Meghan Markle 'far from alone' after vile abuse as expert makes Princess Kate comparison
Meghan Markle recently referred to herself as "one of the most bullied people in the world" as other royal's similar experiences are pointed out by one expert.
Meghan Markle is "far from alone" after years of vile abuse online, claims one royal expert who drew a comparison to Kate, the Princess of Wales.
Upon joining a Santa Barbara programme to empower girls in their relationship with technology, Meghan described herself as "one of the most bullied people in the world".
Speaking of the former working royal, royal correspondent Jennie Bond expressed her support for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's efforts to create a safer digital environment - but points out that other royals have had comparable battles when it comes to abuse.
She told the Mirror: "I applaud the efforts that Meghan and Harry are making to help make the digital world a safer place especially for young people. And I am truly sorry that Meghan was subjected to abuse and bullying during her pregnancies and beyond.
"No-one should have to read disgusting abuse like that at any point in their lives. Sadly, though, Meghan is not alone in being bullied."
She also highlighted that Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York as well as Princess Kate also received similar abuse online through their lives - with both subjected to cruel insults over the years.

She added: "Meghan is far from alone in being a victim of abuse. But good on her for trying to do something about it."
Meghan's comment about being "one of the most bullied people in the world" took place during her afternoon to Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara on October 2.
During her visit, she participated in arts and crafts activities and promoting their fresh digital-wellness initiative called Social Media U.
Following Meghan's visit, Larissa May - who is the founder of #HalfTheStory - divulged to Vanity Fair details of Meghan's open discussion about the bullying she endured. Larissa articulated: "We did an activity where we talked through a bunch of different scenarios, and Meghan talked about being one of the most bullied people in the world. We had girls wave these little emoji signs and talk about how each one of these scenarios would have impacted them emotionally."
