Meghan Markle is being called out by royal fans for saying she was forced to “get spray tans” while working on “Deal or No Deal”.
Speaking on the latest episode of her podcast Archetypes, Meghan said, “She was “treated like a bimbo and objectified on “Deal or No Deal”.
Several royal family supporters and commentators shared her pictures from an award show where she, they thought wore bold outfits without being forced by anyone.
Meghan and Harry fell out of favor with the royal family and millions of supporters after they stepped down from their royal duties.
The couple moved to California with their two children.
Meanwhile. A former Deal or No Deal model isn’t on board with Meghan Markle’s recent comments about feeling “objectified” as a briefcase-opening cast member on the popular game show.
“I have read Meghan’s comments about being treated like a ‘bimbo’ while working on Deal or No Deal, but I have to disagree with what is being said,” Donna Feldman said in a new interview with Hollywood Life. “During my time on the show, neither myself nor anybody else I worked with was ever treated as such, in my opinion. However, it’s important to note that everyone has their own experience, and I can only speak from mine.”
The recurring Oval actress stressed that “everybody knows what you’re signing up for when you’re hired as a ‘Briefcase Beauty,'” and said that “being hired based off your looks comes with the territory” of the show.
“If you’re proactive with your career, then you make the most of it and grow your résumé from there,” she continued. “Although I’ve received numerous opportunities based on my looks, it’s my intellect, my personality, and strong work ethic that contribute to me getting hired on a regular basis.”
On the latest episode of her Archetypes With Meghan podcast, the Duchess of Sussex — who took the Deal or No Deal season 2 job as an early gig in Hollywood before joining the cast of Suits in 2011 — reflected on the part, admitting that she felt uneasy with her stint on the series.
“I would end up leaving with this pit in my stomach knowing that I was so much more than what was being objectified on the stage,” the 41-year-old said. “I didn’t like feeling forced to be all looks and little substance. And that’s how it felt for me at the time: being reduced to this specific archetype.”
