Tales of a Grifter - The Charlatan Duchess
Tales of a Grifter - (MMTCD) The Charlatan Duchess, is a secret Facebook group that launched a worldwide phenomenon in January 2018. The group was the brainchild of an unnamed woman in the United Kingdom, who provides a safe place for people who oppose the marriage of Meghan Markle and Prince Henry of Wales. Starting out as a public cyber gathering place for like-minds, it soon became evident that the group was going to undertake subject matter that would trigger rhetoric from both Markle supporters and detractors. Members bring forth readily available articles/information from the Internet gathering to privately discuss their views. The group is responsible for creating the hashtag #TheCharlatanDuchess and pushing the hashtag #Megxit. Over the past year and a half, the group has been featured in a number of digital media publications from all over the world. The Charlatan Duchess brand (TM), boasts thousands of members on their varied social media platforms. The "Grifter" part in the name of the group makes reference to Markle's questionable past and the present spending habits on the backs of the British taxpayers.
