It appears that Brooke Shields’ critical comments about Meghan Markle have been quietly erased from the internet.
Shields appeared on a June 2025 episode of India Hicks’ podcast, where she mentioned a past alleged interaction with Meghan. (Hicks is the goddaughter of Meghan’s father-in-law, King Charles III, who is currently estranged from the Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry.)
Shields and Meghan had previously shared the stage during a March 2024 panel at SXSW titled, “Breaking Barriers, Shaping Narratives: How Women Lead On and Off the Screen.”
On Hicks’ podcast, Shields said that Meghan told a story about writing a letter in support of gender equality when she was 11. She described the tale as too “serious.”
