Why Meghan Markle Reportedly 'Doesn't Care About Haters In Britain' Calling Her Twerking Video 'Vulgar'

Meghan Markle recently sparked controversy in the UK with a playful twerking video filmed before daughter Lilibet's birth.

However, it has been revealed that the Duchess of Sussex is thrilled with the positive response from Americans and unfazed by criticism as she views the moment as relatable and on-brand.

Meanwhile, Meghan Markle is reportedly launching a rosé wine under her lifestyle brand and plans to expand its alcohol and gourmet range to include ready-made cocktails, flower-infused gin, and more.

Meghan stirred up a wave of controversy in the UK last week after sharing a playful video of herself twerking in the hospital before giving birth to her daughter, Lilibet. While some British critics labeled the clip "cringeworthy," the duchess appears unfazed by the backlash.

According to the Daily Mail, sources close to the couple shared that Meghan is actually pleased with the response the video has received, particularly in the United States.

"Meghan is very pleased with the video. In the UK, everyone's reaction has been a bit prudish, but everywhere else, particularly in America and especially with young people, it has been a huge hit," the source said.

The insider continued, "She and her team count it [the video] as a 'win,' which can only boost sales. Her new products are marketed to Americans rather than the UK market."

Unbothered by negative headlines from across the pond, Meghan reportedly views the viral moment as a relatable and lighthearted expression of motherhood.

"Meghan doesn't care about the haters in Britain calling her vulgar," the source added. "Americans thought the twerking video was hilarious and relatable."

The conspiracies about Meghan's pregnancies were reignited after the former actress shared a video of herself and Harry dancing in what appeared to be a hospital room, during a lighthearted moment meant to induce labor before Lilibet's birth.

The clip showed a visibly pregnant Meghan twerking playfully in a black gown, while Harry danced alongside her in a grey hoodie and jeans.

Posting the video on Instagram to celebrate Lilibet's fourth birthday, Meghan wrote: "Four years ago today, this also happened."

She continued, "Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work - there was only one thing left to do!"

Meanwhile, Meghan is gearing up to unveil the next chapter of her lifestyle brand, As Ever, with the launch of her own rosé wine, set to debut in just three weeks.

The upcoming rosé will be made from grapes grown in California's Santa Ynez Valley, a region prized for its ideal winemaking climate, and just a short drive from the Sussexes' Montecito home.

According to an insider familiar with the project, the soon-to-launch "wine is only the first product in what she [Meghan] and Netflix hope will be a substantial alcohol range, which will include ready-made cocktails and luxury items like flower-infused gin."

The upcoming release will mark Meghan's official entry into the celebrity wine scene, drawing on her long-standing appreciation for fine wine.

Notably, her former lifestyle blog, The Tig, was named after her favorite Italian red, Tignanello. Fans of her Netflix series "With Love, Meghan" have also noted the duchess's frequent enjoyment of wine during intimate conversations with guests.

Jessica Gasca, founder of Story Of Soil winery in nearby Los Olivos, shared insight into how Meghan might be crafting her wine.

She said, "The Santa Ynez Valley, in Meghan's backyard, is a prime location for growing all varietals because we have a mountain range that runs East-West with a microclimate that allows warm temperatures during the day for growth and cool ocean winds and fog at night to preserve the acidity."

"Meghan could be partnering with a good winemaker and putting her own label on their wine, or she could go in and taste wines from a load of barrels and say 'I'll take this one and that one' and produce her own wine," Gasca added, per the Daily Mail.

However, Amber Hogan, a winemaker from Santa Barbara, expressed surprise at the project, noting that she hasn't "heard about Meghan getting into the wine business, which is surprising because it's a very small industry locally and we all talk."

In addition to her foray into wine and spirits, Meghan plans to continue expanding the gourmet side of the brand.

Following the buzz around her raspberry jam, the source shared that As Ever fans should "expect the new products to include more jams like strawberry." They added: "She has been exploring lemon curd, which is a very English thing. It's not something most Americans know about."

At the heart of the brand is Meghan's personal touch as she has taken on the role of "chief storyteller," shaping each product with narrative intention.

Meghan "has very clear views about the stories she wants to tell around her products," the source explained. "Each one means something to her, Harry and their kids, and, of course, in Meghan's world, everything is perfect."
