The Markle Effect

A castle built on sand. Corrupted by one persons touch. To be royally f*cked up. To rot from the inside.

She swanned in and acted as though she was Queen. We thought the extra publicty would be beneficial. In truth the whole thing turned to sh*t. They call it The Markle Effect. We are royally f*cked.
