It was a floral babble.

Meghan Markle was caught in an awkward moment involving a bouquet of flowers as she mourned the loss of Queen Elizabeth II alongside her husband Prince Harry, as well as Prince William and Kate Middleton.

In a video captured by a mourner outside Windsor Castle on Saturday, Markle is seen holding the bouquet as a royal attendant approached her to ask if she could take the flowers from her hands. Markle appeared to decline the offer, telling her assistant that she would drop them off herself before turning back to the crowd with the bundle still in her arms.

But moments later, another attendee walked over to take the flowers Harry received from an audience member and then took Markle's bouquet as well. The "Suits" student seemed resistant at first, but after the aide showed up to explain the situation, Markle complied and handed over the flower arrangement.

"The bigwigs had to step in when Meghan refused to let go of the flowers that the first aid tried to take from her because she wanted to take them to the other tributes herself," she tweeted a fan account.

Several Twitter users surmised that Markle wanted to hold on to the flowers and place them on the fence to take photos.

"She wanted it for optics, but she was crushed by people who know exactly what she's trying to achieve." other floral tributes.”

“She probably wanted to be captured and filmed when she walks alone, puts flowers there and puts on an action. Actually, if you think about it, she really is a narcissist, always trying to make everything about her every single time! I'm glad they stopped her!” a second agreed.

“She is absolutely classless, as simple as that,” added a third.

However, other Twitter users gave Markle the benefit of the doubt, saying that she was just trying to mourn the Queen in peace.

"I can't believe the attack on Meghan has already started, it's the first time she's experienced this and she was doing her best, she probably promised to leave the flowers herself and that's what she was going to do until Harry told her it's okay pass them". done,” one person tweeted in defense of Markle.

“She probably didn't understand that flowers are taken from her for security reasons. After all, there could be a small explosive device, nerve gas, a poisonous insect, any number of things hidden in them,” explained a second royal protocol fan.

“Oh my god…… STOP HIM! Leave this poor woman alone. She takes a breath… ..this will play out as it will. Be glad the whole world isn't evaluating every move YOU make. Enough is enough,” another wrote.

Markle, 41, and Harry, 37, joined William and Middleton, both 40, in laying flowers outside Windsor Castle to pay tribute to the late monarch.

The outing marked the first time the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had appeared in public with the newly crowned Prince and Princess of Wales since Commonwealth Day in March 2020.
