Meghan Markle’s Mother Criticizes U.K. Press in Viral Clip

A viral TikTok clip from Meghan Markle's 2022 Netflix series 'Harry & Meghan' features her mother, Doria Ragland, recounting how a UK journalist offered her money for stories about Meghan, which she firmly declined, highlighting the contrasting media portrayals of Meghan's family sides. The clip underscores ongoing accusations of racism and bias in British media, particularly how Meghan's Black maternal family has been treated differently compared to her White paternal side. Meanwhile, Meghan's popularity in the US and UK has notably declined, with a recent YouGov poll showing only 41% of Americans holding a favorable view of her, and sources close to her suggesting she struggles to understand the reasons behind this drop. Meghan has also faced criticism for discussing her experiences as a working mother despite having professional help, which some view as out of touch with the realities faced by most working parents. Additionally, Meghan faced backlash for sharing a casual video of Prince Harry shirtless playing with their son, which royal fans deemed unflattering and questioned her motives. These incidents collectively illustrate the intense scrutiny and polarized public perception Meghan Markle continues to face both in the media and among the public.
