Meghan Markle blasted for 'cashing in' on royal title after creating ShopMy account to earn commissions

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Meghan Markle recently launched her ShopMy account, giving fans a sneak peek at her fashion pieces while earning commissions from affiliate links.
However, the Duchess of Sussex’s latest venture into fashion faced backlash from some internet users who accused her of monetizing her royal title.

Prince Harry's 43-year-old wife, known for her fashion sense, will share online links to her favorite merchandise through her new venture. Recently on Instagram, Meghan discussed her ShopMy account, assuring fans that more is on the way.
Meghan Markle creates her ShopMy account
The mother of two recently shared on Instagram that she created a ShopMy account to post links to her outfits, including pieces from her Netflix show, allowing her to earn commissions.
On Monday, March 24, Meghan wrote on Instagram, “Many of you have asked, so here you go!” and added, “A little shopping to start the week. More to come. Link in bio.”

Her wardrobe came as no surprise, as the links were mainly filled with elevated basics and mostly the neutral-toned outfits she often wears.
As reported by Daily Mail, Meghan listed a $1,415 beige cashmere crewneck from designer Loro Piana, a $1,350 ivory silk maxi dress by Heidi Merrick, and a pair of loose brown pants listed for $388 from Brochu Walker.

The former ‘Suits’ actress named her account after her official title, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, sparking criticism from social media users who accused her of leveraging the royal family’s name for personal gain.
This came just days after the Duchess corrected her friend Mindy Kaling for calling her Meghan Markle, insisting that her name is now Meghan Sussex.
Some users even referenced the Sandringham Summit, which followed Prince Harry and Meghan's January 2020 announcement of their decision to step down from royal duties.

"I’m almost embarrassed for her. No matter how much money she makes, this is a spectacular fall from grace. She’s gone from the royal balcony to merching clothes she hasn’t even designed herself," shared someone else.

Another user noted, "If she’s so popular and loved all over the world, she doesn’t need the British royal title to prop up her little business does she? She is only where she is because of who she married."

"This is the ultimate slap in the face to Queen Elizabeth’s memory and the Sandringham agreement," noted another user, before adding, "She’s blatantly cashing in on a title she swore she wouldn’t exploit, and it’s just shameless. How much lower can she go? Disgraceful."
