Chrishell Stause issued a harsh rebuke of Bethenny Frankel’s criticism of Meghan Markle as well as her subsequent apology.
Frankel took to Twitter hours before Markle and Prince Harry's explosive sit-down interview with Oprah Winfrey on Sunday to lambaste the Duchess of Sussex for complaining about what appears to be a glamorous and highly privileged life as a royal.
"Cry me a river...the plight of being a game show host, fairly unknown actress, to suffering in a palace, w tiaras & 7 figure weddings for TWO WHOLE YEARS to being a household name w @Oprah on speed dial, fetching 7 m for interviews, hundreds of millions in media deals," The "Real Housewives" star wrote.

Stause, however, took issue with this comment and issued a few jabs of her own directed at Frankel.
"Not a white housewife comparing her struggle to Meghan’s. A woman of color joining the Royal Family. It’s the delusion for me," she wrote in response to the tweet. "Everyone is working overtime trying to silence her. Let us hear what she has to say!"

Although Frankel did not respond to the "Selling Sunset" star’s harsh words, she issued an apology to Markle hours after the interview aired.
"I watched M & H sit down. Emotional distress & racism must feel suffocating & powerless. I’m a polarizing, unfiltered(often to a fault)flawed person w a voice," Frankel tweeted. "When I heard of the interview, during a pandemic, it felt like a surprising choice. I’m sorry if it hurt or offended you."

And yet you used it on your huge platform to let it be known Meghan should be silenced. When I woke up to your asinine comparison, during a pandemic, it felt like a surprising choice."
Stause offered some thoughts of her own on the interview as well.
