Meghan SLAMMED For 'Profiting' From Bondi Victim Visit Outfit

An ad showcasing the outfit Meghan Markle wore when visiting victims and first responders of the Bondi shooting has been pulled after significant backlash. The Duchess of Sussex partnered with the site OneOff to sell versions of the outfits she wore on her Australian 'royal tour'. But when the outfit she wore after the Bondi Beach visit appeared in ad, a wave of criticism erupted, accusing Markle of profiting from the moment. The ad has since been deleted.


On this episode of The Royal Tea, Mark Dolan is joined by Talk’s Royal Correspondent Rupert Bell, who says it is not clever for Meghan to commercialise her appearance at Bondi Beach, and adds to the unedifying feeling of the entire trip.
