Meghan Markle is reportedly “frustrated” with one aspect of her MasterChef Australia appearance, as royal commentator Helena Chard broke it down on GB News. Speaking to anchor Alex Armstrong, Meghan’s “charade” was picked clean after she told the aspiring chefs to “call me Meghan” – three words that left fans fuming.
Chard said on the programme: “Honestly, the contradiction at the heart of Meghan Markle. She’s leaning on the Royal Family when she needs to or wants to, and tries to step away from it when she just wants to be myself and I. The latest example where she picks and chooses is MasterChef Australia! So she’s starred on that as a celebrity judge. She apparently is frustrated to be introduced as a royal.”
Armstrong cut in: “That’s got to be a load of rubbish! Doesn’t she have all her stationery with the Duchess of Sussex written on it?”
Chard said: “She’s previously been credited as Meghan, Duchess of Sussex so many times. We’ve seen, not so long ago, on With Love, Meghan and she always is referred to as the Duchess of Sussex.
“We actually even saw her use the HRH emblem that she is not supposed to use, as we know, it goes against the late Queen’s agreement when they stepped down.
“This whole thing about being frustrated, and she wants to concentrate on Meghan the lifestyle brand etc., but it’s the unspoken, always, that I find astounding. Obviously she’s known as Meghan Markle but known as royalty.

“Prince Harry pops up, obviously, and let’s be honest it’s a headline, isn’t it? The reason she got this position is the royal connection. The whole framing, as well, as a ‘dish fit for a duchess’. Goodness me, there would not be that headline if it wasn’t for the royal connections. It’s the unspoken, I think, that is important, in a way.”
She went on: “Slightly sidetracking, we’ve got the recent photos of their children at the late Princess Diana’s ancestral home, launched on the Instagram and all the socials, but clever, in a sense, because nothing is just a gamble.
“There are emotional ties there without using the titles. Without having to say anything, the royal history is very useful there.”
A fuming Armstrong commented: “That, to me, is the whole charade laid bare for you.”
