Dara Huang, who shares a son with Princess Beatrice's husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, has shared her thoughts on Meghan Markle.
The British American architect, 42, was reacting to a widely discussed moment from the Duchess of Sussex's new Netflix series 'With Love, Meghan'.
"That was weird,” Huang wrote bluntly in response to a clip shared by the Daily Mail, Hello! Magazine reported.
The moment she slammed, which has gone viral since its original broadcast, occurred during the second episode of Meghan's cooking series when the Duchess corrected actress Mindy Kaling after being referred to by her former surname.

The exchange took place as Kaling reminisced about childhood dining habits, joking: "People wouldn't believe that Meghan Markle ate at Jack in the Box."
Meghan, 43, took the opportunity to clarify her preference, saying: "It's so funny, too, that you keep saying, 'Meghan Markle.' You know, I'm Sussex now."
The Duchess then explained the significance of the name change, adding: "You have kids, and you go, 'No, I share my name with my children.'"
Kaling appeared to take the correction in stride, nodding in agreement and responding: "Now I know, and I love it."
The 'weird' moment saw Meghan correct actress Mindy Kaling over her last name.

Wolfie divides his time between his mother's home in London and the Cotswolds residence where Beatrice and Edoardo live.

Following the viral exchange with Meghan, Kaling addressed the moment during an appearance on The View.
When host Alyssa Farah Griffin asked about the experience, Kaling admitted she was surprised by the strong reaction.
"You know, I had a great time. I noticed that whenever I do something, anything related to Meghan, it becomes... big news," the actress said.
Kaling revealed she barely remembered the interaction, which had been filmed nearly nine months earlier.
"We were making sandwiches, and then they'll push in on my face on TikTok and they'll be like, 'Look at this emotion you felt,' and I honestly didn't even remember it," she explained.
Despite the divisive reaction, Kaling praised Meghan, saying: "I loved my time with Meghan. I'm also like, let her promote her show... It was great and really fascinating seeing the reaction."
