Meghan Markle left ‘squirming’ as Mariah Carey brands her a ‘diva’ in new podcast

Towards the end of their chat, Meghan discussed Mariah’s infamous diva-like antics and the Duchess asked whether it was a “defence mechanism” because of the way she had been portrayed by the media.Meghan said: “Even when it is being used against you, it almost feels like there were moments where you played into it because it does feel like a defence mechanism and a coat of arms.”Mariah said she “agreed” with Meghan, but noted that most of the time she puts on the diva act “for laughs”.Meghan continued: “I think it's really important for people to remember that there might be this persona, and yes the diva thing we can play into, I mean, it’s not something that I connect to but for you It's been a huge part...”Mariah quickly jumped in and exclaimed: “You give us diva moments sometimes Meghan!

Don’t act like...” Before Meghan asked the singer to clarify: “What kind of diva moments do I give you?!”The Fantasy singer then replied: “It’s also the visual, a lot of it is the visual.”After Mariah had left, Meghan defensively told her listeners that the moment “stopped me in my tracks” and made her “squirm”.She said, sounding flustered: “My mind was just spinning with what nonsense she must have read or clicked on to make her say that.”Meghan took a sigh of relief when she explained Mariah meant “the way that I dress” and her “fabulousness”.
