Ever since Meghan Markle officially joined the British royal family in 2018, she has been plagued with tons of allegations and controversies. But while she has kept herself composed since then, she recently admitted that it has been a huge struggle for her.
Based on the duchess' statements, trying to do her best to live a royal life has been "damaging" her internally. While hoping to get the empathy of the public, she has been slammed by the majority.
As the narrative develops, new reports emerged that Meghan Markle was unfairly criticized. But, this time, it's about her recent acts that have been noted as similar actions to what Kate Middleton does, all the time.
According to Business Insider, many are slamming Meghan Markle for certain things that she does as the Duchess of Sussex. However, the publication emphasized that these things were also done by Kate Middleton. But, instead of slamming her as well, fans and supporters praised her. Therefore, some are concluding that Meghan would not face any of these "double standards" if she's "white."
The publication reiterated and cited some examples of how it all happened. Previously, the Duchess of Sussex received an apparent backlash from the public when she wore a pair of wedge shoes.
As per assertions, this was a clear violation of a royal protocol. However, Kate Middleton received praise when she wore a similar style of pair months later.
Another incident was also cited in the article. As reported, Meghan was slammed for her constant "bump-holding" during her pregnancy. Naysayers called out the duchess for doing this every single time, especially when in public. Conversely, Kate Middleton was described as "glowing" upon touching her belly during her recent pregnancy.
These are only some of the instances when Meghan Markle was slammed for doing the things that Kate Middleton was praised for. The sources continued to cite more, proving that there is an apparent "racism" in the whole dynamic.
While these may be a good and valid argument, royal fans and supporters shared their thoughts about the controversy. In an online forum, where the public discusses most of their thoughts on certain issues, a lot of individuals agreed that Meghan Markle isn't "unfairly criticized."
As it happens, the duchess is always slammed by the public not because the public is biased over Kate Middleton. Rather, she is slammed for her "pretentious acts" that are either embarrassing or disgraceful for the British monarchy.
It was further noted that Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle are two different personalities. All the things that Kate does are said to benefit her husband, Prince William, as well as the crown. Unlike Meghan Markle, she is believed to just "whine" and "complain," and an individual who always wanted attention.
