Megyn Kelly has taken aim at Meghan Markle, branding her a “malignant narcissist” following the Duchess of Sussex’s recent podcast appearance. The sharp critique came during a recent episode of The Megyn Kelly Show, where Kelly, alongside Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, dissected Markle’s interview with Jamie Kern Lima on the Confessions of a Female Founder podcast.

The episode, which focused on Markle’s business ventures and personal challenges, has sparked controversy, with Kelly accusing Markle of marrying Prince Harry for money and orchestrating her royal journey from the outset.

Markle’s interview, released earlier that week, stirred controversy for her continued use of the HRH title despite stepping back from royal duties in 2020. Kelly called the episode “bizarre,” pointing to Markle’s complaints about the challenges of balancing her entrepreneurial work with motherhood and personal life.

“She is a malignant narcissist who cannot get enough of herself while simultaneously playing the victim,” Kelly stated, highlighting what she sees as Markle’s lack of self-awareness. She criticized Markle’s claim of working hard on her new business, saying, “The head start that you have, and then to complain about working hard? It’s like, you’re in the royal family!“

Kelly’s brutal Meghan critique: ‘She’s always whining!’

Kelly also questioned Markle’s authenticity during the podcast, doubting her assertion of appearing makeup-free. “She had the hair blown out. It was perfect. I do not believe that she was makeup-free there,” Kelly remarked, suggesting Markle’s polished look contradicted her narrative.

Portnoy echoed Kelly’s sentiments, with the duo mocking Markle’s “woe-is-me schtick” and her complaints about royal life, including her frustration over not being allowed to use her HRH title freely. “She never stops whining,” Kelly added, referencing Markle’s comments about her “small castle” and the Queen’s treatment of her.

The podcast episode also drew attention for Markle’s Valentine’s Day Instagram post with Prince Harry, which Kelly dismissed as part of her victim narrative. Kelly’s broader critique framed Markle’s marriage as a calculated move. “She married for money… planned from the beginning,” she claimed, casting doubt on Markle’s earlier statement that she knew little about Harry before meeting him due to her American background. The remarks have sparked heated discussions online, with X users divided-some agreeing with Kelly’s take, while others defend Markle’s entrepreneurial efforts and personal growth.
