Being a celebrity or a British royal means enduring constant scrutiny and gossip.
Being both,Meghan Markle has been the subject of rumors she just can’t escape.
A source who spoke toThe Hollywood Reporterreferred to her as “a dictator in high heels.”
Harry, they agreed, is a model of charm and politeness, though uncomfortable with Hollywood-style fame.
Meghan, on the other hand, comes off much worse.
Some of the duchess’s harshest critics are people who have worked with her on her various media ventures.
Her marriage to the famous ginger royal is apparently the real deal.
(So much for thosedivorce rumors, which Prince Harry has denied.)
“They are so hot for each other,” one mused.
Others see that haven as more of an ivory tower.
Residents of Montecito griped to the outlet about Harry and Meghan’s effect on their quiet community.
“It’s just finding every way she can to monetize something.”
The VF interviews were of course conducted long before the devastating California wildfires.
The Sussexes' own home was spared, but they have been financially and personally active in relief efforts.
This likely won’t change anyone’s opinion of Meghan, however.
