Rumors have been spreading on social media about Meghan Markle wearing a microphone during the Queen’s funeral for her upcoming Netflix special.
TikTok and Twitter users speculated that the creases in Meghan’s black dress indicated she was recording for a rumored reality TV show while paying tribute to the Queen.
According to YouTube channel The Royal Grift, Meghan was fully wired at the funeral, having learned from past experiences and upgraded her body wires to be less noticeable.
Some questioned why she was wearing a cape, suggesting it could be used to conceal a mic battery pack or receiver.
One Twitter user even asked if Meghan was using the Queen’s death for her Netflix show.
Angela Levin, the author of Camilla Parker-Bowles’ biography, faced criticism during a talk TV broadcast for retweeting a now-deleted tweet calling Meghan a spy.
Despite the controversy, Meghan appeared at Westminster Abbey in a black Stella McCartney cape dress, which she also owns in navy and previously wore to the Queen’s 92nd birthday celebrations in 2018.
She accessorized with pearl stud earrings gifted to her by the Queen in the same year.
However, a TikTok video with 22.7 million views suggested that Meghan had copied an outfit worn by Princess Diana for the Queen’s funeral.
The video showcased a slideshow of the royal family dressed in black, followed by Meghan’s arrival in a strikingly similar outfit to Diana’s.
This sparked further discussion and comparisons among viewers.
Criticism of Meghan’s appearance and outfit at the send-off of Her Majesty the Queen also emerged on Twitter.
Some users criticized her for showing her forearms, deeming it disrespectful.
One particular tweet by KMCCReady47 went viral, receiving 120,600 likes and 11,600 retweets at the time of writing.
The tweet expressed disapproval of Meghan’s outfit and garnered support from other users, including TDR1NKA.
In the wake of the Queen’s death, Meghan continues to face intense scrutiny and backlash in the UK.
Australian senator Holly Hughes openly criticized Meghan, calling her a horrible human with a negative influence on Prince Harry.
Hughes expressed her belief that Prince Harry would eventually regret his actions and hoped he would come to his senses and return to the UK.
The senator’s remarks were part of an extraordinarily scathing live TV rant.
Furthermore, Meghan’s new favorite magazine, The Cut, launched a vicious attack on King Charles, her father-in-law, accusing him of being a big fussy baby and mistreating his staff while grieving the loss of Queen Elizabeth II.
The magazine even suggested that Meghan Markle’s podcast was the cause of the Queen’s death.
Comedian Bill Maher also took a jab at Meghan’s Archetypes podcast.
Meghan Markle’s presence at the Queen’s funeral has sparked numerous discussions and controversies, from speculations about her microphone usage to allegations of copying Princess Diana’s outfit.
Despite the criticism she faced, Meghan remains a prominent figure in the media, continuously making headlines and attracting both supporters and detractors.
