Bethenny Frankel brands Meghan Markle a ‘terrible businessperson’

Bethenny Frankel is going in on the Princess!

Frankel believes Meghan Markle is a “terrible businessperson” who is really “f–king up” life after leaving the palace.

Page Six Reports: The former “The Real Housewives of New York City” star said in a viral TikTok video Tuesday that the Duchess of Sussex is “painting herself into a corner.”

“She is a terrible, terrible businessperson, strategist — she’s playing checkers, not chess — because she is overplaying her hand, and she is painting herself into a corner, becoming a woman without a country,” Frankel explained.

The Skinnygirl founder, 51, said Markle, 41, was able to get out of a “terrible situation” in the UK but is “f–king it up” because of her methods.

“I remember talking about this before the Oprah interview and getting death threats and losing major deals and having many A-list people text me saying that they agree with me secretly,” Frankel said, “but then friends of hers text me, ‘Please take down what you said.’”

Frankel described the “Suits” alum as a “polarizing person” but stood by her “personal choice” not to be “terrified and not talk.”

Hours before Markle and Prince Harry’s sit-down interview with Oprah Winfrey aired in March 2021, the former Bravolebrity slammed the “fairly unknown actress.”

“Cry me a river,” Frankel tweeted to her 1.5 million followers, soon bringing up the “Archetypes” podcast host’s past life as a “Deal or No Deal” briefcase model.

“The plight of being a game show host, fairly unknown actress, to suffering in a palace, w tiaras & 7 figure weddings for TWO WHOLE YEARS to being a household name w @Oprah on speed dial, fetching 7 m for interviews, hundreds of millions in media deals,” she added.

I agree. The woman is total goals. She accomplished ALL of her dreams. She doesn’t have to try to figure out how to get attention, be negative, or build a brand. She shot straight to the top.

We don’t want to hear her sob stories. Especially not the racism ones. Obviously nothing holds this woman back. She’s one of the best manifestors in the world.

Just be a Princess Megan, speak positive and sell dope sh*t. You got this.

P.S. Get you some hip black friends Sis. Ones that understand the streets to the executive suites and how to build a major business. You have too much going for yourself to complain. That’s just not the path boo.

You already have everyone’s support. Like I literally want to say NOTHING bad about her.

P.P.S. Don’t let it slip past you that Betthany is also saying this and promoting her podcast. Which is essentially the same thing Meghan is doing. Celebrities talking about celebrities is the new wave.

New Reality Show: Meghan Markle & Prince Harry Invite Cameras Into Their $14 Million Montecito Mansion

New Reality Show: Meghan Markle & Prince Harry Invite Cameras Into Their $14 Million Montecito Mansion

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have an upcoming reality show.

The royal couple is  filming an ‘at-home docuseries’ already branded a royal Keeping Up with the Kardashians for Netflix who have secured their ‘pound of flesh’ in return for their $100million Megxit streaming deal, it was claimed today.

Daily Mail Reports: The Sussexes are said to have welcomed cameras into their $14million Montecito mansion for a reality-type series that could be in the mould of The Osbournes – although it is not yet known if the couple’s two children, three-year-old Archie and 11-month-old Lilibet, will also feature.

‘I think it’s fair to say that Netflix is getting its pound of flesh,’ a Hollywood insider in the know about the project claimed to Page Six.

Royal expert Angela Levin, author of 2018 book ‘Harry: Conversations With The Prince’, said today: ‘Harry wanted privacy and to be ordinary. He also hated cameras. But he’s ended up doing an at home docuseries for Netflix. Does he need to be searched for hidden cameras on Jubilee days? Will he steal the event from the Queen?’

Australian royal commentator Daniela Elser said: ‘In only four years, the Sussexes have gone from being global darlings, resoundingly adored with desk drawers full of enterprising plans for charity projects, to reducing themselves to proto-Kardashians’.

The ‘at-home docuseries’ is one of the couple’s main media projects after Netflix, whose share price has tumbled after subscribers dropped as the pandemic fizzled out, scrapped Meghan’s animated show Pearl about a young girl inspired by Meghan who takes on social injustices while highlighting the work of feminist icons. The Duchess of Sussex is said to be looking for another broadcaster to buy it up.

In April, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams warned of possible ‘pressure from Netflix executives to get more royal content’, but he added that filming anything with other members of the Royal Family was ‘highly unlikely’.

Fitzwilliams told MailOnline at the time: ‘When Harry and Meghan signed up to Netflix for a deal worth $100million, according to the New York Times, in September 2020, the company appeared to be riding high with a huge and expanding reach owing to the pandemic.

‘It was undoubtedly a cachet to have two royals with a high global profile as well as produce The Crown which, though controversial, was an international hit.

‘A year and a half later they have actually produced absolutely nothing.’

Many are probably sitting there thinking “What has Megan done to Harry’s life?”

Did she help him get freedom, or issue on her own path?

Either way, Meghan is a MASTER MANIFESTOR. She gets everything she wants. 

Meghan Markle Reportedly Invited Celebrities She Barely Knew to Her Royal Wedding

In a new book written by Royal biographer Tina Brown The Palace Papers: Inside the House of Windsor — the Truth and the Turmoil, we learn intimate details about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s royal wedding, and how a black woman is moving the House of Windsor into a new era.

She Knows Reports:

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s wedding invite list was an A-list affair with many of Hollywood’s hottest celebrities in attendance. While royal affairs are rarely intimate, Meghan reportedly took the opportunity to use her nuptials as an opportunity to make high-profile friends, according to Tina Brown’s new book, The Palace Papers.

That meant that high-wattage stars like “Serena Williams, David and Victoria Beckham, Priyanka Chopra, Elton John, and the cast and producers of Suits all received gold-embossed invitations” to come watch 2018’s wedding of the year. But Brown alleges in her book that “the celebrity guests were a portrait not of Meghan’s intimate circle but of the friends she most wanted to recruit” into her inner circle. It’s where she reportedly gained access to Oprah Winfrey, who is now one of her neighbors in the elite Montecito neighborhood of Santa Barbara.

“Oprah, whom Meghan had scarcely met, if at all, was seated in prime pew real estate opposite the Queen…,” she writes. “Human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, who floated up the steps of the chapel in a stunning liquid yellow dress and wide-brimmed tea-tray hat, was seated with the debonair George opposite Princess Margaret’s son, Viscount Linley.” Brown even recalls a moment at the ceremony where George and Amal were asked by Princess Diana’s former roommate how they knew Harry and Meghan, “‘We don’t,’” she said the Clooneys answered ‘brightly.’”

Brown is subtly inferring that Meghan used her wedding as a social-climbing tactic, but it evidently worked. The Sussexes now count the Clooneys, Winfrey and Williams as close friends, and you can’t blame the A-list stars for taking the bait when they received the wedding invitation. It’s hard to say no to a royal wedding because the bragging rights are just too good.

This is great insight. Meghan is very smart. This is what you call social climbing. Something many kind women are too gracious to do. However, remember your network is your networth. Take advantage of all opportunities to advance yourself.
