Here is how John Legend described his run-in with Meghan Markle, and let’s just say… he’s not holding back

John Legend Regrets Meeting Meghan Markle, Calls Her a Bully With Bad Energy

“She walked in, and the energy just shifted — not in a good way.” With that single line, John Legend sent shockwaves through fans this week, after opening up about his less-than-royal encounter with Meghan Markle. The usually polished, smooth-talking hitmaker did not mince his words — and what he revealed has left the internet in meltdown.

Legend, known for his charm, class, and easygoing nature, rarely speaks ill of anyone in the public eye. But when it came to Meghan, he dropped a bombshell that no one expected. He admitted that meeting the Duchess of Sussex was one of those rare moments he genuinely regretted. Why? Because according to John, Meghan carried an energy so heavy and unsettling that it left a mark on him long after their paths crossed.

SCROLL DOWN TO CONTINUE

“She wasn’t just cold,” a source close to the star explained. “John felt she had this air of superiority, like the room revolved around her. And when he tried to strike up a conversation, she dismissed him in a way that stung.”

The word he reportedly used? Bully. Yes — the same Meghan Markle who has often spoken about kindness and compassion was, in John’s view, the complete opposite in private. Fans are now buzzing, wondering if this is yet another crack in the carefully crafted royal narrative Meghan has worked so hard to build.

Social media exploded within minutes of his comments circulating, with hashtags like #JohnVsMeghan and #RoyalEnergy trending worldwide. Some sided with Legend, calling his honesty “refreshing” and “long overdue.” Others rushed to Meghan’s defense, insisting the singer must have misread the situation.

But what’s undeniable is the ripple effect this revelation has caused. Meghan has long been accused of being difficult behind palace doors — from staff walkouts to reports of diva demands — and now a respected global superstar has added fuel to the fire.

Whether you believe John or not, his confession has peeled back yet another layer of the royal soap opera that never seems to end. And if Meghan thought she had escaped the shadow of royal controversy, John Legend has just reminded the world that the drama follows her wherever she goes.

Because when a man as universally admired as John Legend calls you out… people listen.
