Conservative commentator Candace Owens has ignited a firestorm after fiercely criticizing Meghan Markle over a recent “fake family” video that was intended to portray the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry in a positive light but instead spectacularly backfired. The video, which showcased an overly staged and carefully curated portrayal of the royal couple and their children, was meant to counteract persistent rumors and negative perceptions but ended up fueling more skepticism and backlash.

Owens slammed Meghan with biting remarks, accusing her of fabricating an inauthentic image to manipulate public sympathy. She argued that the video failed miserably at masking what many already believe: that the Sussexes have distanced themselves emotionally and physically from the traditional royal family. Owens called out Meghan for attempting to “play the victim” and said, “The British public and the world deserve the truth, not a rehearsed performance designed to hide cracks in a fractured family.”
The backlash was swift and severe. Social media users echoed Owens’s criticisms, labeling the video as “cringeworthy” and “disingenuous,” with many pointing out the overly polished presentation and the lack of natural warmth. The attempt to showcase a united and happy family only intensified the narrative of “fake” royal unity and deepened controversies surrounding the couple’s reported rifts with other family members.
Insiders confirm that this video was strategically released by Meghan’s PR team to improve her and Harry’s tarnished public image, but instead, it sparked fresh questions about authenticity and transparency. Candace Owens’s sharp critique has amplified these doubts, positioning her as a leading voice for those who view the Sussexes with suspicion.
This incident underscores the growing divide between Meghan Markle’s carefully constructed public persona and the harsh scrutiny she faces from critics. The “fake family” video debacle and Owens’s scathing response highlight the intense battle over the Sussex narrative in the media and public opinion.
