One critic slammed Meghan Markle for not paying attention to details.

Critics were quick to slam Meghan for the ordeal, with one noting she’s so “unhygienic.”

“Didn’t she say she pays attention to every detail?” another person asked. “I’m working out while I write this, so I don’t have the exact quote, but if M said she pays attention to details, she’s wrong. Notice the bug! But she didn’t.”

Another person noted they saw the critter and “wouldn’t be surprised” if roaches were spotted “crawling over her food next.”

Martha Stewart Came After Meghan Markle’s As Ever BrandPhoto of Martha StewartSource: MEGA

Martha Stewart said she hopes Meghan Markle ‘knows what she’s talking about.’

Aside from social media critics, Martha Stewart recently came after Meghan for her As Ever brand.

“Meghan I don’t really know very well, and I hope she knows what she’s talking about,” the famous chef stated to a news outlet. “Authenticity, to me, is everything, and to be authentic and knowledgeable about your subject matter is extremely important.”

According to an insider, Stewart isn’t fond of Meghan.

“Martha has seen hundreds of Meghan types come and go — and says they all come in with the same self-inflated hype, only to find out it’s a whole new ball game when it comes down to brass tacks,” a source revealed to an outlet. “She’s tired of being quizzed by people over how she feels about Meghan’s venture because, honestly, it’s irritating and insulting to her that she’s being compared to a rookie.”

An insider said Martha Stewart didn’t ‘put a whole lot of faith’ in Meghan Markle ‘succeeding.’

The insider added the former Martha Stewart Show host spent “decades” building her brand, so “if Meghan thinks she can come along and replicate that with barely any experience simply because she’s married to a prince, she better think again.”

“Martha doesn’t put a whole lot of faith in her succeeding, but if she does prove to be any competition, Martha won’t hold back in trying to take her down,” the source claimed.

In May, while hosting an “In Conversation” chat with Benjamin Law, Stewart refused to answer a question about Meghan’s brand.

According to a news outlet, after a journalist asked about Meghan’s viral jams, she replied, “No, I’m not going there,” and moved on to the next question.
