Meghan Markle is SO over: MAUREEN CALLAHAN reveals latest humiliation... as she sinks to irrelevant new low in her American homeland

Could the long-promised era of the Markle Sparkle actually, finally be done?

Alas. The stars have not aligned, the data is trending downward and the public no longer cares to rubberneck.

Look no further than Meghan's public speech in Geneva last month, with some critics advising her to hire a 'rent-a-crowd' after what appeared to be an abysmally low turnout.

There she stood, behind a podium in her best black pantsuit, lecturing a crowd of stragglers and random foreign ministers about the dangers social media poses to children.

Of course, this was right after Meghan had posted a photo, to social media, of her daughter sitting at her feet with her back to the camera, captioned 'Mama's little helper'.

She loves a cliché, this one. It all speaks to a highly unoriginal mind, one that refuses to take hard facts — say, sparse public plazas, be they in Switzerland or Australia, barriers set up for fans who don't seem to exist — and accept her losses.

Accept the memo from the global public at large: Please go away.

A bombshell report in Newsweek shows just how far Meghan has fallen: Among Americans, her popularity has plummeted in tandem with online visits to her As Ever shop — you know, the one from which Netflix recently severed ties after reportedly left with $10 million in unsold stock.

'Meghan was liked by 29 percent and disliked by 27 percent of respondents in a poll of around 1,300 Americans conducted by YouGov over the first three months of 2026, giving her a net rating of +2,' Newsweek reports.

'These figures represent a sharp drop from the third quarter of 2025, when Meghan was liked by 37 percent and disliked by 22 percent of respondents, giving her a net approval rating of +15. That equates to a 13-point decline over two quarters.'

Staggering. Undeniable. The duchess is increasingly disliked in her native America.

The land to which she fled for freedom, where once she had the ear of Oprah and the multi-million dollar backing of Netflix and Spotify.

Now? She has a faded realm of expiring jam, wickless candles and a hapless husband.

Perhaps it explains why Meghan has gone back on her public assertion that overly expensive candles are 'obnoxious'.

'There are no $100 candles on my site,' Meghan said in 2016, back when she had a lifestyle blog called The Tig. 'That's so obnoxious.'

Yes, it is. Just as it's on brand for our hypocritical duchess to not only contradict herself but to do so in a very obnoxious fashion.

For over at As Ever, Meghan's selling a Signature Scent Collection, a set of four candles branded as 'a collection for every moment', for $256. Long matches included.

Should that price be out of the average consumer's reach — and, with gas at about $4.50 a gallon, it is — consider Meghan's more affordable options: The Garden Duo or The Cozy Duo candle sets, retailing for $128 each.

'I've always crafted it' — meaning The Tig — 'as aspirational girl next door. Like, you can aspire for it but totally attain it, too,' she said in 2016.

This, by the way, was the same year she and Harry began dating.

And she wonders why she has so many credibility and likability problems.

It's all part of Meghan's undeniable pattern, with Harry's help, of saying and doing things that to many of us are, in the truest sense of the word, unbelievable.

Such as: Claiming that, before meeting Harry, she had only a glancing sense of the British Royal Family — because Americans, as she asserted in that famous 2017 joint interview upon announcing their engagement — just have never been exposed to them.

As Harry sat by, staring blankly with Meghan clutching his hand on her lap, like a good little hostage, she said the following with a straight face:

'Because I'm from the States, you don't grow up with the same understanding of the royal family. And so, while I now understand very clearly that there's a global interest there, I didn't know much about him.'

Shades of Yoko Ono to John Lennon upon their meeting: 'So, what do you do?'

And of course, who could forget Meghan's heavy insinuation, to Oprah, that the royals were racist, only for Harry to later deny that was ever suggested — even though he was sitting right next to Meghan and did not push back.

Harry, in his January 2023 interview with Tom Bradby, promoting his memoir Spare:

Bradby: 'In the Oprah interview, you accuse members of your family of racism.'

Harry: 'No I didn't. The British press said that, right? Did Meghan ever mention "they're racists"?'

Is it any wonder that Meghan's metrics in America are falling precipitously, with Newsweek reporting that, in January, her total number of online visits to As Ever hit 268,000, but her US visits dropped to a mere 89,000 — and those numbers don't include minutes spent on her site or purchases made?

All this, despite Meghan's post on Instagram, in April, that Leos — she has a Leo star sign — were seeing the end of 'the hardest seven years' of their lives.

To which we can only say: Buckle up, buttercup!
