Meghan Markle is receiving backlash for comparing her marriage to Nelson Mandela’s release.

Meghan said: “He looked at me, and he’s just like light. He said, ‘I just need you to know: When you married into this family, we rejoiced in the streets the same we did when Mandela was freed from prison.'”
According to UK’s Daily Express Earlier, a man claiming to be the only South African cast member denied ever having met Meghan Markle.
The publication reported “Although there are thought to be no further South African actors starring in the film, there were other South African nationals involved in the movie who may have attended the premiere.”
Express.co.uk said it South African singer, Lindiwe Mkhize, who sang Circle of Life in the 2019 remake and has also been an actor in the stage play, was also in attendance at the event.
Dr Kani said: “I have never met Meghan Markle.
