EXCLUSIVE: After the Duchess of Sussex opened up about being 'one of the most bullied people in the world' a top royal expert has explained why Meghan is not alone in her experiences
The Duchess of Sussex's most recent engagement saw her join an empowering programme in Santa Barbara, California to encourage girls to improve their relationship with technology. While there, Meghan referred to herself as "one of the most bullied people in the world" as she spoke candidly about her experiences with bullying.
"No-one should have to read disgusting abuse like that at any point in their lives. Sadly, though, Meghan is not alone in being bullied. Remember the press abuse of Fergie as the Duchess of Pork? Remember the insults thrown at Catherine…”waity Katie”? She said: "We did an activity where we talked through a bunch of different scenarios, and Meghan talked about being one of the most bullied people in the world. We had girls wave these little emoji signs and talk about how each one of these scenarios would have impacted them emotionally."
At the SXSW festival in March this year, the Duchess revealed that she was subjected to "hateful" messages while pregnant with Archie and Lilibet. She had been invited to the Texas festival to discuss "breaking barriers and challenging stereotypes".
