Meghan Markle Torched for Getting New Billie Eilish T-Shirt for Kid Who Lost Home in LA Fires

Meghan Markle has become the target of brutal online hate and accused of having “not a drop of humility” after she posted a video celebrating the fact that she had obtained some Billy Eilish merchandise for a teenager whose house burned down in the California fires.

Markle, who is a multi-millionaire thanks to the series of lucrative deals she and her husband Prince Harry signed after they left the royal family and spilled their secrets, posted the video to her Instagram page.

Comments have been switched off but the message has become the target of vituperative commentary on other platforms, with critics accusing her of insincerity and ill-advised self-promotion.
