Duchess under constant watch

Earlier this month, Markle went to watch the US Open, to support her friend, Serena Williams, without her son Archie which led to mom-shaming by a writer. The writer of the British tabloid had criticized Markle for leaving her 4-month-old at home and compared the Duchess of Sussex to herself. "What right has she to not only mum shame but pass judgement again so strongly." Another Twitter reminded the writer about an incident when she had left her son in a hotel for six hours and went to attend an event with her husband. “Remember in 2016 when she left her 11-year old son alone in a hotel room while she and her husband were out partying?" wrote a user.
