35+ of the Craziest Things That Megan Markle Was Criticized For

So much has changed since Wallis Simpson’s divorce nearly toppled the Royal Family. A divorced American woman was the reason King Edward VIII abdicated in 1936. In 2018, Harry also wed a US citizen who had previously been divorced. It wasn’t as obnoxious as some other examples, but it wasn’t a non-issue, either. The press informed us that Meghan had ended her first marriage by simply mailing her wedding ring to her soon-to-be ex-husband.

Indeed, the divorce wasn’t the only aspect of Meghan’s life that was examined closely. Even though it happened months before Meghan and Harry met and went nowhere, Meghan’s rumored chat with an X Factor winner made headlines.
