Meghan Markle’s Brand New Podcast Draws Criticism
Meghan Markle's new podcast, Archetypes, has drawn a lot of criticism, with many accusing her of being disconnected from reality.
For the second episode, Mariah Carey joined her to talk about the term “diva” and its good and bad meanings.
However, the conversation quickly turned to Meghan's alleged diva behavior and her strained relationship with her sister-in-law, Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge.
It's no secret that Meghan is considered a diva, and this was confirmed in Tom Bower's book.
She has been known to call people out for being racist when they criticize her, but what happens when the person throwing shade is one of the world's biggest pop stars?
According to reports, Mariah Carey called Meghan a diva during the podcast, which only added fuel to the fire.
Trending:
Meghan's alleged complaints about Catherine not going shopping with her have also caused speculation about their relationship.
Meghan reportedly wanted her heavily pregnant sister-in-law to take her shopping, despite the fact that Catherine had two children under the age of 10 and was working.
Meghan's jabs at the royals during the podcast suggest that Catherine was her intended target.
Australian columnist Justin Smith criticized Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, for being disconnected from reality while speaking on Sky News Australia.
He likened watching them discuss life to “watching two cats argue about what mice like.”
Smith couldn't relate to a single word they were saying and felt that the couple was out of touch with reality.
Veteran journalist Peter Ford also slammed Meghan for releasing the podcast just hours before the 25th anniversary of Princess Diana's death.
He questioned why she would schedule the interview for that day and suggested that she could have honored Diana's legacy by talking about the causes she supported instead.
Despite the criticism, Meghan's guests, including Serena Williams and Mariah Carey, are accomplished and talented women who have overcome challenges to achieve success.
Meghan, on the other hand, is known only because of who she married.
However, she doesn't let her guests talk and each podcast devolves into a self-referential snark fest against the royal family.
Meghan wasted once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to interview fabulous women, and her focus on herself has caused many to question her motives.
While her guests are far superior to her in terms of accomplishment, Meghan seems more interested in promoting herself than anything else.
In conclusion, Meghan Markle's brand new podcast has drawn a lot of criticism, with many accusing her of being disconnected from reality.
Her alleged diva behavior and strained relationship with Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, have also caused speculation about their relationship.
Despite having talented guests, Meghan's podcasts have devolved into self-referential snark fests against the royal family.
It remains to be seen whether Meghan will change her approach or continue down this path.
