• Ann Widdecombe was compelled to respond to Meghan Markle’s allegations of palace leaks.
• She accused the Duchess of Cambridge’s former fiancee of “deliberately peddling conspiracy theories”.
• The former cabinet minister said her comments on Celebrity Big Brother were not about race.

Ann Widdecombe, a former cabinet minister and Conservative lawmaker, was compelled to respond to Meghan Markle‘s allegations of palace leaks.

In her clapback, Ms. Widdecombe charged Meghan Markle of “deliberately peddling conspiracy theories.”

For those who are unaware, Ms. Widdecombe entered the discussion when a footage from her time on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018 was shown.

She called Meghan Markle “trouble” at the time and said she thinks she “must be neurotic” if she thinks Widdecombe was given any instructions on what to say.

She gave an official statement to The Sun that said, “If she doesn’t believe that then she is deliberately peddling conspiracy theories which have no basis in fact. I did say it on Big Brother but it was not about race.”

“It was, in fact, that she was a moderately successful Hollywood actress who never lived in this country and didn’t know the first thing about the Royal Family and had already been divorced after two years of marriage.”

“Bearing in mind the challenge of marrying into royals I said she would be trouble, but social media went into a spin. How on Earth that has anything to do with Buckingham Palace, I can’t imagine.”
