Meghan's Birthday Posts Called 'Orchestrated'

Meghan Markle is facing fresh criticism over the Instagram content she shared from her 45th birthday celebrations, with royal commentators questioning the authenticity of the posts.

Birthday Celebrations Shared Online

Meghan turned 45 and celebrated with friends at her California home. She shared snaps and videos on Instagram, including images of her jumping into a pool with balloons and a video of her dancing with a birthday tiara.

In one video, her two dogs joined in, wearing birthday hats, while Harry could be heard saying, "Oh dear."

Commentators Question Authenticity

On The Royals Uncensored Show, guest host Dan Wakeford said, "It felt like a curated content strategy. It didn't feel natural. It just felt very orchestrated for the headlines." He also referred to Meghan's t-shirt reading 'It's giving Mrs', suggesting she is still "selling the marriage" as a brand.

Royal commentator Phil Dampier told The Sun: "They're always a bit contrived, aren't they? When you see these pictures of hers, they're always very, very contrived. You're always very controlled."

This criticism follows recent backlash over Meghan sharing photos of her children at Althrop Estate, Princess Diana's family home and final resting place.
