It’s a palace shocker for the ages: 24-year-old birth records have emerged that purport to reveal a secret baby linked to young Meghan Markle.
The papers, all over social media, have reduced Meghan to tears as lurid tales about her secret past ran wild. Royal observers are shocked, asking themselves if this is a low blow aimed at either her or the royal family.
The papers, from a U.S. hospital, list details that allude to Meghan as the mother when she wasn’t even an adult, sources say. “Meghan’s absolutely heartbroken,” a close friend said. “She is terrified because this drags up a bunch of things that she had put under the rug.”
The leak comes in the midst of some massive royal drama, such as King Charles’s health scares and spats with Prince Harry. Some consider it a backdoor to pressure Meghan or the palace, perhaps from upset former staff or family rivals.
Online, it’s chaos. #MeghanSecretBaby is trending big time. Mean critics commented, “This clarifies her drama—Harry, we’re dodging a bullet!” Fans hit back with “Fake gossip to bully her—no proof!”
A debate rages: Is it real dirt from Meghan’s past, or a lie designed to make the royals look bad? Among the many tweets was, “If true, it’s bigger than the scandal when Diana—poor Megan!”
The royal family is keeping schtum, but those on the inside are saying King Charles feels bad for his daughter-in-law, and Prince William and Queen Kate fear it could suck them into the mess.
Buckingham Palace has no comment, but the atmosphere is septic. The leak is a proverbial knife twist, coming as it does on the heels of Harry’s book threats and Camilla’s parentage claims.
Is the baby rumor true, or is it just a malicious lie? Meghan has yet to speak out, but her fans hope she will clear the air. The monarchy appears to be more broken than ever—and everyone’s waiting for that next juicy twist in this wild narrative.
