RIGHT-wing US activist Candace Owens has branded Meghan Markle a witch for using African children as a backdrop to moan about her privileged life.
Owens, 30, who is an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump, lashed out at the Duchess, 38, following the explosive ITV documentary Harry & Meghan: An African Journey.
Candace Owens called Meghan Markle a ‘witch’ and slammed Harry fro mentioning his mother’s death on the royal tour of Africa
In the doc, Meghan spoke candidly about her struggles with fame since she married into the British royal family while on her tour of southern Africa.
American activist Owens tweeted out her fury at the former Suits actress saying her comments were offensive.
She wrote: Using African children as a backdrop to complain about your over-privileged life is offensive.
The 30-year-old firebrand, who is married to a British hedge funder, also took aim at Prince Harry, 35, for comparing the intense media interest in his late-mother Diana to his own situation.
Owens tweeted: Invoking your own mother’s tragic death to demand the press stop calling out your hypocritical wife is downright disgusting.
But the American was not finished.
She ended her tweet with: Meghan Markle is a witch. Harry is under her spell.

When my world got dark, you turned the light on
Last year, Owens launched the Blexit movement which encourages African Americans to walk away from the left-leaning Democratic party
In August, she married Brit financier George Farmer the son of conservative peer Lord Farmer.
She is a vocal supporter of the Republican party and US President Trump.
In an Instagram post last week, she posted a picture of Trump, her new husband and herself.
Owens captioned the snap: The only person I love more than the man on my left (Trump), is the man on my right (Farmer).
Meghan appeared emotionalduring her interviewwith ITV’s Tom Bradby in Sunday’s doc.
Asked about the pressure of royal life, she said: “Look, any woman especially when they are pregnant youre really vulnerable and so that was made really challenging, and then when you have a newborn you know
“And especially as a woman, its a lot. So you add this on top of just trying to be a new mom or trying to be a newlywed its, well
“And, also thank you for asking, because not many people have asked if Im OK. But its a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes.”
Harry revealed he still feels the “festering wounds” left by his mother’s death and that he is constantly reminded of her during royal tours.
The dad-of-one was able to follow in her footsteps during the tour, as he worked with the charity HALO clearing landmines.
He said: Its been quite emotional retracing my mothers steps, 22 years on. Lets finish what was started.
Following Prince Harry as he continued his mothers work, Tom asked him if her death was still painful.
He asked: Do you feel at peace in a way yet? Or is it still a sort of wound that festers?
Revealing the emotional impact of Princess Dianas death, even more than two decades later, Prince Harry said: I think probably a wound that festers.
I think being part of this family, in this role, in this job, every single time I see a camera, every single time I hear a click, every single time I see a flash it takes me straight back so in that respect its the worst reminder of her life as opposed to the best.
Being here now 22 years later trying to finish what she started will be incredibly emotional but everything that I do reminds me of her.
But as I said with the role, with the job, and the sort of pressures that come with that I get reminded of the bad stuff, unfortunately.
