75-Year-Old BBC Presenter Brutally Slams Pregnant Meghan Markle For Her Fashion Taste

November 16, 2018

The Duchess of Sussex is known for her implacable fashion taste. Since marrying Prince Harry, she got herself a loyal fan base, who attentively follow her every appearance, making notes and splurging at the shops, buying everything the Duchess chooses to wear.

Meghan probably doesn’t even know what power she holds over the fashionistas. She might have no idea how many people she has inspired with such a simple thing as a skirt or a dress. However, not everyone is fond of her clothing choices. Recently, the Duchess was slammed for the fashion trend she likes to use by a BBC presenter.

A snide remark

75-year-old BBC presenter John Humphrys is a traditionalist. He is not a fan of new fashion trends emerging here and there, especially the one that the Duchess of Sussex likes to exploit.

Mr. Humphrys criticized Meghan’s laid-back 'French tuck' style. It is a popular street style where only a part of a shirt is being tucked into jeans or trousers. The presenter called people doing that ‘slobs’, by saying:

Anyone who does not believe women and men are equal is a moron. Equal but different. I have four words to support that view. The first two are 'French tuck'.

He elaborated more:

When men do it, it’s because we are basically slobs and we don’t even notice. When women do it (OK — some women), it’s because they want to appear fashionable. Apparently, Meghan Markle does it, and so does Cate Blanchett — and you don’t get a greater endorsement of a fashion trend than that. The other two words are 'ripped jeans'. And with that, I rest my case.

Do you agree that women are ‘slobs’ too by acquiring such fashion technique?

This is not the only thing Meghan was criticized for

With an army of followers, the Duchess of Sussex got an army of haters as well. Previously, they were enraged when she appeared at a royal event wearing a ‘too short’ dress.

When we grow older we realize that not everyone will like what we do or what we wear. Perhaps, Meghan understands that too and she’s not that bothered when someone she doesn’t even know says they don’t like something she wears. And that’s the way to go about it!
