Meghan Markle’s “panic-stricken” business approach isn’t serving her, according to a royal biographer.
Former Vanity Fair editor Tina Brown blasted the Duchess of Sussex for “trying to be a sort of instant Beyoncé or instant Michelle Obama” with back-to-back launches of her podcast, Netflix show, lifestyle brand and ShopMy page.
Brown labeled the “Suits” alum’s numerous projects as “enormously shallow,” advising her to “just do one of those things” at a time on a recent “Mixed Signals” episode.
“Do it really well, and then do something else,” the 71-year-old said.
“She is so ADD,” she continued. “She just never stops making announcements and never really follows through.
“It’s like, ‘I’m gonna do a cooking show! Nah — I’m going to be a podcaster. And hello, hello, I’ve got a beauty line!’” Brown added.
The “Diana Chronicles” author claimed Markle, 43, can’t measure up to Beyoncé, also 43, or Obama, 61, because she’s “devoid of self-confidence” and doesn’t have “the background that has built those people.”
Lacking a “very strong structure” to stand on isn’t Markle’s only issue, Brown alleged.
She also labeled the former actress “unadvisable,” saying, “She’s had a lot of good people willing to give advice to her … and she kind of appears to be extremely motivated by it. And then she doesn’t do it, and does something else.”
Since Markle has allegedly “worn out her advisory circle,” Brown insisted the “Deal or No Deal” alum turns to husband Prince Harry instead.
“Unfortunately, she is the major adviser to Harry,” Brown claimed. “She doesn’t take advice, and he only takes hers. That’s not a very good combination really for either of them.”
Markle’s rep has yet to respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The journalist’s rant echoed similar complaints she made about the “too damn impatient” businesswoman last month.
Brown has long been critical of Markle.
The retired royal, meanwhile, sold out of her first As Ever product drop earlier this month within one hour.
Additionally, her Netflix show, “With Love, Meghan,” was renewed for a second season days after its March premiere.
