Why Meghan Markle doesn't care if Brits winced at her twerking video
Share this @internewscast.com

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, faced criticism in Britain last week after releasing a ‘cringeworthy’ video of herself twerking in the delivery room before her daughter Lilibet’s birth.

But she seems to have put the embarrassment behind her as she and husband Prince Harry, 40, enjoyed a family trip to Disneyland, California.

The Mail on Sunday can disclose that, despite receiving backlash for her awkward dancing with Harry to Starrkeisha’s Baby Mama song, Meghan remains undeterred and is delighted with the response in America.

A source close to the Sussexes said last night: ‘Meghan is very pleased with the video. In the UK, people’s reactions have been quite prudish, but elsewhere, particularly in America and especially among young people, it has been a major hit.’

Meghan is about to launch a series of new products as part of her As Ever line – including rosé wine. 

The source added: ‘She and her team count it [the video] as a “win”, which can only be a boost for sales. Her new products are marketed at Americans and not at the UK market.’

Her latest video release, on Friday, was a little less controversial. She posted footage of the two-day trip to Disneyland to celebrate Lilibet’s fourth birthday.

Lilibet met Elsa from Frozen while brother Archie, six, was thrilled to see a group of stormtroopers from Star Wars. The family also enjoyed rides including Space Mountain, Dumbo and Cars Land. There was also a Little Mermaid birthday cake for Lilibet.

Afterwards, Meghan, 43, wrote on social media: ‘Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy!’

Meghan launches her rosé wine in three weeks, joining stars including Brad Pitt, Drew Barrymore, Kylie Minogue and Sarah Jessica Parker, who all have lucrative alcohol lines.

A source said: ‘Meghan doesn’t care about the haters in Britain calling her vulgar. Americans thought the twerking video was hilarious and relatable.’ 

Social media lit up in the States with overwhelmingly positive comments. 

One fan wrote: ‘When she pulls her dress up and drops it low I hollered. Yes Queen!’

Another said: ‘I love this. It’s an incredibly sweet, silly and intimate look into their relationship, something I could never imagine they’d share (a look inside the hospital room of a royal baby’s birth!) but I’m so happy they did.’

Eric Schiffer, of Reputation Management Consultants, said: ‘Meghan wants to connect with Gen Z which demands viral moments. She doesn’t care about the UK because that’s not where the money is.

‘Brits have certain standards they expect of royalty. Americans don’t care. To us it’s a soap opera.’

The duchess has made no secret of her love of wine, naming her pre-Harry blog The Tig after her favourite Italian red, Tignanello. 

Viewers of her Netflix show With Love, Meghan commented on how often she enjoyed a glass of wine with guests. The rosé will be sourced from grapes grown in California, close to the Sussexes’ Montecito mansion.

Jessica Gasca, who produces rosé for her company, Story Of Soil in nearby Los Olivos, said: ‘The Santa Ynez Valley, in Meghan’s backyard, is a prime location for growing all varietals because we have a mountain range that runs East-West with a microclimate that allows warm temperatures during the day for growth and cool ocean winds and fog at night to preserve the acidity.

‘Meghan could be partnering with a good winemaker and putting her own label on their wine or she could go in and taste wines from a load of barrels and say “I’ll take this one and that one” and produce her own wine.’

Winemaker Amber Hogan from Santa Barbara said: ‘I haven’t heard about Meghan getting into the wine business, which is surprising because it’s a very small industry locally and we all talk.’

Meghan launched As Ever in April in conjunction with Netflix, which airs her lifestyle show as part of a $100 million (£74 million) five-year deal.

The source said: ‘The rosé wine is only the first product in what she and Netflix hope will be a substantial alcohol range, which will include ready-made cocktails and luxury items like flower-infused gin. 

‘Expect the new products to include more jams like strawberry. She has been exploring lemon curd, which is a very English thing. It’s not something most Americans know about.’

Meghan has assumed the role of ‘chief storyteller’. The source added: ‘She has very clear views about the stories she wants to tell around her products.

‘Each one means something to her, Harry and their kids and, of course, in Meghan’s world everything is perfect.’
