‘Narcissistic, woke’: Meghan Markle’s podcast slammed with ‘one star’ ratingsMeghan Markle’s new podcast proves she has a “monstrous sense of self-entitlement” and is “craving victimhood,” says Sky News host Andrew Bolt. Meghan Markle has released her debut Spotify series, Archetypes, which features her “dear, dear friend” Serena Williams as the first guest. Mr Bolt said that “tragically for Markle” the new podcast “really does show the real her”. “To various critics who've actually listened to it, (the podcast) rates just one star,” he said. “And around the world, millions of the narcissistic woke who are her fans cry with her.” More of a sense of entitlement than prince Andrew? Or, more than William who not only wants to eat food, but have it poked up his butthole as well? God save the princeofpegging Watch how fast I don't give a shit. Wanna see me do it again? I honestly don't know why Sky News people would even CARE about this!! It's a podcast!! You don't HAVE to listen to it! Choose ones you enjoy! This is really scrapping the bottom of the barrel for news here!
