Meghan Markle UNMASKS daughter Lili to sell jam on Instagram causing DISGUST from Royal Family
"Meghan Markle UNMASKS daughter Lili to sell jam on Instagram causing DISGUST from Royal Family" is the newest royal Short on Dan Wootton Outspoken, the channel the former tabloid showbiz editor runs around his weekday live show. As the title tells it, Meghan posted on Instagram to sell her jam with her daughter in the picture, and Wootton says the royal family did not take it well. That reaction is his account, not the Palace's.
The Short is cut from a longer royal conversation posted the same day, in which Wootton teams up with the royal YouTuber According2Taz and also turns to Chelsy Davy, Prince Harry's former girlfriend. On a busy Wednesday for the channel, the royal story is what people pressed play on. The Short passed 160,000 views within nine hours, about ten times a usual first day for his Shorts, and the longer version is past 200,000. Wednesday's full live show, with its panel on British politics, trails both.
The comment section filled quickly too: more than a thousand comments in nine hours, where a Short here usually collects a few hundred across its whole first day. The jar itself barely comes up. Many viewers write about an apology they say Meghan made. Others revisit stories she has told about her youth, from selling Girl Scout cookies to an early job at a frozen yogurt shop, and a few bring up her thanks to the Sussex Squad, her online supporters.
The jam has a history on this channel. Meghan's As Ever brand also drove Wootton's fastest video a few days ago, that time about a kitchen and an oven, as we reported here.
