There are rumors circulating that Eddie Murphy has strongly criticized Meghan Markle for her negative comments about his latest Christmas movie, "Candy Kane Lane."
The Hollywood legend, known for his comedy, didn't mince words in response to Meghan's critique of the film, where he plays the lead role caught up in a mischievous elf's antics during a Christmas decoration contest. Murphy labeled Meghan a spoiled brat and a hypocrite, accusing her of lacking a sense of humor and failing to appreciate the festive spirit.
Meghan, who watched the movie with her family, expressed dismay and voiced concerns about its portrayal of Christmas as materialistic and competitive, mocking monarchy traditions and values, and stereotyping and ridiculing elves as greedy villains. Known for her activism, Meghan urged her followers to boycott the film, calling it offensive, foolish, and culturally insensitive.
Despite Meghan's criticism, Eddie Murphy, enjoying critical acclaim for his return to comedy, confronted her in a private message. He advised her to mind her own business and emphasized that the movie was a funny and heartwarming tale celebrating the magic of Christmas, not meant to be taken too seriously. Murphy highlighted the film's success, topping charts on Amazon Prime Video and receiving positive reviews from audiences.
A close friend of Prince William and Princess Katherine, Murphy also criticized Meghan for her role in accusations of racism against the royal family, expressing disapproval of her involvement in the bombshell book by Omid Scobie. He accused Meghan of being dishonest and disloyal to the royal family, questioning her authority to pass judgment on his movie or his career.
However, it's crucial to note that the reported confrontation between Eddie Murphy and Meghan Markle did not actually happen. The information was fabricated by a YouTube channel, as confirmed by a search linking to videos with identical claims. Despite Hollywood allegedly shunning Meghan, she aims to reframe her narrative, claiming that she and Prince Harry prefer quality over quantity.
Public relations experts remain skeptical about Meghan's attempts at a Hollywood comeback, with PR guru Mark Borkowski suggesting that Hollywood executives have observed enough attempts to turn her "Suits" TV show experience into A-list stardom. Meanwhile, the royal family's decision to ignore Meghan and Harry diminishes their potential to play the royal card.
As they reflect on 2023, Meghan and Harry might want to consider a new approach – a year of silence – given that neither the royal family nor Hollywood seems eager to embrace them.
