Meghan Markle angered South Africans when she indirectly compared herself to struggle stalwart and icon Nelson Mandela.

During an interview Meghan recalled how one of the production members at an event they attended, approached her and told her that South Africans compared her wedding to a significant historical moment in the country.

She said the person told her that on her wedding South Africans rejoiced and danced in the streets, the same way they did when Mandela was released from prison.

Madiba’s grandson, Mandla Mandela said Nelson Mandela’s release was a celebration of overcoming oppression and apartheid thus it can not be equated to a wedding.
