Meghan Markle recently surprised a budding podcaster who had criticized her with a heartfelt handwritten note, praising her for using her voice to uplift others.

Allie Scharf, a podcast host and mother from New York, who produces a mental health-focused podcast, had slammed Markle’s new Netflix series, Love, Meghan.

“Oh guys I’m genuinely concerned for Meghan. I’m not a Meghan hater at all. It feels like a Blake Lively situation. I understand that some people think she’s inauthentic. I get that. I’m so scared for her that this Netflix show will make those claims stronger. From the trailer, it looks like it might,” she said.

Markle sent the note after discovering Scharf’s show through a mutual connection.

The handwritten note, penned on Markle’s signature stationery, praised Scharf’s vulnerability and bravery. “Your voice matters. What you’re doing is important. Keep going,” the Duchess wrote.

The gesture has drawn praise from fans online, with many applauding Markle for taking the time to support independent creators.

Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, have remained largely out of the public eye in recent months, but she is preparing to relaunch her media presence with new audio and video projects under their Archewell Productions banner.

Markle’s show was met with near-unanimously bad reviews but was renewed by Netflix for a second season.
