Royalists are calling for Queen Elizabeth II to revoke the titles of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex following Meghan Markle’s appearance on The Ellen Show in the United States.
Meghan, 40, discussed her family life and promoted her new book, “The Bench,” during the talk show but faced backlash for participating in a prank segment that many believe mocked British royalty.
During her interview with veteran presenter Ellen DeGeneres, Meghan’s body language caught the attention of experts.
Body language analyst Julie James noted that Meghan giggled when referred to as the Duchess of Sussex and displayed a modest gesture by covering her face, indicating her true feelings about her royal title.
Ellen DeGeneres struggled to pronounce Meghan Markle’s official title, the Duchess of Sussex, leading her to make light-hearted jabs at the royal throughout the show.
The talk show host even engaged the studio audience in attempting to pronounce the title, turning it into a playful tongue twister during the hour-long program.
Despite Ellen’s repeated use of Meghan’s royal title, viewers noticed Meghan’s reaction to the emphasis placed on it during discussions about her book.
Social media users commented on Ellen’s humorous trolling, with one viewer tweeting, “LOL at Ellen trolling by repeatedly saying Duchess of Sussex over and over throughout the show.”
In addition to the title controversy, Meghan participated in a series of daring stunts orchestrated by Ellen during the interview.
From comedic shopping tasks to pretending to be a spiritual healing expert, Meghan entertained the audience with her willingness to engage in the playful challenges set by the talk show host.
One standout moment from the interview was Meghan’s revelation about a secret Halloween date she shared with her husband, Prince Harry, before their marriage.
Meghan disclosed that they had to keep their relationship discreet, sneaking out in Halloween costumes with friends, including Harry’s cousin Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack, for a night of fun before their romance was made public.
As discussions around Meghan’s appearance on The Ellen Show continue, supporters of the royal couple defend Meghan’s right to maintain her title as the Duchess of Sussex.
However, critics argue that her actions on the talk show have further fueled the ongoing debate surrounding the couple’s place within the British monarchy.
The controversy surrounding Meghan and Harry’s titles highlights the ongoing tensions between the couple and the traditional expectations of the royal family.
With calls for the Queen to intervene and strip the couple of their titles growing louder, the future of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex within the royal hierarchy remains uncertain.
Despite the mixed reactions to Meghan’s Ellen Show appearance, the Duchess continues to navigate the complexities of her public persona and royal responsibilities.
As the debate rages on, Meghan’s choices and actions will undoubtedly shape the narrative surrounding her place in the royal family and her relationship with the British public.
