A recent headline in the National Enquirer has stirred up a storm of controversy, accusing Meghan Markle of absconding with $10 million worth of jewelry that once belonged to Princess Diana.
According to the tabloid, Markle is allegedly refusing to return the precious jewels, further fueling the ongoing smear campaign against her.

Additionally, Markle reportedly expressed anger at being given a diamond tiara instead of the emerald one she desired for her wedding day.
Speculation runs rampant as to how many other treasures Markle may have taken with her.
Meanwhile, in a separate development, a poll conducted by Express.co.uk indicates that a vast majority of readers have no interest in listening to Markle’s new podcast series.
Titled “Archetypes,” the podcast’s first episode featured Markle in conversation with tennis star Serena Williams, discussing topics such as motherhood, pregnancy, and societal perceptions of ambition in women.
The hour-long episode also included an interview with Dr. Laura Kay, where Markle shared personal anecdotes about her struggles with ambition and motherhood.
Despite the initial excitement surrounding “Archetypes,” the poll results revealed that only a small fraction of respondents expressed a willingness to tune in.
Many readers voiced their disinterest in the podcast, with some even going as far as canceling their Spotify subscriptions in protest.
Markle and Prince Harry’s partnership with Spotify has allowed them more freedom to express their views and beliefs, with “Archetypes” serving as their debut project under the deal.
Royal author Omid Scobie praised Markle’s podcast as a platform for her to reclaim her voice after feeling stifled by the royal institution.
In a column for Yahoo News, Scobie commended Markle for embracing her uncensored narrative and creating a space for open dialogue.
He highlighted the significance of Markle’s newfound autonomy and the impact it could have on her audience, emphasizing her journey toward self-expression and empowerment.
As Markle continues to navigate her post-royal life alongside Prince Harry, her foray into podcasting signals a shift towards reclaiming her identity and advocating for causes close to her heart.
The controversy surrounding the jewel theft allegations and the lukewarm reception to her podcast underscore the complexities of Markle’s public image and the challenges she faces in the spotlight.
