Meghan Markle’s Mental Health Could Severely Be Affected By All The Bullying, Expert Says

Meghan Markle is said to be struggling with motherhood as she’s constantly being criticized for the things she does. A childcare expert said that the Duchess of Sussex’s mental health could be severely affected as she’s being bullied online.

According to Express, Angela Spencer, childcare expert and founder of Babyopathy, said that like other new mothers, Prince Harry’s wife may feel alone and disconnected from her family after giving birth. In Meghan’s case, she could be feeling worse because she’s also facing criticisms from the public. The expert said that the duchess is at risk of suffering from depression if the cyber-bullying continues.

Spencer further said that mothers are especially sensitive and fragile in the first few months after childbirth, so the duchess may easily be affected by things going on around her. Since she has been under a lot of pressure lately because of media reports and public condemnation, these may take a toll on her mental and physical wellness.

“Any celebrity who has a baby is ultimately a new mum,” Spencer said. “No matter how much help they might have, they may also be feeling totally alone and disconnected from their family support network and regardless of their status, every new mum needs support, help, advice and they should certainly never be berated by the press.”

Just recently, Meghan was mommy-shamed for the way she was holding Archie. Inside Edition reported that during Prince’s Harry’s polo match, the former “Suits” actress brought her 9-week-old son to the event, and the paparazzi took photos of her while she was holding her baby.

Some people who saw the pictures were shocked at the way Mehgan was carrying Archie. Some even commented that it looked as though she was about to drop Archie with the way she was carrying him.

The duchess’ parenting skill was then attacked by netizens, who accused her of not taking care of Archie properly. Others were baffled that she still can’t hold her child the right way when it has been two months since she gave birth.

“Why can’t she hold the baby properly after two months? It looks weird,” Express quoted one commenter as saying. “Clearly the nanny looks after him most of the time.”

Spencer pointed out that bashing and attacking Meghan’s motherhood on social media is very dangerous for the duchess. She explained that berating new mothers and bullying them through mean comments only shows the attacker’s lack of empathy and compassion, so they should be ashamed.

The childcare expert warned that if this continues, new mothers like the Duchess of Sussex could be pushed to committing suicide as their maternal mental health at this time is at its all-time low.
