Meghan Markle has been feeling down after facing criticism for her new business venture, American Riviera Orchard. Royal biographer Angela Levin shared insights on GB News, highlighting Meghan’s sensitivity to criticism and how it has impacted her.
Levin mentioned that Meghan is easily affected by criticism, leading to moments of sadness. This vulnerability has been evident since Meghan announced her new venture in March. Levin observed, “She’s been crying a lot. She’s absolutely, very low. She’s very thin-skinned. Anybody who criticises her, she goes mad. She can’t stand it. She can’t cope with it.”
Regarding Meghan’s potential interest in politics, Levin expressed skepticism due to her sensitivity to criticism. “I don’t think she’ll ever make it as a politician,” Levin remarked, noting the necessity of thick skin in politics.
Royal author Tom Quinn also commented on Meghan’s reaction to criticism. He mentioned Meghan being upset over the reception of her new brand, citing an incident where Meghan was reportedly in tears during its launch. Quinn emphasized Meghan’s belief that her efforts are unfairly scrutinized, leading to a sense of being targeted.
Meghan’s strategy to introduce her brand involved gifting 50 jars of strawberry jam to influencers across the United States. This move followed her return to Instagram, where she announced the brand’s launch. American Riviera Orchard is a nod to Meghan’s roots in Santa Barbara, California, drawing inspiration from the region’s nickname as the American Riviera.
