Meghan Markle’s Pregnancy: Was it a Fake?
Intriguing Video Raises Doubts
Many people have become convinced that Meghan Markle's pregnancy was not what it seemed.
The catalyst for this skepticism was a video that went viral, casting doubt on the authenticity of her pregnancy.
The footage captured Markle during her second trimester as she visited the Mayhew Animal Shelter in London on January 16th, 2019.
What shocked many viewers was Markle's ability to effortlessly play with a dog while wearing heels and then stand up without any apparent difficulty.
At the time, she was approximately five months pregnant.
This led several netizens to question whether a pregnant woman with a protruding belly could perform such actions, ultimately concluding that Markle was faking her pregnancy.
Video Sparks Controversy
The video in question garnered a multitude of reactions from those who watched it.
Many believed that it served as solid evidence that Markle's pregnancy was indeed a charade.
“Holy moly, watch the bump pop out and make that noise.
She looks down and touches it as it pops out.
People need to see this,” exclaimed one viewer.
Another individual chimed in, stating, “Never mind squatting in heels with your knees closed.
That's actually not possible after the fourth month.
No matter how much yoga you do, the uterus won't allow it.”
These comments were accompanied by observations about Markle's stomach suddenly growing larger and emitting a popping sound as she stood up.
“You can literally see that thing pop back out and get bigger when she stands up.
This is bizarre,” remarked J-Man.
Eric M added, “You can literally see it re-inflate itself.”
Lady B, who claimed to have been pregnant before, expressed her disbelief, saying, “I'm sorry, but every time that I was pregnant, there was no way my baby belly would compress so that I could squat or bend like that.”
Volunteer's Account
Jane Smith, a volunteer at the Mayhew Animal Shelter, also shared her perspective on the incident.
She vividly recalled Markle's visit, noting that the Duchess of Sussex arrived over an hour late and only stayed for 40 minutes.
Smith was particularly struck by the loud noise Markle's supposed fake bump made when she stood up after crouching down.
“It was a very audible boom, and I noticed her look at the bump and stroke it as if nothing had happened,” Smith recounted.
This eyewitness account further fueled speculations surrounding Markle's pregnancy.
The Royal Line of Succession
One question that arises is why anyone would fake a pregnancy in the first place.
Some argue that the Sussexes could have simply announced that they had hired a surrogate.
However, British law complicates matters.
If the couple wanted their child to be in the line of succession to the British throne, they could not have employed a surrogate.
According to the law, the surrogate is considered the legal mother of the child.
Consequently, the baby would not be born within the Sussexes' marriage, and only children born within a royal marriage can be in the line of succession.
Moreover, the rules stipulate that royal babies must be born naturally and from the bodies of the royals themselves.
If Meghan did not carry the babies, they would not be entitled to the styles of His or Her Royal Highness or princely titles.
These regulations may provide a plausible reason for faking the pregnancy.
How Could a Pregnancy Be Faked?
One might wonder how exactly a person could fake a pregnancy.
The method used is similar to those employed in movies.
The mother-to-be wears a silicone or foam bump, which can easily be purchased from online stores such as Amazon.
In the case of the Sussexes, the baby was expected to arrive in April, but the month came and went without any news.
