A video making the rounds on social media shows Meghan awkwardly trying to coax a woman from standing next to Prince Harry at a polo event last week.

In the clip, the unidentified woman joins a group — including the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — on stage at the Grand Champions Polo Club in Wellington, Fla., on Friday and tried to pose next to Harry.
However, Meghan gestured to the woman and can be heard asking her, “Do you want to come over here?”
The woman was unmoved until Meghan smiled and motioned for the woman to stand on her left side, as someone else in the video tells the woman, “Come over here,” which she finally does.
Comments on social media about Meghan ranged from “controlling” and “mortifying” and “lacking in grace and generous spirit.”
Another accused the former Suits star of being “insecure” about her husband.
“That’s why she keeps clinging on him and any woman who [stands] beside him is told to stand beside her,” they sneered.

Meanwhile, Meghan’s brother, Thomas Markle Jr. has been slammed for a lengthy rant that was posted on his YouTube channel, in which he mocked his sister while wearing a long black wig and tiara with a pillow stuffed into his shirt.
In the video, Thomas calls himself “Me-gain,” addressing the camera as if he is speaking with his sister — though the two reportedly haven’t actually spoken in more than a decade.
“It’s not just your freedom of speech, Meghan, it’s everybody’s freedom of speech,” he says at one point.

He added in the bizarre rant: “So if you don’t like it, don’t watch, right? I’m gonna be riding those coattails, baby. Oh, yeah, if it wasn’t for Meghan Markle, I don’t know what I’d be doing.”

There is no love lost between the half-siblings.
He previously said Harry and Meghan’s marriage wouldn’t last, and called her a “jaded, shallow, conceited woman that will make a joke of you and the Royal Family heritage” — all to promote a reality TV show.
Thomas also made a commercial with a Meghan look-alike, which featured him stealing a case of beer from Buckingham Palace.
