In the latest installment of Celebrity Big Brother, Louie Walsh and Sharon Osbourne didn't hold back as they took a pointed jab at Megan Markle.
This came on the heels of Louie's earlier critiques of Jedward, Ronan Keating, and Andrew Lloyd Webber. While chatting with Fern Brittain in the kitchen, the conversation veered towards the royal family. Sharon asserted that Megan's demeanor seems contrived, suggesting she puts on an act.
Louie, recalling a meeting with Princess Katherine, remarked on her charm but then quipped about the daunting shoes Megan must fill, especially with Diana's legacy. Imagining Megan with Diana's iconic engagement ring, Sharon mused, "Can you imagine if that ring had gone to Megan? My God!" Expressing skepticism about Megan's authenticity, Fern opined that there might be manipulation behind her public persona.
Louie and Sharon concurred, with Louie dismissing Megan as a "bad actress." Despite differing opinions, Fern expressed her desire for Harry's happiness and reconciliation with William, emphasizing family unity.
Meanwhile, Megan Markle and Prince Harry sought to revamp their public image by enlisting a new PR team and launching a website and podcast. However, their efforts to distance themselves from the royal family while still capitalizing on their status might backfire.
Although they've made numerous public appearances recently, particularly Harry in light of his father's health concerns, experts doubt the effectiveness of their PR blitz. Royal commentator Phil Dampier voiced skepticism in the Daily Mail, suggesting that the couple's attempts to boost their image may not resonate long-term.
He emphasized the need for them to address substantive issues and regain public trust, as their popularity has waned both in the US and the UK. Dampier cautioned that the couple faces an uphill battle in rebuilding their reputation, requiring genuine efforts beyond just public relations maneuvers.
