British Royal Family News says that even though Meghan Markle has certainly been voicing her concerns about what has been going on in America now that she’s back home again with the Covid-19 pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement and the election, she won’t be getting political. Here’s what you need to know.
Even though the Duchess of Sussex has been encouraging people to get out and vote, there is a new report that suggests Prince Harry’s wife won’t be actively campaigning for the Biden-Harry ticket this fall.
British Royal Family News: Meghan Markle Refuses To Get Political
According to Vanity Fair, Meghan Markle conducted a meeting with renowned feminist and active Gloria Steinem this week. While the two ladies certainly did talk about the importance of getting out and vote, they did not support or back a candidate in any way. Even though Meghan has expressed her disdain for the current President of the United States, Donald Trump, she has refrained from expressing her political views, or at least, when in public.
This comes after actress and singer Bette Midler was forced to come to Meghan’s defense after British television personality Piers Morgan lashed out at the Duchess for encouraging people to vote. Piers says that Meghan should be stripped from her title after she broke protocol and the crown’s tradition of remaining silent during elections.
The 55-year-old said, “The Queen must strip the Sussexes of their titles. They can’t remain as royals & spout off about foreign elections in such a brazenly partisan way.”
It didn’t take very long for celebrities to come to the Duchess’ defense. One of them happened to be singer and actress Bette Midler, who wrote a simple “Oh, f**k off.”
Of course, it didn’t take very long for royal watchers, critics and fans to chime in on the controversy. While there were a lot of people who agreed with Piers Morgan, seeing how both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are still part of the royal family, others agreed with Bette by saying that the royals are in desperate need for a change.
