British royal family news divulges that Meghan Markle’s Archetypes podcast on Spotify is winning her tons of detractors. Why? How about her fake voice, pity party attitude and Mockey accent? All of these things have been brought up as examples of Meghan not knowing how to fit in, now one royal watcher takes the criticism a step farther by claiming MM is using her platform to clap back at those who have accused her of being a bully.
The Mail on Sunday’s Assistant Editor Kate Mansey thinks that Meghan is harping on the theme of strong women being misunderstood as a way of slapping down her detractors.
Royal Family News – Meghan Markle Claps Back
For example, Meghan has said that the “B-word” is being used to “gaslight” women who know what they want. According to Mansey, “She claimed last week that ‘strong-minded women’ are branded ‘difficult’ because it is a codeword for ‘b**ch’ – and said that while ‘not everyone is going to like you, the goal can be for them to respect you.’”
Mansey thinks that this ongoing obsession with misunderstood assertive women, “could be a way for the Duchess,” to slap back at detractors.

Mansey said, “The immediate thing I thought about that podcast was…all the criticism that she’s had at The Palace and the accusations of bullying, which she’s always denied. Maybe this is almost kind of her talking about it….”
A formal investigation was launched into Meghan’s behavior at the palace after allegations of her bullying staff were made. Meghan’s response? That she is the victim of a, “calculated smear campaign based on misleading and harmful misinformation.”

Mansey points out that Meghan, “may have challenged those who commented on her behavior by discussing that she dislikes being branded ‘pushy’, and pointing out the sexism which can come with branding certain attitudes as bad when women perform them.”
The episode in question was coyly titled, ‘To ‘B’ or not to ‘B.’’ Get it? During the podcast Meghan said she dislikes the word “pushy” and that when people use the B word, “What these people are implying when they use that very charged word, is that this woman, ‘Oh, she’s difficult.’” Tell us royal fans, do you agree with Mansey, is Meghan actually talking about herself?
