Meghan Markle, 41, spoke to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills executive producer Andy Cohen on the air of the new episode of the author’s podcast Archetypes last Tuesday. The Duchess admitted that this is her favorite show on television, but she stopped watching it, because her life already has “enough drama”.
Okay, I’ll tell you the truth. I stopped watching The Housewives when my own drama came into my life,” she admitted, apparently referring to her strained relationship with the British royal family. – However, almost all my friends still watch it. It’s because it’s entertainment for them, it’s fun for them.
The Duchess of Sussex also wondered if the franchise helps to create the right female image, or, on the contrary, interferes with it.
Does this show empower women to be who they are? Complicated, challenging, funny, stupid? Or is a franchise like The Housewives just fueling stereotypes by caricaturing women?
Recall that in the previous issue of “Archetypes” Megan talked with American columnist and author of “Sex and the City” Candace Bushnell. The episode was dedicated to “the freedom and fulfillment that comes from living outside the labels imposed by society.”
Meghan Markle launched her own podcast in August this year with the support of the Spotify streaming platform. Among the guests of the Duchess were tennis player Serena Williams, singer Mariah Carey, socialite Paris Hilton and other celebrities.
