Radio host Charlie Kirk verbally attacked Meghan Markle and compared her to disgraced actor Jussie Smollet for her version of how the royal family reacted to baby Archie. Kirk said Monday Markle’s account was a feeble attempt to garner the public’s sympathy.
Kirk’s reference to Smollet may have been a little extreme seeing as how Smollet actually phoned in a fake hate crime hoax that prompted the Chicago Police to file multiple felony fraud charges against him.
“I think somebody said something, completely different, in a different category, and she is using it now to go make people feel sorry for her, “said Kirk.
A statement from Buckingham Palace on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II was released on Tuesday. It said, “The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan.”
Markle said that someone in the royal household raised “concerns” while she was pregnant about how dark Archie’s skin might be.
“All around this same time — we have in tandem the conversation of, ‘He won’t be given security, he’s not going to be given a title,’ and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born,” she said.
“Meghan, you are now allowing your feels — feelings — to dictate an accusation of a family that largely, by all evidence available, embraced you,” Kirk said.
