If it weren’t so gross it would almost be funny how pressed some of these men get that they were rejected by her.
This article is disgusting. He thought she would be ‘easy’ and then an ‘easy’ person turned him down.
He’s gross. Does he not realize this makes him look even stupider.
This dude is gross and didn’t deserve such a polite refusal.
From the article:
“It was a very soft sell,” he explained. “It was, ‘Hey, I know the new season … is coming out if you ever want to come on the show to promote it.’ It was really professional.”
“It was ice cold,” the sports personality said when discussing the Suits star’s response. “It was, ‘Oh, I don’t know anything about sports, but thanks for the offer.'”
Sounds like she was perfectly polite in her response. Ok magazine and this dude are trash for trying to trash her for turning him down. She didn’t owe him anything.
This is classic negging. If i lower her self-esteem, she might go out with me.
Save yourself a click. Here are the relevant passages from the article:
>[**Meghan Markle**](https://okmagazine.com/t/meghan-markle/) was seemingly selective with her dating pool before snagging [**Prince Harry**](https://okmagazine.com/t/prince-harry/), but former ESPN host **Ryen Russillo** revealed the Duchess of Sussex wasn’t interested in spending time with the sports commentator when she was single.
>“It was all of the [*Sports Illustrated*] swimsuit models. So, nobody was really paying any attention to Markle,” Russillo told **Bill Simmons** on “The Bill Simmons” podcast.
>“I was like, ‘That’s my lane. She’s probably doubting herself a little bit right now,’” Russillo continued. “She’s never been more obtainable.”
>The duo met at a celebrity flag football game in February 2014, which [**Chrissy Teigen**](https://okmagazine.com/t/chrissy-teigen/), [**Hannah Davis**](https://okmagazine.com/t/hannah-davis/) and [**Nina Agdal**](https://okmagazine.com/t/nina-agdal/) all participated in.

Despite his efforts, the Duchess of Sussex wasn’t interested in meeting with Russillo.
>“It was a very soft sell,” he explained. “It was, ‘Hey, I know the new season … is coming out if you ever want to come on the show to promote it.’ It was really professional.”
>“It was ice cold,” the sports personality said when discussing the *Suits* star’s response. “It was, ‘Oh, I don’t know anything about sports, but thanks for the offer.'”
>[*OK!* previously reported](https://okmagazine.com/p/meghan-markle-prince-harry-continue-work-team-professional-separation-rumors/) Simmons slammed the Sussexes in 2023 after [Spotify parted ways](https://okmagazine.com/p/prince-harry-and-meghan-markle-dumped-spotify/) with the couple.
>”I wish I had been involved in the ‘Meghan and [**Harry**](https://okmagazine.com/t/prince-harry/) leave Spotify’ negotiation. ‘The F——- Grifters.’ That’s the podcast we should have launched with them,” the executive said in an episode of his eponymous podcast.
>”I have got to get drunk one night and tell the story of the Zoom I had with Harry to try and help him with a podcast idea,” Simmons added. “It’s one of my best stories… F— them. The grifters.”
Whatever you think of her, I hope we can agree that men who exploit women’s insecurities or try to neg them so that they become insecure, are disgusting.
So we are criticizing women for saying no? This is a new low even for OK!
He honestly thinks he sounds like he’s the one who came out better in this story. She sounded very polite in her refusal to go on the show and he blatantly states that he went after her because ‘she wasn’t getting as much attention as the swimsuit models’. What an ass.
I didn’t think could like Ryen Russillo any less but glad to see I was wrong. What a sad little man.
This is so weird and gross. I don’t particularly like her but really, criticizing a woman for turning you down when you feel that she’s “obtainable”? 🤮
Good for her for turning down this gross sleaze bag.
Is this supposed to make her look BAD?? If anything this makes her MORE endearing to me. Try again journalists.
