In May, Meghan Markle’s trip to Uvalde, Texas stirred up a storm on social media.
Now, a Reddit user has shed more light on the behind-the-scenes events of that visit.
According to the Reddit post, the user had a conversation with one of the nurses who also went to Uvalde following the school shootings.
They discussed their experiences amidst the tragedy and the unexpected arrival of the “Markle Circus.”
The nurse expressed her skepticism about a BuzzFeed article that portrayed Meghan as a selfless helper in Uvalde.
She believed it was nothing more than a PR news release, filled with exaggerations.
The only truth, she claimed, was that Uvalde indeed experienced the presence of Meghan Markle.
While the nurse was on duty at Uvalde Memorial Hospital on May 27th, she heard rumors about Meghan’s arrival with her bodyguard photographer and the Netflix crew.
It was said that the royal visitor intended to help the children affected by the tragedy by taking photos and videos with them.
However, Texans, unlike Meghan’s spouse, were not hesitant to say no.
The Texas Highway Patrol, responsible for security at the hospital, escorted Meghan and her entourage out, suggesting that if she truly wanted to help, she should donate blood at the senior center.
Undeterred, the circus moved on to Robb Elementary, where Meghan posed for mourning photos.
Uvalde, being a close-knit community, found it disheartening to witness someone exploiting their pain for personal gain.
The nurse described Meghan’s actions as a way to “Markle” the people of Uvalde, using them as props for her own image.
The next stop for Meghan was the Herbie Hamm senior center, where she supposedly aimed to help.
However, instead of donating blood, she focused on capturing more photos.
The nurse revealed that Meghan tried to create an illusion of abundance by making it seem like she brought a variety of food.
In reality, all they had were three small vending machines, and the drinks and chips were provided by South Texas Blood for their donors.
Despite the circus-like atmosphere created by Meghan’s visit, at least she didn’t manage to take selfies with the injured and traumatized children and parents, the nurse concluded sarcastically.
It was evident that her intention was not to contribute but to personally profit from this tragic event, a behavior that is considered despicable and unconscionable by many.
The news of Meghan’s visit quickly spread, and people took to social media to express their outrage.
One user criticized her lack of class and accused her of using the tragedy as a mere photo opportunity.
Another angry Twitter user accused Meghan of always seeking self-publicity and suggested that she should prioritize visiting her seriously incapacitated father.
The unexpected nature of Meghan’s visit raised suspicions among some.
They questioned how every major media organization happened to be present to capture her laying flowers.
One user found it utterly disgusting that Meghan posed for photographs, possibly taken by her own photographer, and released them to the media.
While paying respects is acceptable, posing for photographs and publicizing them is seen as sickening.
This incident has brought Meghan Markle into the spotlight once again, but for all the wrong reasons.
The controversy surrounding her Uvalde visit has left many questioning her true intentions and sincerity.
As the dust settles, it remains to be seen how Meghan will respond to the backlash and whether she will learn from this experience.
