Megan Markle's bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey aired on CBS on March 7th, 2021 has sparked intense global debate and further strained her relationship with the British royal family and UK media. However, new reports have emerged claiming Markle displayed highly unprofessional conduct both during and after the interview, raising serious questions about her behavior and public image in America.
Sources from CBS have disclosed to media outlets that following the taping of the two hour special, Markle lashed out in anger at one of the producers. While the specific reason for her outburst is unclear, it is believed she was unhappy with aspects of how she was questioned and portrayed during the broadcast. This behavior has only further reinforced Markle's perception as someone who treats individuals she sees as subordinate with disrespect.

/p>Interestingly, CBS chose to selectively release an unflattering outtake from the interview showing Markle and Prince Harry answering questions in a dull, detached manner. In the clip, the interviewer appears bored while the couple provide minimal substantive responses. Markle's strange facial expressions directed at Harry and his rude interruptions of the interviewer did little to make them seem comfortable or come across authentically.
Neil Sha, a former CBS employee with insider knowledge of the network, revealed all questions, answers and even emotional displays by Markle and Harry were pre-scripted and rehearsed in advance of the taping. Yet despite all aspects being tightly controlled and coordinated, the pair still struggled to appear natural or at ease during the broadcast. According to Sha, no other major news organization was willing to agree to the extensive control over content and narrative that Markle and Harry demanded from CBS.

/p>The pre-approved questioning and CBS's understanding they would get access to future Meghan memoir interviews suggests the entire production was a strategically planned performance, rather than a sincere discussion. In spite of this, Markle's poor acting abilities betrayed apparent contempt for her husband as well as an inability to seem maternal while discussing her children.
When queried about her perspective on parenting and online bullying during the interview, many viewers found Markle's responses vague and lacking in conviction. Her evasive eye contact and reluctance to elaborate on her children Archie and Lilibet fueled suspicions about the level of her genuine involvement in their daily lives.
Similarly, Prince Harry's statements on serving as "first responders" during people's struggles with mental health were met with widespread skepticism by mental health professionals and experts in the field. Critics argued neither Harry nor Meghan possess the clinical qualifications or training to credibly speak on such specialized issues. Their claims threaten to undermine the lifesaving work of true professionals in the psychology and psychiatry fields.

The various controversies reignited discussion of Markle's alleged past difficult behavior and mistreatment of individuals she worked with prior to marrying into the royal family. Resurfaced reports describe her as rude, controlling, and prone to making unreasonable demands of assistants and other staff. Stories also circulated claiming she had stolen personal property from former co-workers.
This pattern paints a portrait of a woman prone to haughty, disrespectful treatment of those seen as her subordinates. Such behavior seems contrary to the compassionate advocacy work and social causes Markle and Harry publicly portray themselves as passionate about.
The details of Markle's behind-the-scenes conduct towards CBS producers has begun attracting extensive media coverage with rumors spreading through Hollywood. This type of conduct could severely damage any prospects for future cooperation between Markle, Harry and major American media organizations going forward.

Their constant bid to tightly script how they are portrayed while simultaneously advocating for mental health and empowerment comes across as contradictory and inauthentic to many observers. Such PR missteps undermine the sincerity of the important messages they profess to champion.
Ultimately, the fallout from Markle's interview has represented a major blow to her credibility and reputation across the United States and United Kingdom. Until she demonstrates a willingness to conduct herself with professionalism, humility and authenticity in all aspects of public life, ongoing doubts about her character and motives seem unlikely to subside. Maintaining a coherent public image continues to prove enormously challenging for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
