Meghan Markle once again found herself in hot water following her “Deal or No Deal” claims.
“Breaking down the Bimbo,” a recent episode of the “Archetypes” podcast, became the center of attention for all the wrong reasons when Meghan opened up about her time on “Deal or No Deal.” According to Deadline, the Duchess of Sussex revealed that she left the show because it made her feel stupid – or like a bimbo.
She also expressed her displeasure with being objectified by tucking her stomach and wearing fake eyelashes and hair extensions for the show.
Meghan continued:
“I was surrounded by smart women on that stage with me, but that wasn’t the focus of why we were there. And I would end up leaving with this pit in my stomach, knowing that I was so much more than what was being objectified on the stage. I didn’t like feeling forced to be all looks and little substance. And that’s how it felt for me at the time, being reduced to this specific archetype.”
Following her remarks, an NSFW scene from “Beverly Hills, 90210” resurfaced in which she performed oral sex on Dustin Milligan’s Ethan in a car after leaving the game show.
As a result, after celebrities and former “Deal or No Deal” colleagues reacted to her claims, the public slammed her as a hypocrite.

Claudia Jordan, Meghan’s co-star on the game show, expressed her displeasure on Instagram and dismissed Meghan’s claims about being treated like bimbos. They were allowed to engage with the contestants after demonstrating their outgoing and fun personalities, according to the “Deal or No Deal” alum.
Unlike Meghan, she relished her time on the show and saw it as an opportunity to live her life her way while paying “all her bills.”
Meanwhile, Megyn Kelly dubbed the Duchess of Sussex the “Duchess of Duplicity,” claiming Meghan relished every minute she spent on “Deal or No Deal.” On her SiriusXM show, she also stated that the former actress desired to be objectified.
This echoed Whoopi Goldberg’s criticism of Meghan, who explained that the “objectification may be coming” from the former actress alone.
