Life in the global spotlight might be more than she signed up for.
Meghan Markle is finding the public scrutiny and nonstop rumors about her demanding behavior very difficult to deal with as she prepares to welcome her first child with Prince Harry, Us Weekly reports.
“Meghan has so much on her plate, between being pregnant and dealing with the public backlash, and she’s finding the whole situation incredibly stressful," a source dished to the mag.
Since joining the royal family, the former actress has been accused of being a "pushy" princess, starting a feud between her husband his brother Prince William, clashing with Kate, and being a social climber, and she's not having an easy time staying silent amid all the rumors.
"[Meghan is] definitely bothered by all the reports and speculation. Some things are just hard to stay away from," the source added.
In other Duchess of Sussex news, her estranged half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., just got engaged to his girlfriend of two years Darlene Blount, and he plans to invite Meghan and Harry to the wedding in hopes that their attendance could end the family rift. Keep dreaming, bud!
"Absolutely I think our wedding will bring the family closer together. It’s hopeful that if Meghan and Harry came and my father [Thomas Markle Sr.], Meghan and Harry could spend some time with him and that would be good," he told the Daily Mail.
"Starting out the new year by bringing our family closer together is definitely on the to-do list. It’s very important. [The wedding] would be a perfect time for Meg to get together with my dad — who is her father as well — and just put all the past behind everybody and move on and be a closer family again. My dad would really enjoy that. Possibly it will bring the family closer — especially if everybody shows up," he added.
Seems like she's learning the hard way that being part of The Firm isn't all it's cracked up to be!
