Meghan Markle branded a ‘manipulative bully who got found out’

Zac Goldsmith's brother has weighed in - finally, the opinion we're after

Financier Ben Goldsmith has claimed that people dislike Meghan Markle because she is a "manipulative bully." Goldsmith - who is the brother of member of the House of Lords, Zac - made a series of baseless allegations against the Duchess of Sussex in response to claims that she had been the victim of racism. He clearly regretted one of his tweets, as this has since been deleted according to the Mail, but the one labelling her a "manipulative bully who got found out" is still up on his account. In the tweet, the financier said: "We are far from perfect, but poll after poll shows British people to be among the most welcoming and the least racist anywhere.

"At the start Meghan was adored. Crowds thronged the streets at the wedding. Meghan is disliked because she is a manipulative bully who got found out."

The tweets are the latest attack the duchess has faced during her time in the UK for the Queen's funeral. Earlier this week, the royal was accused of 'faking tears' at the Queen's funeral. Meanwhile, Vanessa Feltz accused royal biographer Angela Levin of "fuelling" spiteful and targeted criticism of Markle after Levin claimed the duchess was "not fit" to be part of the Royal Family. And, of course, Piers Morgan has been vocal in his criticism of her from the moment her and her husband landed in the UK earlier this month. Speculation has been rife about the state of the relationship between Harry and his family as well, with everyone guessing about how him and his brother are getting along. Markle is said to have requested a meeting with King Charles III to heal any rifts between the two before her and Harry return to the US. Related links:
