“Like who is this girl Meghan Markle?”

Chris Rock took a brutal swipe at Meghan Markle during his most recent Netflix stand-up special, Rock’s Selective Outrage. 

The episode was broadcast live on Saturday where he cracked jokes about a number of things including the Kardashians, the infamous Oscars slap with Will Smith and the Duchess of Sussex.

Here’s what he had to say about Meghan Markle – take a listen.

He slated claims she made in the interview with Oprah Winfrey that the royal family were racist.

In the interview that was broadcasted in March 2021, Meghan said that a senior member of the royal family had “concerns” over “how dark” her unborn child’s skin would be.

But, Rock said that a lot of her experiences are just “in-law sh*t.”

He said: “Like who is this girl Meghan Markle?”

“Seems like a nice lady, just complaining. Like didn’t she hit the light-skinned lottery?

“You didn’t google these mother**kers?”

He mocked Meghan again by repeating her claims: “’Oprah, they’re so racist they wanted to know how brown the baby was going to be’ – I’m like, that’s not racist, because even black people want to know how brown the baby going to be.’”

Rock then included a jab about the Kardashian fam saying: “Meghan Markle, I know the dilemma.

“I’m like, ‘if you black and you wanted to be accepted by your white in-laws then you need to marry a Kardashian because they accept everybody.’”
