Meghan Markle‘s PR team has been working overtime recently in an effort to rehabilitate her image and make her a more endearing public figure ahead of the launch of her lifestyle brand and Netflix cooking show.

While Prince Harry was globe-trotting trying to repair his reputation, the Duchess of Sussex was making a few appearances of her own. However, something Meghan reportedly said amid the bad press that she is a “dictator in high heels” and “demon boss” to work for, has made headlines and caused sources close to the former Suits star to walk her comments back.

Here’s more on that and why a couple of royal commentators say those “most bullied person” remarks aren’t accurate.

Source for Meghan denied duchess said she was the ‘most bullied person in the world’

On Oct. 2, Prince Harry’s wife stopped by Girls Inc. Following her visit, Larissa May, who is the founder of #HalfTheStory, shared with Vanity Fair details about Meghan’s open discussion on bullying. According to May, “We did an activity where we talked through a bunch of different scenarios, and Meghan talked about being one of the most bullied people in the world. We had girls wave these little emoji signs and talk about how each one of these scenarios would have impacted them emotionally.”

Sources close to the Duchess of Sussex later confirmed to the New York Post that Meghan “talked about her experience with online bullying, but never claimed she was the most bullied person in the world.”

Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield doesn’t think Larissa May would have any reason to lie about what Meghan said that day, and feels that if the duchess did make those comments at this time then she’s really giving a “masterclass in gaslighting.”

Speaking on her YouTube channel Schofield said: “Many will consider Meghan referring to herself as the most bullied person in the world while being a target of a Buckingham Palace bullying investigation or a Hollywood Reporter investigation, a masterclass in gaslighting. By continuing to draw attention to the concept of bullying she is only attracting more attention to her own bullying allegations.”

Fellow commentator Jennie Bond also weighed in on the topic of Meghan being the “most bullied person in the world” and insisted that the duchess is not the only woman who married into the royal family and was subjected to such abuse.

Bond told The Mirror: “I am truly sorry that Meghan was subjected to abuse and bullying during her pregnancies and beyond. No one should have to read disgusting abuse like that at any point in their lives. Sadly, though, Meghan is not alone in being bullied. Meghan is far from alone in being a victim of abuse. “

Bond pointed out how Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, was bullied by the press unmercifully about her weight after having a baby and even dubbed the Duchess of Pork. And more recently, the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) was subjected to gross online abuse and wild conspiracy theories regarding her whereabouts before she revealed that she had cancer.
