Kate Middleton’s uncle, Gary Goldsmith, has stirred controversy by launching a scathing public critique of Meghan Markle. In a highly charged interview, Goldsmith not only bestowed Meghan with a derogatory nickname but also cast doubt on the longevity of her marriage to Prince Harry. These remarks surfaced prior to Kate Middleton’s public revelation of her battle with cancer in a video message released by the palace on the official social media account of the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Referring to her as ‘Laughing Girl,’ the Celebrity Big Brother alum harshly criticized the Duchess of Sussex during his recent interview with a leading publication. He added, “Let’s face it, Laughing Girl isn’t going to be around forever, is she?” he remarked. “I think she’s fickle. And I think she’s so bad for Harry and for our country,” directing his criticism towards the estranged royal family.
Meghan and Prince Harry stepped back from their royal duties in 2020 following their marriage in 2018. They relocated from the UK to California, USA, in pursuit of a fresh start. Tensions escalated as Meghan and Harry spoke out on various issues, resulting in further distancing. Despite a recent wave of health concerns within the royal family, including King Charles’ illness and Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis, there was a brief glimmer of hope for reconciliation. However, sources suggest that the rift is far from healed, indicating that the path to reconciliation remains uncertain.
During his conversation with the Times, Goldsmith expressed his displeasure with Markle’s post-split attitude towards the royal family. He also criticized her for alleging that members of the royal family made racially insensitive remarks about her son Archie’s skin color prior to his birth in 2019. While Markle did not explicitly name the individuals involved in her statement, royal author Omid Scoobie, known for his controversial book Endgame, identified them as “Kate Middleton and King Charles.
