“It Was NAUSEATING!” PR Expert EXPOSES Meghan Markle’s MasterChef Stunt and Accuses Her of USING Prince Harry!
A brand expert has highlighted a key detail in Meghan Markle’s MasterChef Australia episode that sheds light on the Duchess of Sussex’s questionable relationship dynamic with Prince Harry.
A royal commentator and brand expert has questioned Meghan Markle’s dependency on Prince Harry’s Royal star power after watching Sunday night’s episode of MasterChef Australia.
The Duchess of Sussex made a special guest appearance on the beloved Channel Ten cooking program this week, which was prerecorded in Melbourne during her Australian tour in April this year.
Contestants were asked to create a dish “fit for a Duchess”, which saw the aspiring chefs create meals incorporating the 44-year-old royal’s favourite ingredients, such as strawberries, lemons, artichokes and her signature edible flowers, made famous by her Netflix cooking series With Love, Meghan.

However, midway through the broadcast, as Meghan was sampling some of the finalists’ food, a stagehand revealed that they had received “a phone call to studio” from none other than the Duchess’s husband.
Prince Harry, 41, then appeared on a FaceTime video call from Canberra to say hello to Meghan and the cooks, before complimenting the MasterChef studio’s chandeliers.
The moment drew mixed reactions, with many of the contestants and judges in the studio pleasantly surprised and awestruck by the Duke of Sussex’s appearance via video call.
However, many watchers at home called out the bizarre cameo online, claiming that the moment was “staged”, “fake” and “unprofessional”.

Now, founder and CEO of Taurus Marketing Sharon Williams has weighed in on Prince Harry’s brief appearance on the cooking show, brutally dubbing the moment “nauseating”.
“I heard Harry was FaceTimed in. I think the appearance on MasterChef of Harry is rather nauseating,” she added.
Williams then noted the unusual dynamic between Harry and Meghan in the segment, calling out the couple’s dependency and the Duchess’s reliance on her husband to boost her notoriety.
“Can’t she do anything on her own? What husband is FaceTimed into an actress turning up on a TV segment?” she questioned.

“She needs him to get her attention and she is using her Royal connection.”
Williams then chimed in with social media users who had called out the seemingly candid moment as orchestrated, adding: “This was pre-filmed so there was no real surprise.
“It’s cringeworthy.”
