Meghan Markle Channels Princess Diana’s Style, Sparks Social Media Frenzy
The Duchess of Sussex recently shared snapshots of family time on Instagram, sporting a familiar look: a purple Northwestern University crewneck sweatshirt and black sunglasses. This ensemble echoed a similar outfit worn by Princess Diana during a 1996 Chicago visit, instantly drawing comparisons.
While Meghan has previously taken style cues from her late mother-in-law, this particular instance ignited a firestorm of criticism online. Some social media users accused the Duchess of seeking attention and attempting to emulate Diana, while others dismissed the fashion choice as “cringey” and “pathetic.” Several comments highlighted the belief that Meghan could never live up to Diana’s legacy.
This latest social media buzz comes on the heels of Meghan’s new Netflix series, which was recently pushed back to a March 4th release date. The series has also faced criticism, with some accusing it of lacking originality and drawing comparisons to Pamela Anderson’s cooking show. However, an inside source described the series as a lighthearted portrayal of Meghan’s personal life, emphasizing that it showcases her authentic self and passions.
