Internet says 'pathetic' Meghan Markle is trying to emulate Princess Catherine

Netizens lashed out at Meghan Markle while comparing her dance moves with Princess Catherine.

One X user tweeted, "She’s trying so hard to be like princess Catherine remember princess Catherine and prince William dancing when they were on tour."

Another echoed, "She‘s trying to emulate Princess Catherine again. Catherine and William danced with locals during their royal tour of the Caribean a few years ago."



 



 

"Princess Catherine looks endearing and cute. This lady is so fixated in looking sexy (she’s not) and looks awful," remarked one, while someone else wrote, "She’s doing the same moves she did at that concert! It was pathetic then, pathetic now."
