Royal commentator Lady Colin Campbell has reignited controversy surrounding Meghan Markle after claiming Buckingham Palace faces growing pressure over persistent “moonbump” conspiracy theories tied to the Duchess of Sussex’s pregnancies. The latest remarks have fueled another surge of debate across social media, royal discussion forums, and YouTube commentary channels.

The term “moonbump” refers to prosthetic pregnancy bellies commonly used in film and television productions. For several years, online conspiracy communities have falsely speculated that Meghan may have worn such devices during her pregnancies with Archie and Lilibet. Despite widespread online discussion, no credible evidence has ever emerged supporting the allegations, and mainstream media outlets continue to classify the claims as conspiracy theories rather than verified facts.
Lady C, a frequent royal commentator and author known for controversial opinions about the Sussexes, recently suggested there are unanswered public questions surrounding royal protocols and documentation connected to Meghan’s pregnancies. Her comments quickly spread across royal-focused online communities, where supporters and critics of the Duchess fiercely debated the issue once again.
Critics of Meghan argue that Buckingham Palace’s refusal to directly address conspiracy theories has allowed speculation to grow unchecked online. Some commentators claim palace officials are under increasing pressure from certain royal watchers demanding clearer responses regarding rumors surrounding Archie and Lilibet’s births.
However, supporters of Meghan and Prince Harry strongly reject the accusations, describing them as invasive, misogynistic, and rooted in online harassment campaigns targeting the Duchess since her marriage into the Royal Family. Media analysts have repeatedly warned that conspiracy-driven content often spreads rapidly because sensational royal stories attract massive engagement online regardless of factual accuracy.
