Jameela Jamill is setting the record straight on reports that she’s quarantining with her new “best friend,” Meghan Markle, and Prince Harry in their new Santa Barbara home.
The Good Place star went on Twitter to sharing a screenshot of an article with a headline that reads, “Meghan Markle’s new best friend? Luvvie Jameela Jamill ‘quarantines’ with Harry and Meghan,” writing, “LOL. Went to a hotel in SB for a romantic getaway with my boyfriend… and have seen 8 days of articles with increasingly ridiculous stories, none of which are consistent, none of which make sense… (all to now create the lie that she controls me and coordinates my every move).”
“I’ve met this woman once. Ever. #BestFriends These articles are a strategy to now blame her for MY every word and move. And to attempt to discredit my calling them out as if it isn’t a *FACT* that they bully and harass her for clicks, to feed Britain’s already sturdy xenophobia,” she added in another tweet.
Jameela, who’s also an outspoken activist, went on to defend Meghan against the British media’s coverage of her, tweeting, “As the conversation around racism in UK media is heating up, they are scrambling to justify years of racially motivated abuse/harassment by turning the public against her based on lies and rumors. Remember how they printed she would “thicken the Royal blue blood with EXOTIC DNA?” “
On Wednesday (September 2), Meghan and Harry announced that they had signed a multi-year deal with Netflix – which involves producing scripted series, docu-series, documentaries, features and children’s programming – following stepping down as senior member of the Royal family.
“Our focus will be on creating content that informs but also gives hope,” the couple said in a statement.
“As new parents, making inspirational family programming is also important to us,” they continued, adding that Netflix’s “unprecedented reach will help us share impactful content that unlocks action.”
Jameela again went on the platform to defend the couple, retweeting an article of the deal announcement, and writing, “Oh no! But how is everyone going to keep perpetuating the lie that they live off British tax payers?! It’s so exciting to see how this will somehow be twisted.”
