One of Meghan Markle's most ardent supporters has stirred controversy by suggesting that Princess Catherine's battle with cancer is fabricated.
This individual even raised doubts about the existence of the late Princess Diana days after Princess Catherine revealed her undergoing preventative chemotherapy for an undisclosed illness. "I personally doubt Kate has or had cancer," remarked Jonathan Perkins, the Director of Race and Equity at the University of California, Los Angeles Office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, in a recent tweet reported.
Perkins, who had previously hailed Markle as an "American princess" and held positions at Harvard University, currently serves in his role at UCLA. However, his recent social media activity has been marred by spreading baseless allegations about Princess Catherine.
Perkins' tweets have been particularly egregious, alleging that the royal family is using the cancer diagnosis as a smokescreen for other motives. Moreover, he has insinuated that Princess Catherine might be in a coma or deceased, dismissing her and Prince Charles with disdain. His online behavior has not spared Princess Catherine from derogatory remarks, including branding her as a "known liar." Interestingly, while Perkins appears relentless in his criticism of Princess Catherine, he appears staunchly protective of Meghan Markle, often deflecting any scrutiny aimed at her.
Critics have lambasted Perkins for his unethical conduct, especially considering his position in academia. They argue that attacking someone battling a serious illness demonstrates a lack of morality and empathy. Furthermore, they draw parallels between Perkins' behavior and the toxic online culture perpetuated by supporters of Meghan Markle. Some even point out UCLA's association with controversial figures like Amber Turd, who have been accused of defaming others without consequence.
Despite calls for accountability, Perkins continues to enjoy his position at UCLA, raising questions about the institution's commitment to combatting online bullying and misinformation. Critics argue that if Harry and Meghan truly condemn such behavior, they should take a stand against individuals like Perkins who perpetuate hate campaigns under the guise of supporting them. The silence from the royal couple on this matter has left many disappointed, as they continue to advocate against online bullying while turning a blind eye to the toxicity propagated in their name.
