The Duchess of Sussex had a couple of awkward moments at the SXSW Festival in Texas. Meghan Markle was on stage discussing serious issues like the “toxic” trolling she and Prince Harry experienced when they were senior royals.
The mum-of-two got emotional talking about her pregnancies and the “cruel bullying and abuse” she and Harry faced online. Meghan was on stage with journalist Katie Couric, actress Brooke Shields and diversity equity and inclusion consultant at Peoplism, Nancy Wang Yuen.
Errin Haines, who hosts The Amendment podcast, led the event’s opening talk, called Breaking Barriers, Shaping Narratives: How Women Lead On and Off the Screen. But people on social media noticed two awkward moments – Meghan’s reaction to a joke by Shields and what seemed like a missed hug.
