Meghan Markle has accused her Toronto neighbors of making a deal with the paparazzi

“Suddenly everything in my life seemed very insular. All the curtains were drawn and the blinds were down. It was scary. My house was surrounded. The men sitting in the car were waiting for me to do something. My face was everywhere, my life was everywhere. Newspapers have taken over everything,” continues the former actress.

Elsewhere in the episode, the Duchess of Sussex described how she received death threats around the same time.

“I told the police, ‘I have six-year-old men sleeping in their cars around my house, following me everywhere I go, and if another woman from Toronto said I’m scared, you wouldn’t say—no. Do you think it’s harassment?’ she recalled.

“They said, ‘Yes, but we can’t do anything about who you date.’ So I have to live like this? Then I got death threats and things changed because I needed protection.”
