It seems Meghan Markle has been left red-faced after her friend Chrissy Teigen’s online bullying history undermined her latest CBS interview. So, Meghan Markle’s latest interview with Prince Harry on CBS, where they discussed their new initiative to combat cyberbullying, has hit a snag. Why? Because Chrissy Teigen, a friend of Meghan’s, has a controversial online history that’s now coming back to haunt them.
Chrissy Teigen, who received a jar of what was thought to be Meghan’s strawberry jam, once praised it on Instagram, saying it was one of the best things she had tasted all year. Despite this friendly gesture, Chrissy’s past actions have put Meghan in an awkward position.
Chrissy’s history includes some troubling online behavior. She has been accused of making offensive, transphobic remarks and bullying various individuals on social media. For instance, she allegedly made hurtful comments about Courtney Stodden and Lindsay Lohan, among others. Chrissy’s tweets from years ago included harsh and disrespectful comments that Meghan’s current anti-cyberbullying initiative aims to address.
To make matters worse, Chrissy’s past tweets included derogatory remarks about children and other offensive comments that contradict Meghan’s efforts to fight online harassment. Despite Chrissy’s later apology, which came a decade after the fact and only after the messages became public, the damage was done.
The backlash led to several brands, including Bloomingdale’s, dropping Chrissy. Nevertheless, Meghan and Chrissy remained friends, which now complicates Meghan’s public stance against cyberbullying. The contrast between Meghan’s efforts and Chrissy’s past behavior has made Meghan’s CBS interview look less credible.
So, do you think Meghan has been left red-faced by Chrissy Teigen’s online past? It certainly seems that way, as the friend’s history has cast a shadow over Meghan’s recent interview and her credibility.
