From the moment her relationship with Prince Harry was made public, some, shall we say questionable, things have been written about the Duchess of Sussex. Let’s refresh our memories:

• “Harry’s girl is (almost) straight outta Compton”
• “Harry to marry into gangster royalty”
• Meghan will thicken the Windsors’ blood with her “rich and exotic DNA”

Oh, and let’s not forget this delightful tweet from “comedian” Danny Baker reacting to the news that Meghan was pregnant with her first child:

I mean, it’s not even subtle, is it? I’m sure some people reading this will be doing some mental gymnastics right now to try and explain away the racism in this coverage, but to quote Harry, “If you don’t understand why it’s being reported that way then I can’t help you.”
