In what’s becoming one of the most divisive online controversies involving the Duchess of Sussex, Part 2 of the video series “Was She a Yacht Girl?” has now been released by royal commentator and YouTuber HG Tudor, continuing the speculative investigation into Meghan Markle’s life before joining the royal family.

The second installment claims to feature statements from an anonymous source who allegedly worked in Meghan’s proximity during her acting career. The video strongly implies, without offering solid evidence, that Meghan was once part of a circle of women invited to exclusive yacht parties hosted by wealthy elites—what the internet has dubbed the “yacht girl” scene.

Using charged language and vague references, HG Tudor escalates the narrative, suggesting these gatherings went beyond luxury networking and into more transactional arrangements. One of the more controversial moments in the video includes the description of this subculture as a “soft form of prostitution,” a term that has sparked intense backlash on social media.

While no verifiable documentation, photos, or named witnesses are presented, the video’s tone is confident and provocative—enough to draw millions of views and reignite both support and criticism online.

Supporters of Meghan have quickly labeled the content as “character defamation wrapped in commentary,” with many pointing out the dangerous precedent of using unnamed sources to build harmful narratives. “This is just modern-day public shaming without facts,” one royal watcher wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Others, however, defend the video series, arguing that it simply revisits long-standing gossip in an age of celebrity accountability. “People deserve to know who’s behind the public persona,” one user commented.

The release of Part 2 highlights the ongoing public fascination with Meghan Markle’s transformation from Hollywood actress to duchess—and now global figurehead. The video touches on themes of ambition, image-making, and class mobility, which continue to fuel polarized discussions around her legacy.

To date, there has been no official response from Meghan or the Sussex team regarding either part of the video series.

As speculation swirls, it’s a stark reminder of how modern royalty exists in the crosshairs of gossip, commentary, and unrelenting online scrutiny.
