In a recent entertaining segment on Popcorn Palace, hosts Andy Signor and Tez took a deep dive into an old video of Meghan Markle from October 2015.
The clip has resurfaced, much to the delight of royal watchers and gossip enthusiasts alike.
The duo revisited Meghan’s responses to a series of questions that now seem almost laughably insincere given what we know about her life today.
The conversation kicked off with a nod to the past, as Tez reminded viewers that while Meghan hadn’t yet met Prince Harry at that time, rumors circulated about her interest in him.
This particular video was filmed around the time of a Soho House event in Istanbul, where Meghan mingled with celebrities like Eddie Redmayne.
Tez speculated that even then, Meghan might have had her sights set on Harry, hinting at her well-known penchant for strategic networking.
As they dissected the interview, the hosts couldn’t help but comment on Meghan’s knack for crafting a carefully curated image.
Tez praised her organizational skills, suggesting that Meghan’s “master plan” was already in motion.
It was a playful jab, but it highlighted a serious point: Meghan is often seen as someone who meticulously plots her career moves.
The first question posed to Meghan was about her go-to pick-me-up song.
Her answer?
A Nina Simone track that she claimed was so random, it felt rehearsed.
Andy and Tez both expressed skepticism, with Andy quipping that Meghan’s over-the-top delivery made it hard to believe anything she said.
The duo rated her honesty on a cringe scale, marking the moment as a classic example of Meghan’s tendency to embellish.
Next up was her beauty rule—drink lots of water—a response that left them both unimpressed.
They found it amusing that Meghan would offer such a generic tip, especially in the context of a beauty-focused question.
It felt more like a cliché than genuine advice, further fueling their critique of her authenticity.
When asked about her last vacation, Meghan mentioned Turks and Caicos, which raised eyebrows.
Tez speculated whether she had been on a yacht during that trip, hinting at the luxurious lifestyle she often portrays.
The conversation turned to her choice of strongest female character on television, leading them to wonder if she would name herself, given her history of self-promotion.
As they continued through the interview, the hosts shared their disbelief at Meghan’s responses.
When asked about an actor she’d love to work with again, Meghan chose Abigail Spencer, a co-star from her days on “Suits.”
While Andy acknowledged the friendship, he pointed out that it was curious how many of her former colleagues seemed to distance themselves from her after her rise to fame.
The highlight of the discussion was undoubtedly when Meghan was asked to choose between Princes William and Harry.
Her immediate response of “Harry” felt contrived to Andy and Tez, who speculated that she might have been caught off guard.
They theorized that the interviewer might have had insider knowledge that influenced the question, suggesting Meghan’s answer was less spontaneous than it appeared.
The hosts also touched on Meghan’s relationship with her pets.
Andy expressed disbelief that Meghan would ever choose a romantic partner over her dogs, especially after she reportedly rehomed one of them because it didn’t get along with Harry.
This led to a broader conversation about the responsibilities of pet ownership and how Meghan’s actions contradicted those values.
As the video wrapped up, Andy and Tez reflected on Meghan’s claims about her hidden talents, specifically her calligraphy skills.
They dismissed her assertion, pointing out that her style looked more like cursive than true calligraphy.
It was a humorous critique that underscored their overarching theme: Meghan’s tendency to exaggerate her capabilities.
Tez and Andy pondered the future of Meghan’s upcoming projects, including a cooking show.
Both agreed that while the initial curiosity might draw viewers in, the lack of authenticity and substance in her persona could lead to a quick decline in interest.
They mused about how difficult it would be for her to maintain viewer engagement without genuine content.
The discussion concluded with a light-hearted jab at Meghan’s role as a Duchess.
They debated whether she truly understood the responsibilities that came with the title, suggesting that her portrayal of royalty often felt forced.
As they signed off, viewers were left with plenty to think about regarding Meghan’s public image and the choices she has made throughout her career.
