Royal Family News: YouTube Accounts Make a Tidy Profit
Ironically, Meghan Markle and her husband Prince Harry are outspoken critics of online activity. Meghan has even referred to users as being akin to “addicts.”
According to People magazine, data analytics service Bot Sentinel just released a report which shows that it pays to cover the so-called Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

“According to the report, a network of YouTube channels focused on … Meghan has over 497 million views and an estimated $3.48 million in total YouTube earnings combined. Just three of the top content creators — YankeeWally, MurkyMeg and According2taz — have a combined 70+ million views and an estimated $494,730 in total YouTube earnings.”

Apparently these three also cover Megs on Twitter which means blanket coverage of the runaway royal who has been dubbed Princess Pinocchio for, well, the obvious reason.

Meghan and Harry closed their @SussexRoyal Instagram account on March 30, 2020. This was one day before they made the big leap to America and commoner status. They stated they coveted, “financial freedom,” more than royal responsibility and clearly it pays to be associated with them even tangentially.
Nonetheless, the pair went on the Teenager Therapy podcast in October 2020, and Meghan claimed she was the, “most trolled person in the entire world,” in 2019.

Meghan said, “I don’t care if you’re 15 or you’re 25, if people are saying things about you that aren’t true, what that does to your mental and emotional health is so damaging.” We can’t argue with that. But we should point out that her claim to being Miss Most Trolled 2019 was called into question as are most of her hyperbolic statements.
Then, last year Prince Harry piled on the troll bandwagon to complain about, “a Rupert Murdoch newspaper.” Calling out media outlets by name is not targeting them? Anywho, Harry told Fast Company: “Ironically, we woke up one morning a couple of weeks ago to hear that a Rupert Murdoch newspaper said we were evidently quitting social media. That was ‘news’ to us, bearing in mind we have no social media to quit, nor have we for the past 10 months.” Tomat-o Tomat-oh.
