Meghan Markle Slammed As ‘Insecure’ And ‘Rude’ After Making Charity Woman Move Away From Prince Harry In Photo: ‘She Only Thinks About Herself’

Meghan Markle has come under fire after a video of her seemingly forcing a woman to move away from Prince Harry for a photo has gone viral.
The awkward photo incident occurred at the Royal Salute Polo Challenge held at the Grand Champions Polo Club in Wellington, Florida earlier this month, which Prince Harry was taking part in to support Sentebale, the charity he co-founded to help South African youths.
In the video, which has since been reposted on the @sussexroyal_hm Instagram page, the Duchess of Sussex can be seen presenting her husband with the trophy and then giving him a royal-protocol-breaking kiss. The pair then posed together for pictures, before a woman, who has since been identified as Sentebale chairwoman Dr. Sophie Chandauka, approached the couple for some pictures.
Chandauka first stands next to the Duke of Sussex, presumably hoping for a picture with the royal, while also touching the edge of the trophy. However, the former Suits actress, who is wearing a gorgeous off-white midi dress by Heidi Merrick, doesn’t seem to like the positioning; she motions for Chandauka to move away from her husband, while making sure that she is the one who is standing next to him for the pictures.
Many people on social media have slammed the American Riviera Orchard founder as being “rude,” “cringe,” “insecure,” and “bossy” for not allowing Chandauka the chance to stand next to the Duke of Sussex, the co-founder of the charity, while others have interestingly taken her side.
