Meghan Markle admits to 'embarrassing' habit that makes her sound 'less demanding'

Meghan Markle has admitted to an "embarrassing" habit she tells herself to stop doing in order to sound "less demanding".

In the latest episode of her Spotify podcast Archetypes, Meghan examines the trope of "the angry black woman" and is joined by comedians Issa Rae and Ziwe in discussing the issue. Introducing the episode’s theme, she said: "This idea that a black woman must be angry when we all know sometimes things make you feel angry or sad or hurt or upset and that’s not a gender or racially specific feeling. Yet this trope of the angry black woman, it persists, and… it was being reinforced constantly in ways we hadn’t even realised.”
