Meghan Markle’s Legal Battle: Australian Hosts React

Australian news hosts Karl Stefanovic and Alison Langdon were discussing the latest revelations from Meghan Markle's legal battle with Associated Newspapers on their show, Australia Today.

The court was told that she allowed a former aide to speak with royal biographers.

Daily Mirror royal editor Russell Myers was invited to discuss the situation on the show.

After reflecting on the story, Mr Stefanovic turned to Ms Langdon and said the whole story made him feel dirty.

Ms Langdon looked at him weirdly before trying to move on with her co-host stating he felt dirty about the whole story.

She said it was the weirdest thing he said on the show.

Later in the segment, Mr Myers was invited to discuss the story and said people had their jaws on the floor when the revelations against Meghan were made.

Mr Myers said it could be likely to see Markle vs Markle in the court if it goes to a full trial.

Mr Stefanovic then made another bizarre joke where he said it was like going into a laundromat because of the amount of dirty laundry being aired.

Mr Myers said the Sussexes were now in a sticky wicket and urged them to get their house in order before attacking their media for reporting on them.

As Meghan Markle has her dirty laundry aired out in public for the umpteenth time, in a legal fight with a Sunday newspaper, you have to wonder, in what rare moments of genuine privacy still available to her, whether she questions her decision to marry into royalty.

Sure, from a distance, it was a whirlwind romance with a prince, fit for a Disney movie, but the reality of her celebrity status since becoming entangled in the House of Windsor looks more like a tragedy than a fairy tale.

Thomas Markle, Meghan Markle's father, made a bombshell appearance on GB News when he took aim at his son-in-law once again.

His harsh comments came as host Dan Wooten asked him his thoughts on the term Megxit, referring to Harry and Meghan leaving the UK and the working royal family, and whether he thought it was sexist.

Thomas, 77, said, “No, I do not.

Once again, I refer to Harry's ignorance.

I don't know what happened, maybe he was dropped on his head as a baby, but the bottom line is everything that comes out of his mouth is always kind of stupid, so that gets me in trouble with them of course, but it's true.”

Taking things a step further, he went on, “Harry rides a bicycle every day where he lives every day, and I understand they're going to take the training wheels off soon.”

Dan then got a dig in of his own, as he said, “Well, he does need to grow up because if he was mature at all he would have spoken to you long ago like any grown man.”

It seems that Meghan Markle's legal battle has caused quite a stir, not only in the media but also among her family members.

Her father's comments on GB News have added fuel to the fire.

As for the Australian news hosts, their reactions to the story were quite bizarre.

Mr Stefanovic's comment about needing a shower after hearing the story was particularly strange.

It is unclear why he felt this way, but it certainly made for an awkward moment on the show.
