Meghan Markle's former celebrity supporter has turned her back on the actress turned royal. Katherine Ryan was previously a supporter of the Duchess of Sussex, and had previously said of her part in the Royal Family : "I love Meghan Markle ’s voice and her confidence to challenge the norm and what’s expected of her in that role." However, following the release of Meghan's new Netflix series With Love, Katherine has made her feelings about Meghan very clear, and accused hr of "lying" about knowing who Prince Harry was. Katherine also claimed that Meghan was putting on an "act" that was very "manicured" and "forced", as she slammed the Netflix star. Speaking on her podcast, Telling Everybody Everything, she said: "I liked Meghan Markle. I was rooting for Meghan Markle... though she is very Hollywood - even for me - and I don't like that in people. I see now, and maybe it's just the projects she's choosing, it does feel like she has lied about whether she knew who Prince Harry was, and these details about her childhood change and don't add up. "She said on her new Netflix show that they ate TV dinners growing up. But then in an old interview, she was like, "we would eat farm fresh". Her whole act just seems very manicured and very forced." Meghan's Netflix show was released earlier this month, but it was heavily criticised by fans, who fumed over the expensive recipes and her own father even accused her of being "unauthentic". Now, one of the crew working on Meghan's show has lifted the lid on what she was really like. They told People: "She made sure everyone felt included, from Netflix executives to our director to every PA on set. No one was left out. "Most of the time, we’re expected to fade into the background, to be invisible. But in this show, we were part of it. We were included. It was a very unique and refreshing experience." Meghan herself added of working on set: "It feels as though we’re just spending time together, which is what it ended up being. I’d make a recipe and say, ‘Everyone try this,’ and there are certain dishes where you just watch everyone flock in. I’d say, ‘We’ve run out of spoons!’ It ended up feeling so communal, and that’s the spirit of the show." The show will make a return as Netflix have commissioned a second series. In one scene from the first series, Meghan corrected her friend Mindy for using the wrong surname. She told her friend: "You keep saying, Meghan Markle, you know, I’m Sussex now. You have kids, and you go, ‘now I share my name with my children’… I didn’t know how meaningful it would be to me, but it just means so much to go ‘this is our family name, our little family name.'"
