Meghan Markle gets a hammering: ‘If she even stubbed a toe she’d say it was someone else's fault’

Published: May 12 2026

Meghan Markle has recently come under fire for her perceived lack of "grace" in comparison to Kate Middleton, who delayed announcing her cancer diagnosis to ensure her children were not at school when the news broke. Showbiz Reporter Fran Winston shared these thoughts in a piece for Express UK. According to Winston, Prince Harry shares a similar perspective, as they allegedly fail to grasp that "having one foot in and one foot out of that privileged world isn't endearing them to the public."

The author also emphasized how Meghan and Harry have repeatedly insisted that their children, Archie and Lilibet, be styled as Prince and Princess despite the fact that they are growing up in America and have no desire to share their lives with the public. This was further exemplified by Meghan's recent decision to post images of the children on a Disney trip with their faces hidden, which Winston viewed as a "ridiculous dichotomy" given her apparent aspiration for them to lead a public and royal life.

However, the conversation didn't end there. Winston also highlighted the vast difference between Meghan and Kate, given their status as private citizens before marrying into the Royal Family. "Yes, William and Catherine have security - as is proper for the future monarch and his family - yet they have always been family-oriented and down to earth, putting their children first in everything," Winston noted.

In contrast, Winston expressed doubt that Meghan or Harry would do the same. Indeed, Winston believes that if either of them were to experience even a minor setback, they would sell the story to Netflix to cry about it and blame others, all while pocketing the money for their tell-all.
