Reality television sensation Molly-Mae Hague has set social media ablaze with her latest controversial remarks, drawing direct parallels between her own public experience and that of Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.
The former Love Island star, 24, made the surprising comparison during a recent podcast appearance, suggesting both women faced similar levels of public scrutiny despite their vastly different backgrounds and circumstances.
'The Backlash Was Unprecedented'
Hague reflected on her journey into the public eye, stating: "I went from being a complete nobody to being thrown into the most crazy amount of scrutiny you could ever imagine."
She specifically referenced the intense media attention surrounding her relationship with boxer Tommy Fury and her rapid rise to creative director of PrettyLittleThing.
Social Media Reacts
The comparison has divided fans and critics alike across various platforms. Many Twitter users expressed disbelief at the equivalence, while others acknowledged that both women have indeed faced significant online criticism.
One user commented: "Comparing your reality TV fame to someone who married into the royal family is quite the stretch," while another noted: "Public scrutiny comes in different forms, but the mental toll is real for anyone in the spotlight."
A Pattern of Controversial Statements
This isn't the first time Hague has found herself at the centre of public debate. The influencer previously faced significant backlash for comments about wealth inequality and her "we all have the same 24 hours" remark that many found tone-deaf.
Her latest comparison to Meghan Markle appears to be another instance where her perspective on privilege and public perception has sparked widespread discussion.
As the conversation continues to evolve online, it raises broader questions about the nature of fame in the digital age and how public figures navigate the complex landscape of modern celebrity.
