There’s A Special Kind Of Déjà Vu That Hits Whenever Meghan Markle Opens Her Mouth. Not The Nostalgic Kind. The Oh No, Not This Again Kind. And This Week’s Performance? A Full Rerun No One Asked For.
Meghan Is Now Advocating For “Less Laughter Emojis And More Real Laughter.” A Phrase So Aggressively Performative It Should Come With Jazz Hands. Screens Bad. Humans Good. Children Need Connection, Presence, Belly Laughs. Blah Blah Blah. Revolutionary — Except It’s Literally Princess Catherine’s Lane. Not Vibes. Not A Trend. Her Actual Life’s Work.
Welcome Back To Meghan Markle’s Only Consistent Brand Identity: Copy Catherine, Then Act Like She Invented Oxygen.
Let’s Start With The Receipts.
Princess Catherine Has Spent Years Quietly And Methodically Building The Centre For Early Childhood — A Research-Driven Initiative Focused On Children’s Mental Health, Early Development, And Screen Exposure. In October 2025, Catherine Co-Wrote An Essay With Harvard Professor Robert Waldinger Titled The Power Of Human Connection In A Distracted World. It Warned That Early Screen Exposure Is Fueling An Epidemic Of Disconnection.
Her Words Were Precise. Grounded. Backed By Research.
“We’re Physically Present, But Mentally Absent, Unable To Fully Engage With The People Right In Front Of Us.”
That Line Didn’t Come From A PR Brainstorm. It Came From Academic Collaboration, Lived Observation, And Actual Responsibility.
Now Enter Meghan Markle, Stage Left — Ring Light On, Filter Heavy.
In A Soft-Focus Webcam Discussion For Oprah Daily With Authors Jonathan Haidt And Caroline Price, Meghan Leaned Into The Camera Like She Was About To Sell Essential Oils And Declared:
“You Cannot Replace The Feeling Of A Deep, Guttural Belly Laugh.”
First Of All — No.
A “Guttural Belly Laugh” Sounds Like Someone Choking On A Potato. It Is Not Cute. It Is Not Aspirational. And Second — No One Asked.
Let’s Be Honest. Meghan Copying Ideas Isn’t New. It’s Her USP. Mental Health? Copied. Women’s Empowerment? Copied. Childhood Development? Copied. Nature Healing? Copied. Quiet Reflection? Copied. Even The Timing — Dropping This Just As Catherine Was Being Celebrated On Her Birthday — Copied With Surgical Precision.
Meghan Claimed Encouraging Children To Laugh Helps Parents “Mimic Presence.” But Here’s The Thing: Normal Parents Don’t Need A Podcast To Remind Them To Engage With Their Kids. If You Have To Schedule Presence, That’s Already A Red Flag.
And Then There’s The Elephant In The Montecito Mansion.
Harry And Meghan Lecture About Being Present While Meghan Is Reportedly Emailing Her Children Instead Of Being With Them. They Preach Online Safety While Carefully Curating Their Own Children As PR Props — Visible Only When Useful, Hidden When Accountability Knocks. Pick A Lane.
Now Compare The Optics.
The Wales Children — George, Charlotte, And Louis — Are Confident, Socially At Ease, Affectionate, And Clearly Bonded With Their Parents And Each Other. You Can See The Mirroring. The Security. The Real Connection.
The Sussex Children? Rarely Seen. And When They Are, The Images Feel Stiff. Detached. Lily Appeared Rigid In That Christmas Photo. Archie Looked Starved For Affection. No Ease. No Sibling Chemistry. Humans Are Very Good At Reading Body Language — And This Is What People Are Reacting To, Not “Hate.”
When Catherine Talks About Human Connection, It Feels Grounded. When Meghan Does It, It Feels Psychotic-Adjacent. Same Words. Completely Different Energy.
While Meghan Was Squinting Through A Beauty Filter, Catherine Quietly Released The Final Installment Of Her Mother Nature Series On Her Birthday. No Merch. No Monetization. No Forced Smiles. At One Point, Catherine Casually Dipped Her Hand Into Water, Revealing Her Sapphire Engagement Ring — Diana’s Ring. Calm. Regal. Unbothered.
Catherine Didn’t Explain Herself. She Didn’t Need To.
Real Luxury Doesn’t Scream. Real Influence Doesn’t Beg. Catherine Doesn’t Monetize Her Motherhood Or Attach Affiliate Links To Her Values. She Amplifies Causes Without Centering Herself.
Meghan, By Contrast, Attaches Herself To Other People’s Work And Hopes It Sticks. She Doesn’t Build Platforms — She Parasites Them.
Character Matters. Catherine Battled Cancer Without Complaint. Meghan Complained About Neutrals And Pantyhose. That’s The Comparison.
Meghan Thought The Monarchy Needed Her Narrative. But Catherine Is The Future — A Non-Aristocrat Who Understood The Assignment: Evolve Slowly. Serve Quietly. Build Something That Lasts.
That’s Why One Woman Leads With Substance. And The Other Leads With Imitation.
No Amount Of Guttural Laughter Is Going To Change That.
Meghan always steals other’s words, copies their style. She and wore Diana’s fragrance in trapping Harry. By the way, She and Harry never met in the two different ways she once said. They met when exfriend/lover, Marcus Anderson, introduced them at Soho House where he worked. So much salad comes out of MM’s mouth.
