Did Meghan Lie About Her Age?

Controversy Surrounds the Duchess's True Birth Year

A recent revelation has sparked speculation about Meghan Markle's age, raising questions about whether she has been dishonest about her birth year.

While Meghan claims to be turning 42 in 2023, some pundits argue that she could actually be 46 years old.

This discrepancy has further fueled the perception that Meghan has a complicated relationship with the truth, as she has been accused of fabricating past stories to enhance her acting career.

In 2015, Meghan was quoted by The Sun as saying, “I think that as women actors, the industry can assume they have a shelf life…

I'm 33 and I'm really comfortable with that.”

These remarks indicate a desire to defy age-related stereotypes and embrace the idea of older women playing strong roles on television.

However, evidence suggests that Meghan may have been misleading about her age even back then.

One piece of evidence comes from a competition Meghan participated in 1997, where she stated that she was 21 years old.

This aligns with a story she shared about kissing a boy at a summer camp when they were both 13 years old.

The boy in question, Joshua Silverstein, is an award-winning entertainer and author who was born in 1977.

If Meghan was indeed 21 in 1997, it would mean that she was born in 1976, making her 46 years old today, not 41 as she claims.

Another clue to Meghan's true age emerged from court documents related to her privacy victory against a UK newspaper group in 2021.

Social media users pointed out a slip-up in the documents that seemingly revealed her real age.

According to one user, the document stated that Meghan was 2 years old when her sister Samantha was 15 and moved to another part of town.

Samantha, born in November 1964, is currently 57 years old.

If Meghan is 13 years younger than Samantha, it would place her birth year in 1977, making her 44 years old, not 41.

Adding to the intrigue, Sasha Walpole, a 40-year-old woman, recently came forward claiming to be the person Prince Harry lost his virginity to.

While she expressed disappointment that Harry revealed intimate details without informing her, she also noted the irony of him referring to her as an “older woman” when she is actually a year younger than Meghan.

The revelations surrounding Meghan's age have sparked debate and speculation among royal watchers and the public alike.

Some see it as another example of Meghan's alleged tendency to manipulate the truth, while others argue that age should not be a defining factor in how we perceive her or any other woman in the entertainment industry.

As the controversy continues, it remains to be seen whether Meghan will address these claims directly or let the speculation persist.
