Meghan Markle looks 'unrecognizable' after giving birth, Wendy Williams says
Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and baby Archie made their debut for the cameras as a family on Wednesday, and Wendy Williams was living for it.
Known for her blunt and often controversial takes on celebrity news stories, Williams kept things light and heaped praise upon the Duchess. “You know what I like about Meghan Markle? I like that Meghan Markle gained weight like everybody else,” she said. “Look at those upper arms! They look like yours and mine, don’t they?”
Despite the compliments, Wendy couldn’t help but share her suspicions that Markle’s motives for marrying Prince Harry might not be pure. “I still think though that she has something up her sleeve, you know what I mean? Like, he loves her just a lot a bit more than she loves him,” Williams said to a seemingly disapproving studio audience. “She knows exactly what keys to turn to keep his clock right where it needs to be, and the royal family will not boss her around. I like it!”
Most viewers on Twitter agreed with Williams’s assessment of the Duchess’s post-baby appearance:
I love that #meghanmarkle came to talk to the press about their new baby looking like a new mom does, still with a little belly and extra weight in her face. Like, it’s been 3 days, she’s human. Good for you, girl 🙌🏼🙌🏼

I'm not a big follower of the British royal family, but I truly appreciate that Meghan Markle is keeping it real with her two-days-post-childbirth body.

Thank you Meghan Markle for showing the world what a beautiful new mom looks like. Rocking a dress that accentuated her recovering body with pride, and just enough makeup to still show what sleepless nights can be like in the beginning.

I love that Meghan Markle has shown everyone what a post baby body actually looks like, the bump doesn’t just disappear & she’s spent the last 9 months growing a beautiful tiny human, she doesn’t deserve the comments that are out there about her ‘weight’ 🙄

But some thought that talking about her weight in any context was inappropriate:
i want to throw up seeing comments about meghan markle after she LEGIT gave birth to a new life talking about her weight, she looks rough and how she still looks pregnant. honestly, who raised you.

Are people really commenting on Meghan Markle's weight? She's just had a baby. Yes, that bump stays there for longer than you'd want it to.
