Meghan Markle Controversy: Prince Harry's Wife Doesn't Need The Love Of Others

Prince Harry might have openly announced that “What Meghan Wants, Meghan Gets." But, fans from globe over don’t think Meghan is likely to get whatever she wants, especially if it’s about “people listening to her” as that is what the Duchess of Sussex expressed in one of her recent interviews with The Telegraph’s Bryony Gordon. Throwing in a bit of context, barely a couple of weeks post her revelations on the explosive ITV documentary, which gave viewers a glimpse into her life and struggles with being in the royal spotlight.

Meghan Markle said she’s not seeking people’s affection and “doesn’t want people to love her — she just wants them to be able to hear her.” Unsurprisingly, the internet wasn’t amused at all.

“Who in the hell does Meghan think she is? Why should people listen to her?” Quora user Claire Chase said. “Listen to her say what? I still can't figure out where she is headed in most of her speeches. She constantly repeats the same stories (I was a feminist at age 11) that have nothing to do with the event she is attending or her target audience. She talks about women getting an education but she never even tried to pursue a career to use her expensive education and coveted college degree. She talks about women being empowered but she has only been living on her own since she was 30,” Chase added.

Thinking along similar lines, another user matched her speech to obnoxious claims. “Her speeches kind of remind me of the way Yogi Berra talked,” Terri Locke wrote. "Google him if you don’t know who he was. Most people had a hard time understanding him also. Sometimes it was just hilarious to listen to him,” she added.

There were several others who also believed that the Duchess had to work on her statements, in order to avoid being ridiculed. “Obviously she has declined any form of assistance with speech writing (which I'm sure the RF has a whole department of extraordinaires in this field),” Janice Wee said. “It's not that she’s not clever, I'm sure she is an intelligent person. She’s just too headstrong, maybe due to being a little immature and perhaps she was at some point made to believe (through her own inner voice or an individual) that she was going to make a name in the RF,” Wee added.

Meghan Markle, who’s clearly not afraid of going against the flow, also expressed her desire to distance herself from the royal protocol during formal engagements and outings. “One of the things I have realized since being here is that people have an expectation when I’m coming somewhere, so I’m like, let’s just be really relaxed, keep everyone nice and chilled because at the end of the day we’re all just women. We all have a story to tell, and I feel honored that I am getting to hear yours,” the Duchess said in a speech at Luminary Bakery, which trains and employs disadvantaged women.

At another royal appearance last month, Meghan Markle turned down a curtsy in favor of a warm hug. “While although Meghan was initially greeted with a curtsy, which would have been a respectful way to greet a member of the royal family in this situation, it’s clear Meghan was trying to show warmth through her offer to hug as a greeting,” Myka Meier, author of "Modern Etiquette Made Easy," said to a leading publication, dropping hints at how Meghan’s well on her way to write her own rules and live by them.
