Meghan Markle is branded out of touch by an elderly local in Montecito.
The Duchess of Sussex, as reported by local journalist Richard Mineards, did not allow an old neighbour into her house when he wanted to offer her an introductory documentary on the area.
He said: "There was even this anecdote of an elderly neighbour who wanted to give her a documentary he had made on local history. The old man never got past the gate."
According to Mail, Mr Mineards claimed that Meghan likes to be a ‘distant’ neighbour unlike others in Montecito.
The neighbour told Mineards: "She cultivates a very controlled image. She pays attention to every appearance, every word, every gesture.
"And here in Montecito, we appreciate simple people, even famous ones.
"Oprah Winfrey, for example, shows up at charity events. Meghan doesn't play the community game,” it is revealed.
