Deluded Meg thinks she's a trailblazer, but she's a hot girl who bagged Prince – why doesn't she embrace it? says expert
MEGHAN Markle "wants to be something that she really isn't" through her trailblazing projects, a royal expert has claimed.
Journalist and commentator Esther Krakue said Meghan should embrace being a "hot" woman who married a Prince - instead of broadcasting her "particularly niche view of the world".

Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, Esther touched upon Meghan's appearance on the The Jamie Kern Lima Show podcast.
In it, the duchess said that if she had to write a resume, she would not know what to call herself.
Esther said: "She has also never had to write a resume, let's be honest."
She told The Sun's Royal Editor, Matt Wilkinson: "I think the lens through which she views the world is very peculiar.
"I just think this, her trying to posit herself as a champion of women and trying to shoehorn this particularly niche view of the world into something that's a bit more nuanced and complicated.
"It's just like, you don't need to do that.
"You're hot. You married a prince.
"Give us the tea. That's all we need from her."
The London-based broadcaster and columnist cited the various projects Meghan has been pursuing "arguably not done very well".
Esther added: "She doesn't see it the way that most of the world is, which is she has a very rich husband.
"What she's doing is low risk."
Meghan has more recently been focusing on her own businesses with her new podcast Archetypes and recent Netflix show, With Love.
Esther continued: "I don't even want to feel like we're beating down on everything she does.
"I wish her every success, but I feel sad that she feels the need to be this thing that she's clearly not.
"She's not a chemist. She's not a physicist.
"And that's fine.
"Sometimes it's OK to just be pretty and to have good fortune in life and to ride that wave."

Anti-Brexit newspaper changes name to reflect ‘reality' of global politics
The New European, a 'Remainer' magazine launched in response to the Brexit referendum, is being renamed to reflect the changing picture of global politics. The rebrand to The New World is a nod to the 'the global unravelling' which started with Britain leaving the EU but is now being seen worldwide in countries such as the US, according to founder and editor in chief Matt Kelly. 'The New European was conceived as a pop-up provocation; a defiant middle finger to the rising tide of right wing populism that brought us Brexit,' said Mr Kelly. 'Nine years later, the world and The New European has changed dramatically. This is a reflection of that new reality. 'We know there is enormous appetite for our style of journalism - vibrant, constructive, witty and full of ideas and great reads that make sense of this extraordinary moment in world politics and culture.' The New European, which has published more than 400 editions, had 35,000 paying subscribers and claim revenues have trebled since the business moved independent three years ago. Tony Blair's former spin doctor Alastair Campbell, who is editor-at-large of The New European newspaper, said themes that underpinned Brexit are playing out around the world, including a political shift to the right in many nations. 'We're always going to be very passionately anti-Brexit, very pro internationalism, liberal democracy,' said Mr Campbell. 'When we started the paper, you could never have predicted [where we are]. Just to look at United States alone. You wouldn't have predicted that Ukraine and Russia were going to be fighting a war on the edge of Europe. Lots has happened - it's a reflection of that.' Mr Campbell said he will 'never resile from the view that Brexit is the biggest act of self harm that we've inflicted upon ourselves', but added: 'I'm hoping this will be the next chapter of a story that we're going to keep telling, which is that liberal democracy is the way forward, that nationalism is not the answer to the challenges that we face, that populism is doomed to fail, and there's a better way that involves people with an optimistic, internationalist outlook.' New contributing editors slated to join The New World include Sonia Sodha, formerly of The Observer, The Revenge of Power author Moises Naim and Tom Baldwin, Keir Starmer's biographer and former senior advisor to Labour.

Since it began in 2013, Fun Palaces has attracted more than 880,000 participants and has become a movement celebrating creativity through hands-on activities in public spaces. In 2024, more than 1,800 organisers delivered over 140 events, reaching an audience of more than 60,000 people.

"Signing up to make a Fun Palace, whether it's big and buzzing or tiny and tucked away, means organisations can be part of a shared weekend of joy, connection, and culture across the UK and beyond." This year introduces Tiny Fun Palaces, designed to support smaller, more personal gatherings alongside larger public events. Amie said: "The introduction of Tiny Fun Palaces is just one of the new features we've set up to expand the ways people can take part. "Offering more options for those who prefer smaller gatherings, need to stay closer to home, or simply want a different kind of experience." Fun Palaces can take many forms, from stage combat in a library to DIY hovercrafts at an arts centre, crafts in a town hall, or historical re-enactments at a society. The campaign aims to provide communities with an opportunity to express local talent and curiosity. Zab Iftikhar, who organises Fun Palaces at Lancashire Archives, said: 'We've been a daunting building for many years and we just wanted to open our doors to the local community and get them to see what we have to offer. "It's put us on the map.'

"There's no pressure to make it grand or perfect; simply making it happen is a success. "If your organisation is thinking about creating a Fun Palace, don't hold back. "However small the event, it matters – be part of something brilliant." Event registration is open until and throughout the Fun Palaces weekend, giving both new and returning organisers plenty of time to get involved.

EXCLUSIVE What Meghan's neighbors are all brutally laughing about behind her back... revealed to KENNEDY by her Montecito mole
Blimey! A new opinion poll is a wake-up call for The Sovereign of Santa Barbara, the Viscountess of Montecito, Me-Me-Meghan Markle. A survey of American adults found that a meager 41 percent of Meghan's countrymen hold a positive opinion of the Duchess of Do-overs – as she seems to careen from one failed post-Megxit career relaunch to the next.
