Meghan Markle Faces Global Mockery for Controversial Children’s Book

, the Duchess of Sussex, has become the subject of ridicule and laughter on various U.S. TV shows and around the world due to her recently released children's book.

The book, titled “The Bench,” focuses on the bond between fathers and sons.

However, critics find it laughable that Meghan, who had written the book as a poem for her husband, , on Father's Day, is now being compared to renowned children's authors such as Roald Dahl and J.K. Rowling.

During a segment on Channel 9's morning show, host Karl Stefanik expressed his disbelief that Meghan and Harry would write poetry for each other in their spare time.

His co-host, Alison Langdon, also questioned the comparison between Meghan and established children's authors.

The sarcastic tone continued when reporter Amelia Adams mentioned that an audiobook version of “The Bench” would be released.

She jokingly remarked that listening to Meghan's dull voice would be the perfect way to pass time while cooking dinner or driving in the car.

Karl Stefanik burst into laughter upon learning that the book had originated from a poem Meghan wrote for on Father's Day.

He mocked the idea that the couple would engage in such activities, exclaiming, “They actually wrote poetry together?

Come on!”

He further criticized Meghan, calling her delusional and accusing her of fabricating stories and marketing moves to gain global attention.

He predicted that the book would end up in bargain bins sooner than anyone could imagine.

Critics have been quick to point out the hypocrisy of Meghan writing about fatherhood while remaining estranged from her own father, Thomas.

Royal commentators Richard Fitzwilliams and Penny Junor both expressed their doubts about Meghan's choice of subject matter.

Fitzwilliams found it extraordinary that Meghan would highlight the bond between fathers and sons when she has a strained relationship with her own father.

Junor added that it's easy to talk about relationships between fathers and young children but much more challenging when the children are older, as Meghan experienced with her own father and Harry with his.

Despite the criticism, Meghan claims that the book was inspired by the poem she wrote for Harry on Father's Day, shortly after their son was born.

She aims to explore the special bond between father and son through a mother's perspective.

However, revelations from Harry's tell-all interview with , where he discussed his strained relationship with his father, Prince Charles, have cast doubt on the authenticity of Meghan's portrayal.

Popular culture expert Nick Ede estimates that Meghan received an advance payment of £250,000 to £500,000 for writing the book.

While Meghan follows in the footsteps of other royals who have authored children's books, such as Sarah, Duchess of York, Princess Michael of Kent, and even Prince Charles himself, critics argue that Meghan's credibility is questionable given her strained relationships with her own family.

The controversy surrounding Meghan's book raises questions about her intentions and the use of her royal title.

Critics argue that if Meghan truly wants to distance herself from the royal family, she should not exploit her title for economic gain.

They find it ironic and cringe-worthy that she would use her royal status on the book cover while simultaneously criticizing the institution she married into.

As opinions continue to pour in, it remains to be seen how Meghan's book will be received by the public.

Some believe it will fade into obscurity like many other children's books, while others speculate that it may resonate with Meghan and Harry's own family.

One thing is certain: 's latest venture has ignited a firestorm of criticism and mockery, leaving many to question her motives and credibility.
