Breaking News: Meghan Markle says she was ‘reduced to a bimbo’ on huge TV show…..See More

Meghan Markle reflected on how she was “reduced to a bimbo” on one TV show she worked on.
Meghan Markle didn’t have fond memories of her time on Deal or No Deal, recalling years after the fact that she felt as though the hit game show had “reduced her to a bimbo.”
The Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, have faced onslaughts of negative backlash over the years, including condemnation for “highly inappropriate” public comments.
In addition, she has faced ridicule that big names have turned down appearing on her Spotify podcast, Archetypes, and her claims about Netflix have been branded as “Not believable.”
However, despite the negative publicity, which has largely stemmed from her and Harry’s decision to step away from the royal family and start a new life in the U.S., Markle hasn’t hesitated to look back at her past–and share her thoughts about her roles prior to meeting her husband.
One such role she reflected on and didn’t have a positive view on, was her experience on the Howie Mandel-led game show, Deal or No Deal.
She reflected on it on a 2022 episode of her Archetypes podcast with Paris Hilton.
“Now, my experience on the show- which included holding said briefcase on stage, alongside 25 other women doing the same-was…for me, fascinating,” she said at the time.
There were times when I was on set at Deal of No Deal and thinking back to my time working as an intern at the U.S. Embassy in Argentina, in Buenos Aires…and being in the motorcade with the Secretary of Treasury at the time and being valued specifically for my brain. Here I was being valued for something quite the opposite.”
She later went on to admit that she was grateful it helped her pay her bills at the time, but she hated the way the show made her feel about herself.
