Patrick J. Adams, Meghan Markle’s co-star on the TV show To grab, has condemned the royal family as “obscene”, and the “racist, defamatory vitriol” of the media in a powerful series of tweets
Adams’ passionate defense of Meghan came after it was announced that Buckingham Palace had opened an investigation into allegations of bullying against the Duchess by former palace staff just days before Meghan’s much-hyped interview with Oprah Winfrey aired on CBS this Sunday night. In a statement, Meghan said the allegations were part of a “ calculated smear campaign. ”
Adams said it was “OBSCENE that the Royal Family, whose newest member is currently GROWING IN HER, is promoting and reinforcing the allegations of ‘bullying’ against a woman who was in fact herself forced to flee the UK to protect her family and her. own mental health.
“IMO, this latest chapter and its timing is just another stunning example of the shamelessness of an institution that has outlived its relevance, is far too low in credibility, and is seemingly bankrupt in decency.
Find someone else to admonish, swear and torment. My friend Meghan is way out of your reach. “
Adams added, “It made me sick to read the endless racist, defamatory, clickbaiting vitriol spewed in her direction by all kinds of media in the UK and the world, but I also knew Meghan was stronger than people realized or realized. understood and that they would regret underestimating her. “
Meghan “was an enthusiastic, kind, cooperative, loving, cheerful and supportive member of our television family,” said Adams. “She remained that person and colleague as she gained fame, prestige and power.” In recent years he had seen “with amazement” this “powerful woman with a deep sense of morality and a fierce work ethic” navigate life.
Adams wasn’t alone in expressing his commitment, as Meghan’s friends took to social media and highlighted what they see as Meghan’s excellent qualities as a friend and person. Producer and author Lindsay Roth said Meghan’s “MO has always been kindness; goodwill is in her bones. I know this is true after 22 years of very close friendship. ”
Her makeup artist Daniel Martin wrote, “Because she’s not self-centered, people can see the light in her. Because she does not boast of herself, she becomes a shining example. Because she does not glorify herself, she becomes a person of merit. Because it doesn’t want anything from the world, the world cannot overcome it. “
Her friends’ shining wills are in stark contrast to the allegations made by Jason Knauf, Meghan and Harry’s former palace communications chief, received in an email by The times from London, said Meghan had bullied former staff members, left some in tears and forced others from their jobs.
Assistants are reportedly lining up to testify in the now-announced investigation into bullying in the palace – which itself has received widespread criticism on social media, with many wondering why there is no similar investigation into Prince Andrew, who has yet to must cooperate with the FBI because of his friendship with the disgraced dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
In an early clip from Sunday night’s documentary, filmed before the bullying allegations were made public, Meghan accused the palace of “perpetuating falsehoods” about her and husband Prince Harry.
