Marie Claire magazine gets a lot of shade from Twitter users after posting an article about Meghan
Markle’s single gray hair.
On Thursday, the magazine
posted an article by Executive Editor Sally Holmes titled “Meghan Markle
Has A Single Gray Hair,” with a subhead reading, “And it’s magnificent.”
The article attempted to
praise the royal family’s soon-to-be member for daring to appear in public even though one of her hair is gray.
The piece also speculated on
the meaning behind that solitary strand:
“Who knows if Meghan Markle is
choosing to just own it, not waste time and money on such frequent upkeep,
or, just doesn’t notice because it’s ONE HAIR. But, either way, it’s nice to
see she’s a regular person with a few stray grays, just like everyone else!”
Holmes did not immediately
respond to HuffPost’s inquiry, so it’s difficult to ascertain whether her
article was a sincere attempt to praise Markle for managing to maintain an air
of self-confidence despite suffering the indignity of that one stray gray or a
desperate attempt at royal wedding clicks.
