Newsroom PR, defended Meghan's appearance on the show, arguing that it made sense for the couple to break the mold and speak out about their struggles and thoughts.

However, many fans remain unconvinced, with some criticizing Meghan for choosing to appear on a show with such a controversial host.

The Royally Obsessed podcast hosts, Roberta Fiorito and Rachel Bowie, discussed Meghan's interview at length, with Ms. Fiorito admitting that she had missed the interview and only caught the news bulletin.

She apologized for her mistake and went on to express her concerns about Ellen's toxic workplace allegations and Meghan's decision to appear on her show.

Ms. Bowie also expressed her reservations about the interview, saying that it had left her scratching her head.

She emphasized that while they loved Harry and Meghan, they did not condone the interview and felt that it was an interesting choice that would require more reflection in the coming weeks.

Overall, Meghan's appearance on Ellen's show has been met with mixed reactions, with some fans defending her right to speak out and others criticizing her for choosing to appear on a show with such a controversial host.

While the interview may have helped to humanize the couple, it has also highlighted the challenges of balancing royal duties with celebrity status.
