Chrissy Teigen has been a devoted ally to Meghan Markle amidst her and Harry's controversial departure from their royal duties and moving to the U.S.
Prior to Markle's tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey over the weekend, Teigen shared a warning to critics of the Duchess of Sussex.
"This meghan markle sh*t is hitting too close to home for me," said Teigen, who became concerned for Markle's health.
"These people won't stop until she miscarries. f'king stop it."

Both women—who met as models on the game show Deal Or No Deal in 2007—have experienced pregnancy loss.
Markle revealed in a moving New York Times essay she suffered a miscarriage in July 2020.
The child would have been a sibling to her and Harry's firstborn, Archie.
"Losing a child means carrying an almost unbearable grief, experienced by many but talked about by few," she wrote in her roughly 1,000-word essay.
"In the pain of our loss, my husband and I discovered that in a room of 100 women, 10 to 20 of them will have suffered from miscarriage."
"Yet despite the staggering commonality of this pain, the conversation remains taboo, riddled with (unwarranted) shame, and perpetuating a cycle of solitary mourning."
The grief was all-too-familiar for Teigen, who herself suffered a pregnancy loss late last September.
The supermodel and cookbook author opened up about the loss of her and her husband John Legend's unborn son they named "Jack" in an emotional essay on Medium—where she described the experience as "utter and complete sadness."
Teigen—who had previously been diagnosed with partial placenta abruption—revisited her painful memory last month on Instagram when Jack's due date was expected to have been.
She wrote:
"He would have been here any day now - if he were like Luna and Miles [her other children], I'd probably be holding him as we speak."
"I am so full of regret that I didn't look at his face when he was born. I was so scared of seeing him in my nightmares that I forgot about seeing him in my dreams. I hurt every day from that remorse."
"This month is a rough reminder and to be honest, I thought the worst was over but I guess life and emotions aren't on any sort of schedule."
Twitter backed Teigen's concern for Markle and they admonished the persistent harassment of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex by the royals and the media.
It's disgusting and half of it is because she's black. I haven't seen a SINGLE thing she's done wrong - she's being attacked because she's literally the first black American to marry a prince. Disgusting and unwarranted.

The British Media AND The British Royal Family are Rancid. The Big BBC allowed one of his presenters to call her child a chimpanzee just the very day he was born. Abd the British Royal Family never once condemned it. They have never once defended her. Because they instigate it. pic.twitter.com/9LG157Myjr

EXACTLY!!! THAT is the reason they left Britain & stepped away from things. Poor Harry was terrified that what happened to his mom would happen to them. He said it caused them SO much stress! LEAVE them alone to have a healthy baby & a life without their BS.

You are so correct! Keep speaking the truth, Chrissy. There are probably some British rednecks...they sound like the GOP rednecks here in TN...as long as there are rednecks, racism will continue...it's heartbreaking.

Thank you Chrissy ... the British media and the royal family must have done something so bad when she was still inside this hell that today they are threatening to kill her like they killed Diana. pic.twitter.com/8UsJNRYbAn

We hope she will endure as she did with Archie! They put her through the same when they learnt that she was expecting Archie back in 2018. You can do this Meg! We look forward to hearing about a safe delivery of a beautiful healthy baby. ❤
