‘Nigeria Trip Is A Fake Royal Tour,’ Said Royal Commentator
A Royal Commentator spoke about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent trip to Nigeria. She branded the tour a ‘farce’ and said it was a fake royal tour. Charlotte Griffiths said that there was one event where Meghan changed halfway through.
She just rushed off to a side door to change, he added. The commentator mentioned that the Duchess of Sussex wore a £3000 dress in Nigeria, where there is so much poverty.
Furthermore, on the trip, Meghan explored her heritage. Many years ago, it was discovered through a genealogy test that the Suits alum was 43% Nigerian. As per Griffiths, although she expected Meghan to “hammer home” the point, she did not think the Duchess would do it so often.
Royal commentators have always been harsh about the Duchess. Previously, Angela Levin had said that Meghan was awful and rude during an interaction while on the trip.
