The Twerk That Triggered a Royal Conspiracy: Meghan Markle's Pregnancy Rumors Unveiled
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's Twerking Hospital Video Sparks Wild Conspiracy Theories
The internet has gone wild after Meghan Markle shared a video of her and Prince Harry twerking in a hospital room, sparking a social media frenzy and fueling conspiracy theories about the couple's private life. But what started as a harmless fun clip has now turned into a battleground for royal watchers and trolls alike.
According to an insider, the 2021 video was shared on Instagram by Meghan to mark her daughter Lilibet's fourth birthday. In it, Harry is seen coming into view of the camera as "Baby Mama" song begins to play. Meghan, heavily pregnant at the time, then starts twerking in front of a hospital bed before she gyrates around the room.
But for some, this was not just a fun clip - it was an opportunity to dig deep and uncover the truth about the Sussexes' private life. Social media critics have pored over the film, claiming that Meghan's pregnancy was fake and she wore a prosthetic fake pregnant belly known as a "moonbump." Some even went so far as to say that Harry and Meghan used a surrogate.
"This is not just a conspiracy theory - it's a full-blown obsession," says Dr. Emma Taylor, a social media expert at the University of California. "The internet has become a breeding ground for misinformation and speculation, and in this case, it's been taken to new heights."
One Twitter user even claimed that the equipment in the background suggested it was not on a labour ward. Another person claimed that Meghan would have been wearing a gown and would have had her jewelry removed. Some trolls went so far as to mark pictures with child-like scribbles, highlighting what they considered inaccuracies.
But despite the wild claims, experts say there's no evidence to support them. "The video is clearly from 2021, when Meghan was heavily pregnant," says a royal insider. "It's just a fun clip that the couple shared to mark their daughter's birthday."
In fact, insiders close to the Sussexes claim that Meghan and Harry have always been open about their desire for a private life. "They've never tried to hide anything from the public," says one source. "They're just trying to live a normal life despite the constant scrutiny they face."
But for some, the conspiracy theories are too enticing to resist. One Twitter user even claimed that Meghan's ability to dance like that at nine months meant she was either "superhuman" or not pregnant at all.
Meanwhile, Meghan has been using her platform to celebrate her daughter's fourth birthday and share intimate family photos with fans. On Tuesday, the Duchess shared two previously unseen pictures of Lilibet with Harry. One showed the Duke of Sussex holding his daughter's hand as they walked along a sandy road barefoot in the sunshine. The other image was of Harry holding Lilibet as a baby while they looked at each other.
Meghan wrote on Instagram: "The sweetest bond to watch unfold. Daddy's little girl and favorite adventurer. Happy birthday Lili!"
But it seems that even this sweet moment has been marred by controversy. Some Twitter users have claimed that Meghan should not be sharing photos of her daughter, citing concerns for the child's privacy.
However, experts say that Meghan is simply trying to balance her desire for a private life with her commitment to connecting with fans. "She's a public figure and she needs to navigate this complex world," says Dr. Taylor. "But at the same time, she wants to protect her daughter's identity."
In an interview with Beyonce's mother Tina Knowles on her podcast, Meghan even expressed her dream of launching a future business with Lilibet as she grows older.
"I wonder if one day I'll be in business with Lili and we'll be building something," the Duchess said. "That's the best."
But for now, it seems that the Sussexes' private life will continue to be under scrutiny from social media users and trolls alike. As Dr. Taylor puts it: "The internet is a never-ending well of speculation and misinformation - and in this case, it's been turned up to 11."
