As a former cast member of The Real Housewives of New York City, Bethenny Frankel, aged 52, revealed that she often discusses the Duke and Duchess of Sussex because she believes they are in the right. However, the events of the car chase have given her pause for contemplation. She expressed her disbelief at the things she reads in the news and what people are saying.
In her message to Meghan Markle, who is known for her role in the TV series Suits and is 41 years old, Frankel suggested that she should consider joining the Housewives franchise.
Frankel advised Markle to embrace the role of a Housewife, become infamous, and engage with her fan base. According to Frankel, things have not been going well for Markle as she seems to have alienated her fans.
Frankel also shared that her opinion of Meghan has changed since she and Prince Harry stepped down from their senior royal roles in 2020. Initially, Frankel was a supporter of Meghan, excited about a "woman of the people" marrying into royalty. She even watched their wedding.
However, her perspective shifted after the couple's tell-all interview in 2021, which drew significant controversy and negative attention. Frankel revealed that she faced backlash and lost business deals as a result, coming close to being canceled. Now, as the recent car chase incident unfolds, she finds it hard to believe that such events are actually happening.
On Tuesday, May 16th, 2023, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, accompanied by Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland, reportedly engaged in a two-hour-long car chase with highly aggressive paparazzi. They were heading back to a friend's private residence at the time.
