Meghan Markle Under Attack: Racist Remarks Left on Kensington Palace’s Instagram

Vile racist comments about Meaghan Markle were posted to the Kensington Palace’s official Instagram page. A few of the comments seemed to threaten the Duchess of Sussex. It was something that upset many of the followers of the Instagram account, stating that they need to “up the security for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.”

The Comments

On a video of Meghan and Prince Harry in New Zealand during their tour, a follower comments that “soon it will be me who is next to Harry and Megssy will be gone.” The poster posted six knife emojis after her offensive text. Many of the Kensington Palace’s followers took the comment to be a threat.

Another commenter claimed that Meghan bleaches her skin to look more white. She accused the Duchess of being “trashy” and “tacky.” Yet another poster chimed in and called her the “ghetto princess,” a clear racial slur.

The Palace Refuses to Take a Stand

While these comments have been posted for over a week, they remain on the Instagram page. The Kensington Palace has not removed or censored the page. Many of the seven million followers have begged the page to take down the offensive comments.

A lawyer argued that since the poster assumed that Meghan could or would read the comment that it could be considered hate speech and be a criminal matter. However, the Palace has yet to take a stand on the issue, one way or another.

One thing is certain, the comments have caused a divide within the royal fans. Many fear Meghan’s safety, while others feel she knew she would get this treatment when she married Prince Harry. Do you think Kensington Palace should take action?
