Royal commentator and Meghan's former friend Lizzie Cundy has now slammed the pair for their pursuits at a time when the Royal Family is in the midst of a crisis. She has accused the Duchess of Sussex of "trying to relaunch herself as a Gwyneth Paltrow type", and claimed she is "not reading the room".
Talking to GBN America, she said: "They've got these new Netflix shows about making jam and cookery and gardening, and there Harry's about polo playing, it's not really relatable. I think it's pretty insensitive when Catherine's going through what she's going through and the King is going through his cancer issues too, it's really insensitive, to be honest."
