Despite the unsettling incident, Meghan managed to maintain her composure and the ceremony continued as planned. According to those close to her, though the comment did upset her, she chose to focus on the positives.

This incident serves as more than just a random occurrence. It highlights the scrutiny Meghan continues to face concerning her status. Questions about her title and position have persisted since she and Prince Harry stepped back from their royal responsibilities.

These questions intensified after the couple moved to the United States, sparking a range of opinions, not all of which align with each other.

At the end of the day, there are moments when we all must confront uncomfortable truths. For Meghan Markle, the ESPY Awards incident is one such moment, which she will need to address in her own way, whether publicly or privately.
