Claims that Meghan Markle was publicly roughed up during a recent event in Washington, DC have surfaced online led by British journalist Dan Wootton.
But there is no independent verification of the alleged incident.
The journalist said that Meghan Markle was ravaged on October 14 at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit.
Dan Wootton, known as a staunch critic of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, uploaded a video titled “Heckled & laughed at – Meghan Markle on stage in Washington DC after telling more lies.”
The clip’s description claims Markle was humiliated by a small audience who questioned her business achievements.
However, a search of major news outlets and local coverage turns up no credible reports confirming that the confrontation took place.
The lack of wider media coverage is notable given the high visibility of Meghan’s public appearances.
Observers familiar with royal media coverage say that if such an incident had occurred, it likely would have been picked up by more news organizations or attendees.
