Meghan Markle has been slammed for her “cringey” latest move after a “ludicrous” comment about not being allowed to be as vocal as she would have liked or always having to wear nude pantyhose. In a video interview published Tuesday, the same day that the second series of With Love, Meghan was released, the 44-year-old told Bloomberg Originals that royal protocol “felt a little inauthentic” to her when she was a senior royal.

She added: “But that’s a silly example. But it is an example of when you’re able to dress the way you want to dress, and you’re able to say the things that are true, and you’re able to show up in the space really organically and authentically, that’s being comfortable in your own skin.”

In response to her comment, royal expert Kinsey Schofield has slammed the former working royal for her “ludicrous” comment. She told Fox News Digital: “I thought Meghan’s anecdote about pantyhose was ludicrous. In a story meant to remind us of how suffocating being a very brief member of the Royal Family was, Meghan tells the host, ‘I hadn’t seen pantyhose since movies in the ’80s when they came in the little egg.’ That felt a little bit ‘inauthentic’.”
