Meghan Markle has faced renewed criticism after an awkward interaction with Dr. Sophie Chandauka at a charity polo event resurfaced amidst bullying claims against Prince Harry. The exchange, where Markle requested Chandauka to switch positions in a group photo, drew media attention and led to Chandauka's unwillingness to defend Markle publicly. She expressed concerns that any statement in support of Markle could lead to increased trolling directed at the Duchess. Chandauka's recent resignation from the charity Sentebale has further fueled the narrative, prompting scrutiny on their dynamic.
Chandauka explained that the choreography went badly on stage, leading to significant media scrutiny about Markle's presence and her interaction with Chandauka, which contributed to her decision to not issue a statement of support.
Despite the awkwardness of the moment, Chandauka stated she wouldn't issue a support statement for Markle, highlighting her awareness of the backlash that would ensue for both Markle and herself.
