In a recent turn of events, Meghan Markle has once again stirred the pot by claiming that she personally crafted strawberry jam for a select group of influencers and friends.
This announcement has drawn parallels to a previous incident involving banana bread during her visit to Australia, which has left many raising their eyebrows.
Back when Meghan and Prince Harry visited the Woodley family in Dubbo, Australia, Meghan presented them with what she called her homemade banana bread and a tin of Royal blend tea.
However, the reality behind this seemingly heartwarming gesture was far from idyllic.
Reports revealed that Meghan had ordered the Admiralty House staff to whip up batch after batch of banana bread throughout the night, until she was satisfied with the final product.
It seems her culinary skills might not be as hands-on as she portrays.
In Episode 4 of their Netflix series “Harry and Meghan,” the couple delves into how their time in Australia significantly impacted Meghan’s experience within the royal family.
A close friend noted that the public’s adoration for the couple during this tour seemed to pose a threat to the monarchy, stirring underlying tensions.
Yet, critics were quick to label the tour a disaster, citing what they deemed diva-like behavior from both Harry and Meghan.
Interestingly, a Tumblr user pointed out that the trip was originally intended for Harry to attend the Invictus Games.
Meghan’s last-minute addition altered the itinerary, resulting in extensive travel across Australia.
This shift raised eyebrows, particularly when the couple announced their pregnancy on International Pregnancy and Baby Loss Remembrance Day—a move some deemed insensitive given the context.
During their stay at Admiralty House, Meghan’s demands reportedly escalated.
While they were initially given access to the guest wing, Meghan insisted on taking over the entire house, leading to a confrontation with the Governor General’s wife.
In a moment that could only be described as audacious, Meghan allegedly quipped, “Don’t you know who I am?”
This moment encapsulated the growing perception of entitlement surrounding the couple.
The saga continued during their visit to Dubbo, where Meghan insisted that staff prepare banana bread using her recipe, rejecting numerous attempts until she was satisfied.
When she finally presented the bread to the Woodleys, it was framed as her own creation, raising questions about authenticity and transparency in her claims.
Rather than immersing themselves fully in the Invictus Games, the couple opted to attend only the opening and closing ceremonies.
Meghan reportedly expressed her boredom during the event, prompting Harry to request an unscheduled speech from her at the closing ceremony—a decision that did not sit well with many observers.
Throughout their Australian tour, the couple’s behavior drew criticism.
Despite visiting popular tourist spots, the crowds often appeared sparse in photos, suggesting that the couple’s presence did not draw the expected throngs.
Observers noted that Meghan frequently posed to accentuate her pregnancy bump, which sparked speculation about the authenticity of her pregnancy.
Additionally, Meghan’s wardrobe choices during the tour were often described as inappropriate, with many commenting on her crumpled appearance.
Tensions reached a boiling point when she allegedly threw a cup of hot tea at an assistant, leading to the palace compensating the staff member for the distress caused by this incident.
In the aftermath, Harry was seen apologizing profusely for his wife’s behavior, highlighting the strain their actions placed on their public image.
As these revelations continue to surface, the narrative surrounding Meghan Markle’s claims and the couple’s behavior during their royal engagements remains a hot topic.
