Meghan Markle likely knew she was in for a wild ride when she married into the British Royal Family. Other women who married royal men before her had to face all kinds of public criticism.
Even though Meghan was used to the media as a celebrity, the sheer amount of attention and controversial coverage she received was overwhelming.
Years ago, Prince Harry and Meghan decided to step back from their royal roles and move to the US. This decision had big consequences and led to a decline in their popularity, especially after they openly criticized the Royal Family they left behind.
Many remember their explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey, where Harry and Meghan made numerous accusations against the British royals. Then came their candid Netflix series and Harry’s memoir, Spare, in which he doubled down on previous claims and added new ones.
The rift between the Sussexes and the monarchy continues, and although Harry and Meghan once said they wanted a more private life, they still find themselves in the spotlight almost every week.
The 2024 ESPY Awards, held earlier this month, proved this once again. Both Harry and Meghan became hot topics simply for attending the event.
The annual American awards show took place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on July 11. Harry received the Pat Tillman Award for Service for his work with the Invictus Games.
However, it was Meghan who attracted the most attention, with many commenting on her seemingly altered appearance.
As soon as photos from the event appeared online, people started saying Meghan looked unusually skinny.
“She looks stressed… she skinny, bad PR… bad pic,” one person commented.
Another added, “Her arms are very thin! She should quit the Ozempic… I guess she needed to be invited to those ozempic parties her pals were throwing.”
A third person said, “[Is] She sick? Why so skinny? Thought she and her megamates loved her ‘thick.’”
A fourth opined, “Somebody is shooting ozempic.”
Others rushed to Meghan’s defense, pointing out that she has always been slender.
“Meghan looks fantastic,” one fan wrote.
“Meghan is a thin woman who looks fantastic. Stop with the nonsense,” another said.
“Here we go, why are people ready to bash her,” a third added.
