Meghan Markle's "Female Founder" Claims

  • 💡 Meghan Markle is promoting herself as a "female founder" through her podcast, "Confessions of a Female Founder."
  • 🎯 She highlights milestones like Netflix partnering with her and her products selling out in 45 minutes, framing these as proof of her entrepreneurial success.
  • 🔍 Critics question the scale of her inventory, suggesting that selling out quickly might not indicate significant success if the initial stock was very low.

Criticism of Meghan's Business Ventures

  • 💰 Link Lauren and Megyn Kelly express skepticism about Meghan Markle's definition of "founding," suggesting she primarily found a wealthy husband and opportunities for high-profile interviews.
  • 🛍️ The products Meghan has promoted, such as jellies, jams, and dog biscuits, are described as low-quality, reminiscent of items sold at a child's bake sale.
  • 📉 The packaging for one product, a jam, is described as shoddy and pathetic, further undermining its perceived value.

Fashion Critique and Comparison

  • 👠 Meghan Markle is criticized for her fashion choices, with comments suggesting she often looks unkempt and that her clothing does not fit well.
  • 👖 She is described as wearing ill-fitting, billowing pants, contrasting with the impeccable style of Catherine, Princess of Wales, who is noted for using a steamer and tailor.
  • ⚠️ The implication is that despite a significant financial deal with Netflix, Meghan lacks basic styling or garment care, making her unqualified to comment on others' fashion.

Guest's Experience and Meghan's Remarks

  • 💬 During an interview, Meghan Markle reportedly made a subtle jab at her guest, Link Lauren, for wearing Birkenstocks.
  • 🤷 Lauren, who considers herself a founder of her podcast, was initially struck by Meghan's comment, though she defended her choice of footwear.
  • 🗣️ The discussion suggests Meghan Markle is in no position to offer fashion advice given her own perceived style missteps.
