Meghan Markle Struts Her Stuff At Paris Fashion Week & Everyone Is Saying The Same Shady Thing

Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex must feel like she's walking on air after attending her first-ever Paris Fashion Week. Unfortunately, netizens are walking all over her in the comment section. Why, exactly? Well, it seems that while she may have earned entry to Pierpaolo Piccioli's debut fashion show as Balenciaga's creative director, fans think her walk is far from runway-ready.

Meghan is trying something different this year, making her first appearance at the iconic Paris Fashion Week. However, some things never change, and her ability to attract haters online no matter what she does happens to be one of those things. Her appearance in Paris already ignited a brutal internet war among royal watchers thanks to a controversial Instagram Story she shared. And now she's getting flak for looking like a try-hard while attending a fashion show. On October 5, Vogue's official Instagram account shared a video of Meghan dressed in a dramatic monochromatic white look that she styled with simple, clean girl makeup and a slicked-back bun. Meghan might have been seated front-row at the Balenciaga show, but she was not walking the runway. Still, this didn't stop the comments from mocking her model walk — or lack thereof.

Meghan Markle's boots are apparently not made for walking

"Omg hahaha why [is] she walking like that?" is definitely not a comment anyone wants to see on an Instagram video of them walking. And yet Meghan Markle got exactly that in several different iterations, among other equally embarrassing comments on the Vogue Instagram post. "Ergh! The ego has landed," one Instagram user wrote. "That's the walk of delusions of [grandeur]," added another. One netizen commented, "It's like she's walking in slow motion, just to make sure everyone can see her!! We see her alright! And she looked ridiculous!"

At this point, Meghan certainly can't be surprised by the internet viewing her as peak performative. It often seems like everything Meghan does gives her haters more ammo regardless of whether the response actually seems deserved or not. So, in reality, there was probably no possible way Meghan could have walked that wouldn't have stirred up some hate. And she had at least one commenter coming to her walk's defense. "She's walking like that so she can get a slay picture.. any of you haters would do the same for a [fire] vogue pic," they wrote. Even so, hopefully Meghan doesn't plan on trying her hand at runway modeling anytime soon. We can only imagine how much hate her strut would get after that.
