Things About Meghan Markle's Marriage That Seem A Little Sad

Publish date: 2024-06-15

Meghan Markle has rarely given interviews after becoming a royal, so it's no surprise people hang on to her every word at public appearances. When the Duchess of Sussex attended the European premiere of The Lion King in July 2019, reporters paid close attention to her conversations with the cast. One such convo reportedly involved music producer Pharrell Williams. 

"So happy for your union. Love is amazing. It's wonderful. Don't ever take that for granted, but what it means in today's climate, I just wanted to tell you, it's so significant for so many of us. Seriously. It's significant. We cheer you guys on," he said, per ITV News. Markle thanked Pharrell, of course, but she didn't end the chat there. "They don't make it easy," she told him — a possible reference to the press and the public scrutinizing her every move. 

One Twitter user summed up the Duchess of Sussex's challenges in one tweet: "She's referring to the press and tabloids. The dog whistling, Piers Morgan verbally attacking her, and the nitpicking from commentators talking about 'breaking royal protocol' and let's not forget having to deal with threats and racist comments from trolls towards the couple." Let's hope things get a little easier for the royal rookie soon.
