Meghan Markle's co-star hits back at Duchess amid claims she was treated like a 'bimbo'

Meghan Markle’s Archetypes podcast dropped its latest episode earlier this week where she sat down with Paris Hilton to discuss the ‘bimbo’ stereotypes.

During the interview, the Duchess of Sussex, 41, spoke to Paris, also 41, about her time as a “briefcase girl” on Deal or No Deal and claimed she was “objectified”.

However, her reality star co-star on the show fired back at her claims that she was “reduced to a bimbo” on the game show and was only valued for her “beauty”, not her “brains”.

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Claudia Jordan, who starred on the show from 2005 to 2009, explained that the show “never treated them like bimbos” and that it helped provide “so many opportunities” for them. “For clarity - yes getting a modelling gig on a game show isn't necessarily about your intellect, but every show the executive producers picked five models with the most outgoing and fun personalities to place mics on, who they knew would engage with the contestants,” she wrote in a post shared to her Instagram Stories.
