'Saint' Meghan Markle: 'Woe Is Me' Duchess of Sussex Feels 'Under Siege' as 'Everything She Does Is Criticized'

Meghan Markle is reportedly frustrated and feels 'under siege' as some critics label her 'woe is me.'

Meghan Markle is feeling encircled by attacks against "everything she does," as allegedly "nothing is ever good enough or of value," according to one Sussex insider. One commenter on X called the recent "wealthy sobfest" the "epitome of woe is me," and called the ex-working royal: "Saint Meghan."

"With news that the couple’s Netflix contract may be under threat, along with the mockery that greeted the launch of her online brand, Meghan feels very much under siege," royal author Tom Quinn suggested.

Despite her and Prince Harry's ongoing $100 million dollar Netflix deal, which another X observer said was "beyond what any struggling, hardworking family with food insecurities could ever conceive of," the Duchess of Sussex is said to be "hyper-focused on criticisms against her and could care less about positive reports."

Furthermore, this is also apparently causing rifts in her marriage, which led Quinn to add: "There is a growing rift between Harry and Meghan caused by Meghan’s increasing concern that her life is not going in the direction she had planned — she loves media attention and hates the fact that surveys suggest she and Harry are no longer of much interest to the American public."

On top of this, the ex-actress' newest venture is facing criticism long before production has even begun!

"The problem is I sometimes think Meghan can't let go and wants it to be about her..." royal expert Rupert Bell dished on the "Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered" podcast.

"Suits did well in its time," he added when highlighting a recent bombshell report suggesting the Duchess should bring her ex-costars on her upcoming Lemonada chatfest. "Meghan was in it. She earned a lot of money out of it. But it does feel retrograde if she's having to call on members of the cast that she has very little contact with."

He then observed: "The thing about her podcast that sort of annoyed me was it shouldn't be about her." The commentator then pointed out how the axed episode of "Archetypes" featuring Serena Williams would have been "a hit" had the interviewer focused more on the interviewee.

But others feel that Meghan is simply "her own worst enemy in practically everything."

"That would have got people listening all over the world," Quinn continued. "But instead, Meghan couldn't resist making it about her at times, and she did it with some of the other people she had on. The one fly in the ointment is Meghan’s new internet brand, America Riviera Orchard. Meghan was in tears when the brand launched and her new jam was widely mocked for being expensive and nothing special."

The scribe concluded: "She has reached the point now where she thinks that anything and everything she does will be unfairly criticized. Like her husband, she feels that people are unfairly picking on her — she cannot understand why people don’t admire her work."
