Meghan Markle faces fresh criticism for her alleged decision to distance herself from her former best friend, Jessica Mulroney.
Royal commentator Charlotte Griffiths took a sharp jab at the Duchess of Sussex, suggesting that Meghan has a pattern of severing ties with those who have supported her.
Griffiths highlighted Meghan's reputation for "unfriending" individuals, noting that the term "Markled" has even found its way into the Urban Dictionary. According to the slang website, to be "Markled" means to abandon someone or something after they've made a meaningful contribution to your life.
Meghan's relationship with Mulroney reportedly cooled in 2020 following a controversy involving the Canadian fashion designer and accusations of "white privilege" amid the Black Lives Matter movement.
Griffiths criticized Meghan for what she perceives as a calculated approach to friendships, suggesting that once Meghan no longer needs someone, she casts them aside without a second thought.
The commentator also questioned Meghan's ability to have amassed enough close connections to justify the recent launch of her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, particularly noting the skepticism surrounding Meghan's claim of having 50 friends to send jam to.
Griffiths drew parallels between Meghan's purported friendship dynamics and her guest list for her royal wedding, implying that Meghan may have extended invitations to individuals she barely knew, such as Oprah Winfrey.
The commentary adds to the ongoing scrutiny surrounding Meghan's relationships and her actions since stepping back from royal duties.
