5<\/p>\n She fears her injuries may lead to permanent scarring and is seeking compensationCredit: Courtesy of Robin Patrick<\/p>\n The Royal fan, from Maryland, had tried the recipe after seeing it in Meghan’s Netfflix show, With Love, Meghan<\/a>.<\/p>\n Speaking to RadarOnline.com<\/a>, she later claimed she experienced “intense burning” and “ulcers” after using the salts – and was still feeling the effects.<\/p>\n The recipe – which Meg, 43, made for pal Daniel Marin<\/a> on Episode 1 of the show<\/a> – contains Epsom salts, Himalayan salt, arnica\u00a0oil, and lavender\u00a0oil.<\/p>\n But Epsom salts are not recommended for those suffering from diabetes<\/a> – as they can lead to skin drying and cracking.<\/p>\n Often, diabetics already have dry feet or nerve damage on their legs and feet, according to MedicalNewsToday<\/a> – so further irritation risks causing wounds or infections, which are likely to heal more slowly in those with high blood sugar.<\/p>\n Robin, however, has threatened to sue both production companies behind the show – Intellectual Property Corporation (IPC) and Archewell Productions – as well as Netflix<\/a> and Meghan herself for $10 million (\u00a37million) in damages.<\/p>\n In a letter on behalf on IPC, seen by The Independent<\/a>, Cameron said the company regretted to hear of any injuries Robin “may have suffered”.<\/p>\n However, he asserted that none of the parties responsible for the series owed her a duty of care “because you do not have a special relationship with any of them as a matter of law”.<\/p>\n There was nothing “inherently dangerous” about Meghan’s recipe, he added – and therefore it did not constitute a “clear and present danger to the public”.<\/p>\n The lawyer also argued that Robin had herself admitted that the cause of her injuries was her diabetes.<\/p>\n Desperate Meghan, Harry and Andrew just can\u2019t let go of Royals – they\u2019re all clinging on for status <\/p>\n He went on: “The use of Epsom salts is contraindicated for individuals with diabetes except on the advice of a physician.<\/p>\n “It was not foreseeable that you would disregard the instructions on the Epsom salt packaging in attempting to make and use your own bath salts.<\/p>\n “For this separate reason, there can be no negligence claim against anyone involved in the production or distribution of the Series.”<\/p>\n Robin claimed the damages were necessary to cover a host of mental and physical ailments caused by the bath salts.<\/p>\n These allegedly included “emotional distress, potential post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD<\/a>), loss of confidence in appearance, disfigurement, shortened life expectancy, and long-term medical care for injuries that may worsen over time.”<\/p>\n She is also seeking $75,000 (\u00a356,000) in compensatory damages to cover medical expenses and other costs.<\/p>\n However, Robin said she was willing to resolve the matter if a financial settlement was agreed outside court<\/a>.<\/p>\n Recalling the experience, she told RadarOnline: “As the water level rose to cover my legs and reached my buttocks, I began to feel burning and significant discomfort in those areas…<\/p>\n 5<\/p>\n She claimed it had left her unable to take warm showers or cover the area with clothesCredit: Courtesy of Robin Patrick 5<\/p>\n The recipe contains Epsom salts, Himalayan salt, arnica\u00a0oil, and lavender\u00a0oilCredit: Netflix<\/p>\n “That evening, while showering, I experienced intense burning as water contacted the affected areas, which had developed into ulcers.”<\/p>\n She added: “Since the incident, I have endured persistent burning, discomfort, and the emergence of new blister-like sores and ulcers daily.”<\/p>\n Some skincare<\/a> experts previously raised concerns over the recipe, warning that its high concentration of essential oils – without being diluted by a carrier oil – could lead to skin irritation. <\/p>\n The Sussexes have been contacted for comment.<\/p>\n This week, Meghan revealed she had used an ancient Indian medicine doctor<\/a> and ingested mushrooms to help cope with pregnancy.<\/p>\n Speaking to businesswoman Hannah Mendoza in Episode 5 of her Confessions of a Female Founder podcast<\/a>, Meghan said: “I think a lot of people when they hear mushrooms, they go ‘OK, she’s talking about being hippie-dippy, grounded in all these things’.<\/p>\n “If you aren’t familiar with adaptogens, you can go to this place of ‘Oh, it’s feeling a little psychedelic and super woo-woo’.”<\/p>\n She added that she also used an Ayurvedic practitioner during both of her pregnancies.<\/p>\n This week also saw Meghan post a rare picture of Prince Archie<\/a> to celebrate his sixth birthday. <\/p>\n Sharing the stunning picture on social media, the Duchess of Sussex celebrated her “sweet boy”, while\u00a0Harry missed the celebrations<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Prince is currently launching his\u00a0Pledge to Invest scheme<\/a>\u00a0in collaboration with the\u00a0Diana Award<\/a> in Las Vegas<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"MEGHAN Markle’s lawyer has broken his silence after a fan
