Did Tyler Perry just get really angry with Meghan Markle in a recent interview? Well, it sure seemed like it!
According to The Daily Mail, Tyler Perry gave a frosty response when asked about lending his Los Angeles home to Meghan and Harry back in 2020. You may remember that when the couple first moved to the U.S., they stayed at one of Tyler Perry’s multi-million-dollar estates. In fact, at the time, neither Tyler nor Meghan had met each other, but now they are close friends—and Tyler is even the godfather of their daughter, Lilibet.
During a recent interview with The Sunday Times, Tyler Perry was asked about how he helped Meghan and Harry adjust to life in America, and his response was, to say the least, cold. When asked about lending his home to them, he shot back with, “I didn’t.” The interview quickly turned tense, and it was clear that Tyler wasn’t happy discussing Meghan at all.
But why was he so irritated? Let’s try to piece together some clues. When asked about helping Meghan and Harry prepare for their move, Tyler Perry dismissed the question by saying, "Meghan is from California. She knows California well. There was nothing to prepare them for." However, when the interviewer pointed out that the media’s interest in Meghan and Harry is huge, Tyler Perry responded by saying, “I don’t pay attention to the media.” But here’s the thing—if he doesn’t pay attention to the media, how would he know about the “insatiable appetite” for news about the couple?
As the interview progressed, the tension grew. The conversation became even more prickly when Tyler fired back with another sharp response, saying, "You’re from the UK, you tell me." The interviewer tried to push back, saying the same level of media interest exists in the U.S., but Tyler Perry was having none of it. The conversation clearly reached a breaking point, and it was time to wrap up.
Now, some people are questioning why Tyler Perry was so defensive about Meghan. Could it be that he’s angry with her? After all, he’s been one of her biggest supporters, even becoming the godfather to her daughter, but something seems off. Could the anger stem from personal issues with Meghan, or is he just tired of being asked about her?
One example that might add some fuel to the fire occurred at the recent Palyon Gala, an event where Tyler Perry was honored. You’d think that if he and Meghan were such good friends, she would have been sitting next to him at the gala, right? But when you look at the seating chart, Meghan’s name wasn’t even on the fan next to his, while his name was clearly visible on the fan beside him. This suggests that Meghan wasn’t even seated at his table. In fact, some fans believe this indicates that Tyler didn’t want her sitting near him at all.
Then, there’s the issue of the stage at the event. While Oprah Winfrey and Kerry Washington were seen supporting Tyler Perry on stage, Meghan was nowhere to be found. Why wasn’t she standing by his side during such a significant moment? Was this another sign that Tyler Perry is distancing himself from Meghan Markle?
These clues are starting to paint a picture of someone who may be frustrated or even angry with Meghan. Tyler Perry's response in the interview seemed to hint at more than just discomfort with the questions. He might be harboring deeper feelings about Meghan herself.
So, what do you think? Is Tyler Perry genuinely angry with Meghan Markle, or was it just a simple case of him being annoyed with the constant media attention?
