Meghan Markle is criticized for everything that she does. And she was slammed for not paying tribute to Queen Elizabeth on her podcast Archetypes. Royal fans know that the new episodes of Archetypes were recorded before Her Majesty's passed away, but some royal experts are saying that it wouldn't have hurt if she still found a way to honor Prince Harry's grandmother.
Royal Expert Slams Meghan Markle For Not Honoring Queen Elizabeth In Her Podcast
While speaking with Fox News Digital, royal expert Kinsey Schofield said that Queen Elizabeth did a lot of things and had so many contributions to Britain and the whole world when she was still alive. So, it would've been nicer if Meghan Markle remembered her for the things that she did.
"All Archetypes podcast episodes were recorded before the death of Queen Elizabeth II. Since Meghan's brand seems to highlight feminism and the podcast is about fighting misconceptions and labels on women that hold them back, it wouldn't have hurt to add a simple intro or goodbye thanking the Queen for her lifetime of service," she said.

Meghan Markle's Stance On Feminism Questioned
Schofield also pointed out that Markle's podcast focuses on feminism and the Queen paved the way for feminism to be practiced in Britain. The Queen was also known for performing her duties without relying on Prince Philip, so all the more should Markle pay tribute to her.
"You would think that Meghan would acknowledge her lifetime of service beyond 'putting a Variety magazine cover on hold' but who am I to judge? In general, it's hard for me to take Meghan seriously as a feminist when every opportunity that has been presented to her over the last five years is a direct result of the man that she married," she said.
Meghan Markle And Princess Diana Do Not Share Some Similarities
Schofield did not also shy away from saying that Markle doesn't compare to the late Princess Diana, even though some royal fans see similarities between the two women.
She said that Prince William and Prince Harry's late mother became a beloved figure because of her passion and empathy. She was photographed hugging AIDs patients, carrying children, and bonding with the poorest of the poor.
Markle, on the other hand, is hiring photographers to take her photos during her engagements.
"I see very little of Princess Diana in Meghan's latest efforts. What we loved about Diana was seeing her with people. Holding children. Laughing with the elderly. The empathy and compassion written all over her body. Diana wouldn't have taken photographers or a camera crew with her to Uvalde. Everything Meghan does seem superficial and lacks depth and warmth," she said.
This is not the first time that Schofield criticized Markle. Prior to the Queen's death, the royal expert accused the Duchess of Sussex of being fixated on what other people thought of her.
And just last week, Schofield also accused Markle of being obsessed with keeping details of Archie's birth a secret.
"It was not just Harry that was obsessed with keeping the details a secret. Meghan thought the entire ordeal was barbaric and did not want to participate. Meghan originally didn't even want to have the baby in a hospital. The Duchess wanted to do everything in secret at home but was told there could be too many complications since it was a geriatric pregnancy," she said (via Yahoo! News).
