Meghan Markle shamed for using her royal title in letter to Congress | Royal |

Ms Robinson hammered how the letter signed by Meghan was no only signed off as Ms Markle referring to herself as the Duchess of Sussex but it also used the official Duke and Duchess letter paper.

The royal expert explained this decision “rubbed me the wrong way” as she argued that royal familial links should be kept out of politics.

She explained: “It feels a little funny to me to crossover into political territory when you are using your royal titles.”

Ms Robinson went on to note how observers are aware that the Royal Family “for the most part try to stay away from politics”.

The letter Meghan wrote called for a “strong paid leave program for every American that’s guaranteed, accessible and encouraged without stigma or penalty”.

She acknowledged that since the beginning of the pandemic, millions of women had dropped out of the workforce in order to provide for their children.

Meghan also spoke of her own childhood, saying that she had felt “lucky” to be eating a $4.99 salad at Sizzler as she was aware of how hard her parents had worked. 

The Duchess added: “I started working (at the local frozen yoghurt shop) at the age of 13. I waited tables, babysat, and piecemealed jobs together to cover odds and ends.

“I worked all my life and saved when and where I could—but even that was a luxury – because usually it was about making ends meet and having…
