Meghan Markle candidly spoke to teenagers in Santa Barbara, California, about her experiences with being bullied online at a digital wellness event, which has not gone down well with critics.

Speaking on her YouTube channel, royal commentator, Kinsey Schofield said: “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.”

She added: “By continuing to draw attention to the concept of bullying she is only attracting more attention to her own bullying allegations.”

On October 2, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, visited Girls Inc and the co-founder of the advocacy group said: “We did an activity where we talked through a bunch of scenarios, and Meghan talked about being one of the most bullied people in the world.”

Sources, however, confirmed to the New York Post that the Duchess of Sussex “talked about her experience with online bullying but never claimed she was the most bullied person in the world.”

Allegations of bullying first emerged in 2018 and included claims Meghan drove out personal assistants, both the Duchess of Sussex and her husband Prince Harry have always denied these claims.
