Megyn Kelly has slammed Meghan Markle for posting pictures of her kids near Princess Diana’s grave. Markle posted the controversial photo to mark her and Prince Harry’s recent U.K. visit. Kelly blasted the post on her show, calling Markle a “disaster artist.”
Megyn Kelly saw Meghan Markle’s Diana photo and called it ‘disaster tourism’
Meghan Markle documented her recent return to the U.K. with Prince Harry and their children Archie and Lilibet in a new Instagram carousel. The photo that stood out the most featured Harry and the kids walking down a grassy lane, believed to be at Althorp. It is the 13,000-acre Northamptonshire estate, where Princess Diana is buried.
The photo sparked immediate backlash, with Megyn Kelly weighing in. In a recent episode of her show, the journalist spoke with Dan Wootton to discuss the image.
Wootton said that People magazine has confirmed that the photo captures the Sussexes at Althorp. Meanwhile, Kelly stated, “We know very well what she is telegraphing with this shot of her children on that particular estate.”
She added, “And there has been a lot of reaction to this. She is a disaster tourist, and she can’t go anywhere that doesn’t bring up a tragedy; where she doesn’t insert herself. Or, in this case, her family, right smack dab in the middle.”
Agreeing, Wootton said, “This is the first time [the children had] ever been there. And the fact that Meghan not only decided to get it on camera but post it says a lot about her. But my belief is that this is just the beginning.” Wootton suggested that the couple could be eyeing another Netflix project.
“They need money, and they still have a first-look deal with Netflix. Netflix has been very interested for a long time in a documentary [on Princess Diana], and you can’t blame them. It would do massive numbers. It is the thirtieth anniversary of Diana’s death next year,” Wootton suggested.
