Meghan Markle has been branded a “low-grade reality star” as a US journalist claims the Duchess of Sussex regularly heads out in LA and leaves husband Harry at home with the kids.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex upped sticks and moved to a new life in Montecito, California after stepping down from royal life back in 2020.
Last month it was reported that Prince Harry and Meghan had stepped out near their home for a celebrity-laden dinner with Cameron Diaz and Gwyneth Paltrow, and other well-kent neighbours nearby include the likes of Oprah Winfrey and Ellen De Generes.
It’s led to one US podcaster slamming the former Suits actress for “trying to get places” by schmoozing big names.
In his latest podcast, Tim Dillon also slammed Harry and Meghan as being “low grade reality stars”.
He added: “All they want to do is hang out with celebrities.
“I was at a party the other night talking to somebody about these people and it’s just constant with them.
“She was texting the person I was with there.
“The point is they just won’t stop these two.
“They’re like low-grade reality stars trying to attach to anything.
“I’m literally at the party and they are showing me texts of this woman begging people to like ‘hang out’, she is trying to get places.”
But the New York comic also reckons that any plan of the Sussexes to become the toast of Tinseltown isn’t working very well.
He joked: “I respect the hustle I get what they are trying to do.
"A lot of people at this party were like we text her back, she’s a duchess, but we’ve had enough."
it’s not the first time that reality show stars have been linked to Harry and Meghan, as last week we reported that the Duke and Duchess are known as the “Kardashians” in some royal circles thanks to “their appetite for accepting awards for themselves, talking about themselves, doing programmes about themselves".
Earlier this month, US society journalist Petronella Wyatt claimed that Meghan has become a bit of a regular on the Hollywood party scene of late, but without Harry.
She tweeted: “Friends of mine who live near them are always bumping into Meghan at parties these days.
“She tends to leave Harry at home.”
The couple's relationship has attracted an array of media attention in recent weeks after it was claimed that they were going through a rocky time.
It's been alleged that the Duke of Sussex has a room in a hotel in California he stays at to get away from his family, however this has been furiously denied by spokespeople for the couple.
TalkTV presenter Jeremy Kyle and royal expert Charlie Rae discussed Prince Harry on Wednesday with the former ITV star making a jarring prediction about the future of the Sussexes.
He said: "The only way Harry and Meghan can make money is by slagging off the only thing they say they don't want to be part of.
`"Within five years that Ginger Whinger will be back in the country with his tail between his legs, and Meghan Markle will be sat in California with two kids having everything she ever wanted."
