The outspoken presenter, known for his long-running criticism of the Duchess of Sussex, reignited debate among royal fans and critics alike with comments that quickly spread across social media.
During the broadcast, Morgan questioned the timing and publicity surrounding the images, suggesting they were carefully designed to dominate headlines and shift attention back toward Meghan and Prince Harry. His remarks immediately triggered strong reactions online, with supporters of the Duchess accusing him of unfairly targeting her once again, while critics praised him for “saying what others are thinking.”
The controversy escalated after clips from the segment went viral within hours. Royal commentators claimed the discussion may have caused discomfort behind palace doors, particularly as the Royal Family continues efforts to avoid further public disputes involving the Sussexes. Some analysts believe senior royals are increasingly frustrated that media clashes involving Meghan and Harry continue overshadowing official royal engagements and charitable work.
Morgan argued during the program that celebrity appearances and high-profile fashion events are becoming central to Meghan’s public image in the United States. He also questioned whether such appearances align with the couple’s previous calls for privacy after stepping away from royal duties in 2020. The comments fueled another wave of online debate over the Sussexes’ relationship with fame and media attention.
Although Meghan Markle did not publicly respond to the televised criticism, her supporters defended her right to pursue independent projects and public appearances outside royal expectations. Many pointed out that celebrities attending events such as the Met Gala routinely attract major press coverage and scrutiny.
