Meghan Markle

As you've no doubt heard by now, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed a new addition to their growing family this week.

Meghan gave birth to a bouncing baby girl who the couple named Lilibet in honor of a pet name that Prince Philip gave to Queen Elizabeth.

As previously reported, congratulations are in order for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.

Even from their sworn enemies.

She. Is. HERE!

On Friday, June 4, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry welcomed their second child and first daughter, a little girl whose name is a tribute to the latter's very famous grandmother.

When Meghan Markle gave birth to her first child, there were lingering questions with regard to what role baby Archie would one day play in the institution of the royal family.

Meghan and Prince Harry were quick to address that curiosity by declining a royal title for the boy, thus assuring that he would remain a civilian and live a much more private life than his cousins.

The royal family's sycophants worry that Meghan Markle has doomed the monarchy, somehow.

In real life, however, Meghan and Harry are more focused upon good things coming in their future.

There was a time when the Kardashians might have been the closest thing America had to its own royal family.

Some folks might argue in favor of the Kennedys or even the Trumps, but in order to be comparable to the Brits, the American royals shouldn't be a tribe of ambitious politicians or business moguls, but a flock of socialites who are famous simply for being famous.

For generations, the members of the British Royal Family followed a strict code of silence.

The "never complain, never explain" mantra guided the Queen and her offspring through scandals both political and personal, and it was assumed that her grandchildren would adhere to the same ethos.

Prince Harry has officially pulled back the curtain on, well...

... everything.

Even before her controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan Markle was one of the most heavily-scrutinized people on the planet.

But amazingly, the focus of the global microscope has only intensified in recent months.

Before he met and married Meghan Markle, Prince Harry had a reputation as a hard-partying ladies' man.

How much of that was warranted and how much was an invention of the British tabloid is a matter of frequent debate among royal-watchers.

For Prince Harry, it's not enough that -- for all intents and purposes -- he's left The Royal Family behind.

The handsome Duke must also kick his family members in their irresponsible, antiquated and downright evil behinds as well.

Now that the dust has settled, we can see Meghan Markle's Oprah Winfrey interview for what it was.

For millions of viewers, it was the television event of the year, but for Meghan it was nothing more than an opportunity to tell her story on her own terms and without interruptions.

Meghan Markle is getting slammed once again by the online community.

This time, however, it's not due to her allegedly pompous attitude or the way she reportedly treated staff members during her time as a committed member of The Royal Family.

Meghan Markle is unafraid to drag members of the Royal Family.

Hard.

Highly anticipated network television events have a long history of failing to live up to the hype.

But that certainly wasn't the case with Oprah Winfrey's interview with Meghan Markle, which left viewers stunned with its vivid descriptions of a woman held captive by palace walls.

Meghan Markle is undeniably one of the most famous women on the planet, and she'll certainly never want for anything from a material standpoint.

But it seems unlikely that her ambitions could ever be satisfied by mere fame and fortune. 

Here in the US, Meghan Markle's Oprah Winfrey was a major boon to the popularity of the already-beloved Duchess.

But it seems that overseas, the candid conversation between two queens had a very different effect.

Meghan Markle has been the target of some very strange criticisms in recent years.

But while 1,000-word thinkpieces about the Meghan's curtsying ability (or lack thereof) will always be absurd, the latest smear campaign against the Duchess of Sussex is probably the most ridiculous to date.

British tabloids have managed to blame Meghan Markle for Prince Philip's death and everything else that comes to mind.

The hatred for the Duchess of Sussex is not a mystery, but her strongest critics of course deny racism.

It's no secret that there's been quite a bit of strife within the royal family in recent months.

Tensions have been bubbling for several years, but the situation really boiled over in the wake of Meghan Markle's Oprah interview.

As you've no doubt heard by now, Prince Philip passed away last week at the age of 99.

For obvious reasons, the death didn't exactly come as a surprise, and sadly, the response from the British tabloid media was equally predictable.

As you very likely have heard about by now, Prince Philip died last Friday morning at the age of 99.

He had recently been in the hospital and had undergone a medical procedure and, welll...

If you've been anywhere near social media over the past four days then you've almost certainly encountered news of the passing of Prince Philip.

Husband to Queen Elizabeth II for 73 years, Philip was a divisive figure in the final decades of his life:

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have penned a message in honor of the latter's late grandfather.

As we're sure you've read about by now, Prince Philip died on Friday morning at the age of 99.
