Meghan Markle Accused of Offering a “Masterclass in Gaslighting” Amid Bullying Allegations

Meghan Markle has come under fire once again, this time accused of delivering what one royal commentator describes as a “masterclass in gaslighting.” Royal expert Kinsey Schofield made these claims in a candid video on her personal YouTube channel, where she critiqued the Duchess of Sussex’s recent actions.

Schofield’s comments center around Meghan’s recent appearance at Girls Inc., where the Duchess discussed her experiences with bullying. During the event, Meghan reportedly spoke to children about being one of the most bullied individuals in the world. Larissa May, founder of #HalfTheStory, shared details about Meghan’s conversation with Vanity Fair, explaining that Meghan had encouraged the young girls to reflect on how different emotional scenarios, represented by emoji signs, would affect them.

In Schofield’s eyes, Meghan’s remarks seemed particularly tone-deaf, given her own history with bullying allegations. “Many will consider Meghan referring to herself as the most bullied person in the world while being a target of a Buckingham Palace bullying investigation or a Hollywood Reporter investigation, a masterclass in gaslighting,” Schofield asserted.

Schofield went on to suggest that by focusing on the topic of bullying, Meghan is inadvertently drawing more attention to the allegations against her. “By continuing to draw attention to the concept of bullying, she is only attracting more attention to her own bullying allegations,” Schofield added before concluding her video.

These accusations against Meghan come at a time when Prince Harry has been making headlines with his solo appearances in the U.S., U.K., and South Africa, further fueling speculation about the couple’s evolving public image. While Harry’s solo outings have garnered attention, Meghan’s recent engagements have sparked criticism, with some commentators questioning her authenticity and approach to sensitive issues like bullying.

The bullying allegations against Meghan date back to her time as a working royal. In March 2021, Buckingham Palace launched an investigation after staff members accused her of creating a toxic work environment. Meghan has consistently denied these allegations, labeling them as part of a smear campaign. Despite this, the controversy continues to follow her, particularly as she speaks on topics related to bullying and mental health.

Schofield’s harsh critique underscores the challenges Meghan faces as she navigates public life post-royalty. While some praise her for addressing difficult topics, others remain skeptical, interpreting her actions through a more critical lens. The ongoing bullying allegations, combined with her public remarks, make for a complex and controversial narrative that continues to evolve.
