The Duchess of Sussex appears to have a history with the word "difficult" as she herself was branded by it in the past.
Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex and wife of Britain’s Prince Harry, has offered an unusual take on the meaning of a particular word when it is used to describe a woman.
Speaking on an episode of her Archetypes podcast titled “To ‘B’ or not to ‘B’”, Markle argued that the word “difficult” is used to “gaslight” strong women.
She then proceeded to speculate that the word “difficult” in such context is “really just a euphemism or is probably not even a euphemism”, before adding: “It's really a code word for the B-word” – apparently referring to the word “b*tch”.
