### Meghan Markle Branded ‘Cheap, Vulgar, and Irresponsible’ by Outspoken Lady Colin Campbell
Meghan Markle has come under fire from Lady Colin Campbell, who called the Duchess of Sussex “cheap and vulgar” in a recent, heated interview. The 69-year-old writer, who is well-known for her three royals books, also advised Meghan to give up acting like a star.
### Sharp Rebukes
“She needs to stop acting like an A-lister because she was never one,” Campbell said in an interview with Closer magazine. Royals don’t act like the stars do. It is careless, ostentatious, and inexpensive. She went on to say that Meghan’s actions are disappointing her supporters.
### Previous Warnings
This isn’t the first time Campbell has voiced her concerns about Meghan’s actions. In April, she advised the Duchess to avoid political activism, emphasizing that “royals must represent all people” and suggesting Meghan should know when to “keep her mouth shut.” Campbell highlighted that many conservative and religious people globally do not share the “woke” and “right-on” views.
### Vogue Controversy
Meghan’s recent role as guest-editor of British Vogue’s September issue has also sparked controversy. Critics accused her of being “too political” with her selection of 15 women for the cover, whom she hailed as “forces for change.” This move was criticized for not aligning with the royal family’s tradition of remaining apolitical. Commentators, including Leo McKinstry and Brexit Party MEP Ann Widdecombe, echoed the sentiment that royals must keep out of politics.
### Broader Implications
Ingrid Seward, editor-in-chief of Majesty magazine, remarked that while Meghan has done a huge favor for Vogue’s publisher, Conde Nast, it has done less for the House of Windsor. The backlash over the Vogue cover highlights ongoing debates about Meghan’s understanding and adherence to royal protocols.
### The Queen’s Gesture
Amidst these controversies, reports have surfaced that the Queen may gift Meghan and Harry a holiday home, a gesture that has stirred further discussions in the royal news circuit. Despite the criticisms, Meghan’s actions and decisions continue to be closely scrutinized by both experts and the public.
### Conclusion
Lady Colin Campbell’s scathing remarks underscore the ongoing tensions and debates surrounding Meghan Markle’s role and behavior as a member of the royal family. As the Duchess navigates these criticisms, the world watches to see how she balances her celebrity status with royal expectations. Only time will tell how Meghan addresses these criticisms and expectations as a member of the royal family.
