she reveals the unflattering nickname she inherited

Prince Harry’s wife is not reputed to be gentle as a lamb. Meghan Markle has never hidden it: she has character, what it takes to move forward in life without crushing others in her path. Since she and her husband walked away from the royal family, she has inherited several nicknames, some more flattering than others. If his neighbors in California call him “The Princess of Montecito”because of his escapades in this chic district of California, near Santa Barbara, King Charles III nicknamed the former actress “Tungsten” in reference to the inflexible metal of the same name. At first glance, this might be perceived as a pejorative namebut Harry’s father certainly wants to refer to the temperament and charisma of the young woman.

“Prince Charles admires Meghan for her strength and for the stability she represents to Harry. He needs a figure of this type in his life, he who tends to be a good dough. It has become a rather affectionate nickname for Meghan!”had thus explained a source to the DailyMail in 2018. Within her podcast Archetypes, Meghan Markle reacts for her part to the nickname she inherited from the members and staff of the palace at the time: “difficult duchess”.

Meghan Markle called “difficult duchess” : a polite way to insult him with a much worse nickname?

According to her, this term is often wrongly attributed to women “strong in spirit”. She would have inherited this nickname because of the e-mails sent early in the morning to her teams, as well as her “great demands” towards its staff. In the eyes of Meghan Markle, the word “hard” is a sneaky and devious way to use the term “Bitch” for slut in the French language. After a discussion on this subject with one of her friends, the wife of Prince Harry deduced that using this term to speak of a woman was a way “to deprive her of her power, to force her to stay in her place”. “The goal can’t be for everyone to like you, but the goal can be for them to respect you”she added to end the debate.
